The Lost Trades tonight at Exeter Phoenix. Not seen them before, but going with a couple of friends.  From a couple of YT videos I have seen they look to be a pleasant singer/songwriter  Americana-type band.

Nice NPR Tiny Desk Concert, Robert Plant and Suzi Dian,  showed up on YT today. I like these concerts, I have come to enjoy some new things by watching them.

Track and vid of the year?

The mighty Hen Ogledd (Richard Dawson et al) with Scales Will Fall.  

Don't skimp - give it the full 8 and a half...it even goes all Sun Ra at one point.  Oof!

So...I'm currently going through my currently annual 'Do I really wanna see Neil one more time' arguments with myself.

Not seen Elvis since Glasto '86 when he was in the crowd next to me (who was admittedly somewhat chemically enhanced but had this confirmed by neighbours) watching t'Pogues.  Elvis was in his mad hairy beardy stage.  Never seen him live but am not actively opposed to doing so.

I think that would have given it a lot more credibility.  Nobody will care about my concerns, mind...I'm sure they'll do well.  You going?


I'd love to, but I can't see it happening unless they add a Birmingham date.

Mike had wanted to get Anto on board, but he had prior commitments.

Lindisfarne in Cardiff last night. The last time I was in this venue (The Tramshed) it was all standing, for Turin Brakes. This time seats were in abundance to cater for the majority of the audience. It was a fine concert, full of crowd pleasers from the back catalogue, along with one or two album tracks that may not have been known by the casual fan.

Dave Hull-Denholm sang his heart out, taking lead vocals on most of the songs, including a spellbinding 'Winter Song'. A finale of 'Meet Me on the Corner', 'Run for Home' and 'Clear White Light' sent everybody home with smiles on their faces.

And a brand new Soft Machine album  in early 2026.

They are actually calling themselves Soft Machine again, it seems, after diversions into  other appelations.

I'd like the vinyl but the price is a bit silly.
