We were considering going to see Thomas Dolby at the Sub Rooms, Stroud, on Friday. Frankly, £38.50 a head seems expensive for someone very popular 40 years ago. I think we may take out our daughter and granddaughter for a slap-up meal instead. Go for a curry, then you’ll still hear ‘Windpower’ ….  |

He held it in, but you could tell he wasn't really. They ended up switching out one song because he didn't think the piano could cope with whatever they were planning to play and we got Here's The Tender Coming instead (I wasn't unhappy about that). Sounds like a fine result. I don't understand extreme negative views (like Nick's) of the band. I've seen them a dozen times or more and I think they're one of the best bands I've ever seen live -in all their formats - 4 piece, 5-piece, 7-piece, 12-piece, with Orchestra etc. As always, horses for courses, I'm sure. How on earth is that extreme? I merely described factually the stage set up and said that I left early hinting that I didnt enjoy it. I certainly wouldnt want to be extreme anyway. I have very rarely said I dont like something but on the few occasions I have the whole place seems to go into meltdown. I think your views are far more extreme than mine , just at the other end of the scale (and off it!). I think that this was the one and only time that I have commented on the band because I really arent interested in them. Read my last sentence again, and calm tf down, man. |

Yes, they played King of Rome at the end of their set. Wonderful! Best heard with the Brighouse and Rastrick Brass Band. as at the BBC2 2012 Folk Awards |
