He hasn’t made it on to the website or Wikipedia yet. Think he was called Neil. Particularly good on a wonderful performance of Dingly Dell. Sounds promising. I'm off to see the band in November. |

Lovely gig by Lindisfarne at the Queen’s Hall in Edinburgh. Good mixture of the hits and early album tracks (Scarecrow Ong, Passing Ghosts, Ciity Song), with a few rare Alan Hull Songs (Squire). Fun that Train in D Major has now become Train in E Major because of the passing of the years. All in all, great fun as usual. It always seems like catching up with old friends and you leave feeling better than when you went in. (Excellent new bass player, didn’t catch his name.) Hadn't realised that Ian Thomson had left the band. He'd been with them since the mid-Nineties. Good to know the new fellow seems to be settling in, though. |

I noticed that more than one band made comments about 'for those who still listen to CDs...' or something of that ilk from the stage, which I don't remember before, which suggests that they are getting more people saying 'but I don't have a CD player' to them. Joe Broughton gave a good rundown of how streaming income compared to the purchase of one CD which although not news to me, seemed to be to a number of people around ("To give us the same income as the purchase of one CD you'd have to listen to our CD all day every day for 10 years on Spotify. I've heard our CDs and trust me, you don't want to do that!"). CDs remain the most popular physical format of music (and for good reason). The death of CDs is a fiction. I believe it is, but it is one of several being pushed as 'what modern people want.' I recently bought a 'new' used car, and it took a long while to find one with a CD player. (best car I've ever owned by the way). Computers tend not to have CD burners too. Music, books, movies, games are all being pushed towards digital as opposed to physical format. The worry is streaming as opposed to downloading. You never own a copy of the item you are, essentially, renting. A steady income stream for those that have the rights to the material, which is not always the creative person, and often, without their agreement or even knowledge. I am currently awaiting the delivery of nine albums, including three Big Star CD's - which I'm looking forward to hearing. I'm doing my bit. |
