Gigs coming up

They are probably shit now.

But at the end of the 80s early 90s they were immense.

This is not shit.

Cranky old man thinks your band is shit, Black Francis would be gutted.

Like them or not the pixies are clearly not shit.

They’re still rapid, even if Kim is gone.

Their new album is poor in my view.

ZZ Top playing here 28 July.

Live

Other than their wonderful cover of Head On I don’t see many connections with Jesus and Mary Chain.

Husker Du, Pere Ubu and Patti Smith are more obvious in my view but like all great bands they were very much their own thing.

I remember reading an interview with Joey Santiago in which he quoted The Ventures as an influence.

That should be an interesting gig.

Have you heard Messa? Intro to their album reminds me of Sunn O))))

Ticket secured for the Aphex Twin, London June 3. Giddy as fuck.
