Sounds like it was a good plaice to be.
Oh well played sir! Housemartins reference and a fish pun in the same short post!Sounds like it was a good plaice to be.
Went to see Paul Heaton last night. Amazing gig with superb support from The Zutons.
Before I went, I saw the setlist for Glasgow. We had the same apart from the intro song. In Glasgow they had Flower of Scotland. So I wondered … would he … and yes, he did.
As they were coming on stage we had GOSBTS. I started singing with ‘Now is the time for marching…’ - which seemed to confuse the hell out of the people near me. Unfortunately, I didn’t hear anyone join in, which was a shame.
The young girl - Rianne Downey - he found on YouTube to join the band is a master stroke. Incredible voice and suits the songs perfectly.
Anyway, it was a fantastic night filled with and incredible array of songs going back to the Housemartin days.
Paul’s new solo album is also bloody excellent btw.
Having a post gig beer in Hammersmith after tonight’s gig. Absolutely brilliant show, what a back-catalogue that man has.Just back from Hammersmith.
We were treated to ' maybe it's because I'm a Londoner'
Apart from that it was a bloody brilliant gig!
