Chas n Dave - Thursday 1st December, De La Warr Pavilion, Bexhill On Sea

[redoubtable seagull]

Not for me, but I did see the Slaves at the De La Warr last week, which was fun.

I've got all White Noise albums, Watching paint dry is a particular favourite album.

Their difficult second album, watching the grass grow, was somewhat meandering though.

Tickets booked for 28 Dec at Concorde 2, I've bought a flat cap and everything.

Seen them a few times live at Worthing and they were very good . When we lost to Spurs in the FA Cup nearly every pub we went into seemed to continually play Spurs are on their way to Wembley.

IIRC they were highly respected session musicians in the 1970s. Both played on Labi Siffre's 'I got the', later used as a main sample in Eminem's 'My name is'.

Cockernee? You mean rockernee!

It took a nano second to agree to go to this when suggested and tickets are still available for what can only be described as the most exciting thing to happen in Bexhill in a long time. This will be the 4th Chas n Dave gig I will have been to and will mean I will have seen them live in Hastings, Bexhill, Eastbourne and Brighton. (I was due to see in Tunbridge Wells on Monday May 13th 2013, but something else cropped up that night)

Anyone else going?

Sad life you lead, then......you've suffered them before and still go back for more ?
Thought they'd split, anyway ?

[Thought they'd split, anyway ?

They did, but they decided to come back for one final tour..............5 years later they're still touring.

Random music fact of the day?

Quite possibly.

As an added music trivia bonus (non-C&D related), the piano Freddy Mercury played while recording Bohemian Rhapsody was the same one that Paul McCartney used for Hey Jude.

My Favourite is that Lemmy wrote Motorhead using a guitar that Roy Wood lent him

There were absolutely brilliant last night if you're seeing them at the Concorde 2 on December 28th, have fun.
