Get in there....

Wonder how much you will get out of him, on a 10.30, punches bass player by 10.35, stumbles off at 10.52

Still be worth it

He has been on pretty good form lately. Guess I have now jinxed this having said that!

Can anyone help me: every evening, an odour resembling that of hot dogs permeates my bedroom. I'm at my wits' end.....

We did a nifty preview for it - looking forward to the show immensely, pretty sure I missed the last one in Brighton.

Seen them a few times and it's always surreal. The Old Market fire alarm and his solo thingy at the West Hill Community Centre come to mind. The later involved him walking into the kitchenette behind the stage, and sitting down, whilst he continued to sing.

There's also a screening of a new Fall film at the Westhill Hall in the same week. I can't find the details right now but will post them when I do.

Great preview- and some Perverted By Language which is one of their best. Eat Yourself Fitter!

Last time he was at The Concorde he forgot which side of the stage to exit from and ended up battling with the curtains and the venue wall.

Never understood how Brix went from being a mega sexy part of the band to being in a clothes show with Gok Wan. Definitely one of the oddest liaisons of the 80s

via a relationship with Nigel Kennedy
just like to add my recommendation for the current line up live
bound to be the kiss of death I know
but they have been reliable lately

Agreed, I saw them around May or June, the venue was an odd one, it was the bar that is below Stamford Bridge! They were on top form that night.

I too am looking forward to seeing them at the Concorde and I will also be going to the screening of the film at the Westhill on the Tuesday.

Stephen Hanley's recently published book The Big Midweek is a great read and gives a fascinating insight into how The Fall work. There is quite a lot in there about Brix's arrival, her time in The Fall, the break up and most extraordinary that she came back for a second spell.

Also saw them at Stamford Bridge and thought they were great- also helped by an excellent venue with superb sound.

Thanks for that link. Did not know much about the film except that tickets were on sale at Resident.
