That Kate Bush Documentary Last Night

[Cheeky Monkey]

Fascinating programme with some interesting pundits - Lydon, Neil Gaiman, Brett Anderson etc. Almost wish I'd tried for tickets now.

There's always fake Kate Bush on 20th September.

Watched the first 10 minutes on iPlayer this morning before the train. Does Tori Amos thank her for single-handedly making her rich and famous?

Interesting programme. I've got a lot of time for Kate Bush.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

A really interesting programme - she is a unique talent. I failed to get tickets, unfortunately, I would love to have gone to see her live.

The Old Grey Whistle Test that followed was also excellent viewing, some real blasts from the past.

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

A mate of mine still has 2 tickets for her opening night free. The downside is they're the £150 ones, hence ruling me out sadly.

If anyone's interested I'll see what I can do.*



*with the caveat that he hasn't sold them already.

I thought about it for a minute...but no, £150 (or £300 for two) rules me out too. Thanks for the heads up though, CC.

Great programme, her natural talent and attitude towards letting her music do all the talking contrasts completely with all this X Factor mediocrity we see nowadays.

Great program - and of course my claim to fame is that she is a local girl to
where I live (Orpington in Kent). Think she was brought up in Bexley.

were there any (current) interviews with KB herself?

Not hangers on / soundbites from peeps who probably weren't even alive when she was in the charts..?

She used to live in Sussex somewhere, near Chailey I think, about 12 years ago. Mate of mine did some carpentry work for her. Dunno if she is still there

That's right. I have a friend who knew her at school.

Lucky friend. Although I'd imagine she would have been quite quiet/reserved at school.

My friend is not a bloke. She liked her, but says she was quiet as you say but talented. No surprises there really. I think, but I may have remembered incorrectly, that it was a girls school.

Isn't there an old saying "One in Kate Bush is worth two in the hand"?
