[Music] The Live Music thread

[Wozza]

I saw Alessandro Cortini supported by Marta Salogni last night.

Beatless, ambient sets.

Around a third of the audience was standing with their eyes closed. One guy at the front was tripping, punching the air.

Good times.

I follow Daniel Avery (who’s done an album with Cortini) and I think he’s doing some gigs with Cortini as well. Sounds great.

Wild boys never hit a note.

A graph line of singing ability v commercial success would be an outlier that would make THAT season against Palace look normal.


a terrible singer

I reckon the drummer's mum could hold a tune better.


....quite like 'Skin Trade' and 'Notorious ' though.


Particularly 'Notorious', that's a banger.

Part of me would love to see him try to sing that live.... It will be hilarious.

I’ve seen them before and, to put it simply, I find them great fun and and it’s a Friday night to boot. Ticket prices have gone up a lot since the last time I saw them…plus there are a number of different packages you can now get.

I agree he doesn’t have the best tone, but SLB learned to control his voice many years ago. Now much, much more rigid on stage, mind. And truly terrible patter between songs.

But what songs!

Incredible to think that a young Brummie band knocked out those bangers, when today’s hits require huge teams of writers and producers.

Actually I’m currently wearing a Duran Duran T-shirt (on the way to Southampton)… under my jumper.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Tell us more!

He’d been talking about Shane Magowan’s funeral.

Someone must have called out ‘Pogue Mahone’, because he said ‘Pogue Mahone, is that the best you’ve got, Brighton?’

I told him it was.

He's done some great work with the very wonderful Confidence Man also. Speaking of which, did you go and see them in Berlin the other night HT?

I didn’t. I haven't really listened to them much to be fair. Maybe I should change this.

I do love that story Noel Gallagher tells about meeting them in Aus. It’s on YouTube.

Yup, fair made me chuckle

You should absolutely change that HT. They are brilliant fun.

Don’t know if anyone noticed - I got a name check tonight.

You're not the photographer are you?
