How was it? I was a huge Mozzer fan until he came out as supporting of 'For Britain'. I note that he has been quiet on that front lately. Perhaps he realises that a lot of his audience feel completely alienated by his views.
I genuinely miss going to see him.

Years ago, you could stand on the mezzanine above the stage at the Jazz Cafe. We were doing that one night, grooving to the DJ before the JB's set. I dropped my beer which smashed & dropped through the mez onto the drum kit delaying the start by half an hour. If you enjoyed being on the mezzanine back in the day, then soz. It was me who killied it.

they reconfigured it when the new people took over too.The artist used to walk through the restaurant to get down the stairs to the stage. Its now out behind the stage so no more opportunities for awkward high 5s with acts that probably have better things to do than be touched by the public half way through their portion of sticky chicken wings!!
Saw Suede on Friday at Southampton, they were outstanding and despite being excellent first time round they just keep getting better with this second stint. Don't know how Brett has preserved both his voice and fitness levels so well after all these years, he just doesn't stop running around for the entirety of the gig...well apart from the 2 acoustic tracks.
If I see a better gig this year I'll be surprised, well worth checking out and they certainly don't live off former glories.
Got Warrington Runcorn New Town Development Plan (all said in a John Peel voice) coming up this weekend in Brighton, should be ace.

Same goes for Shed Seven, catch them while you can. Rick is still tearing it up, and their new material is at least as good as the old hits.If I see a better gig this year I'll be surprised, well worth checking out and they certainly don't live off former glories.

It's not really a gig as such but I'm off to see Public Service Broadcasting's "Pitch Black Playback" at Riverside Studios in London.
Looking forward to it; it's the 10th anniversary of the release of their debut album "Inform Educate Entertain" and it is played through surround sound cinema-type system (in the dark, and just the music, no band!) followed by a Q & A with J. Willgoose Esq. Never seen this before and now can't wait.
