Ian - I know you meant no harm, but I guess the reason no-one is discussing concerts yet is because not all of us have seen them yet (?!)
Sorry to sound like a geek or a nark, but if you've seen the gig and the band were fab/bad/dressed like Roman gladiators/whatever, please don't mail the list yet - it might spoil the surprise.
Could I suggest that people posting about gigs mention this fact in the subject line? I am sorry, but I do want to hear about other gigs and many other people do as well, although I have observed that enthusiasm in recalling the gigs in #sinister is met with stony silence or expressions of pain, even hatred. Those who don't wish to find out about them can press that cute fluffy delete button. I don't want to wait until they have toured central America before I hear how Perth was (hint, hint). A Belle and Sebastian list where we don't discuss the only thing they have done for ages??? Tsk tsk. It does look as if they are changing their clothes between gigs. Whew! But not the set list (not so good...especially for the three Americans who are going to EVERY SINGLE GIG). They are the reason St*art faltered at the start of Fox in the Snow. He was self-conscious that they knew what he was going to sing and habitually sit in the front row. Bless them.#sinister Oh, and Jonathan David is an extremely good song. I have changed my mind. Stevie is now in tune. You heard it here first.
