Sinister: Are You Festive? (I)
Hi All, Sorry for delay in Reporting Back. Obviously the people who went to the Glasgow gig are just SO uncool. Or possibly they only got near a computer this evening. And they may have been too busy spending the last four days getting pished with videostars & popstars to think about posting. You know, You Have To Stop Living To Start Writing. Did someone ask for a setlist? if so, here comes a scan: Here Comes The Sun Theres Too Much Love Magic Of A Kind Word Turn, Turn, Turn Alone Again Or Creeque Alley Baby Judy & The Dream Of Horses Dirty Dream Number 2 * Cool For Cats Orangutang Space Oddity The Boy With The Arab Strap The Fox In The Snow O Come O Come Emmanuel Dylan In The Movies Time Of The Season The Wrong Girl Sleep The Clock Around The Boys Are Back In Town Go off. Wait for lots of applause. Come back and do ..... + Merry Xmas (War Is Over) Legal Man * Lazy Line Painter Jane Everyday People * (* They didn't actually get around to playing these. The last two probably got deleted due to the lengthy raffle drawing/prize distributing process) (+ cheeky Orang-utans!) No songs by Free. This unnecessary for most listees I'm sure but anyway: Here Comes The Sun = The Beatles, Turn, Turn, Turn = The Byrds (or Pete Seeger before that), Alone Again Or = Love, Creeque Alley = The Mamas & Papas, Baby = Gal Costa, Cool For Cats = Squeeze, Orangutang = Serge Gainsbourg, Space Oddity = David Bowie, O Come, O Come, Emmanuel = a rather complex provenance according to my copy of Hymns Ancient & Modern!, Time Of The Season = The Zombies, The Boys Are Back In Town = Thin Lizzy, Merry Xmas (War Is Over) = John Lennon. A fantastic gig - not sure yet if the best of the 9? I have attended but nonetheless everso very special, because of the choice of songs played/covered, the atmosphere, the party pieces, the good cause it was all for. I think a more detailed description may have to wait for later, for now I'll just say that I spent a fantastic (or should that be fandabidozie (sp?) seeing as its the panto season) few days in the city of Glasgow due in no small part to lovely Belle And Sebastian but also to the lovely residents who looked after me & the other people visiting from down South. Carey Lander is as wonderful & kind as she is gorgeous.
