Sinister: Manchester Sat versus Sun

[Simon Gooch]

Here's my half penny worth:

The Saturday was the worst B&S gig I've seen. Simple as that. Unlike 
the Union Chapel it wasn't magically shambolic. The sound was shite 
and they knew it (balancing trouble, monitors feeding back, boring, 
I'll shut up..) and I guess the consequence of that was their pissing 
about (cf Steve crashing the vocal on Photo jenny with his Xmas harmonica).

The Sunday gig was the best B&S gig I've seen. Hardly a tune missing 
from my (eever expanding) list of favourites. Apart from that 
Scottish session one with Stuart D reading and the near-free form 
jazz flourish at the end which they played on Saturday. A new top 
tune. Oh well. 

The thing about B&S is, well, they may be the best abnd in the world. 
But if they get above your criticism then your love is blind. And if 
your love is blind you'll probably trip up (or something...)

Love from Simon 

P.S. Fuck it's windy down here in London. I'd best go down the pub then...
