Went to see The Polyphonic Spree tonight and still feel vaguely speechless.
Here's the weblog entry I managed to cobble together for the site.

See you Thursday! Ian


June 17th: Another Monday at the Festival Hall. This time to see the
Polyphonic Spree, a choral symphonic pop band from Dallas Texas, with 24
members all wearing cassocks. The album is a joyous blend of Plush, The
Beach Boys and Mercury Rev, and live they're like Jesus Christ Superstar
crossed with Sgt Pepper. Very odd, very beautiful, extremely spectacular,
inspiring, scary, bewildering, like nothing I've ever seen before really.
I'll play some on Thursday if anyone wants to hear it. I did consider
dedicating the first 35 minutes of the club to the first nine songs on their
album, because you really should experience this music, but I'm not sure if
everyone's sanity could take it. Mine has been stretched quite a bit by
tonight.
