Hanbury, Brighton, March 27th

Opening night, one day later than planned.  Gerard?s
slinking around, taking in the support, eyeing the punters
from the safety of those shades.  The Hanbury?s filling up
nicely, but it?s not the biggest ballroom in the world.
It?s not even the biggest in Kemp Town.

They start, low-key.  No Rodney.  No Wojtek.  No Ian.
Still, 3 guitars and the mighty thumping Brother John.
First impressions : skakey.  New songs flatter to deceive.
A heavy Fall/Beefheart grind that muddy any subtlety
present.  Funny, but the news songs sound more dated than
?Spitting Out Miracles?, an unexpected mid-point
highlight.  Thinks perked up.  The dancers arrive.  Gerard
starts smiling.  A riotous ?Applicant?, a supremely
tightly-coiled ?Detective Song?.  A real song instead of
a terrace-anthem encore, not that I?m complaining either
way.  And out into the night.

Sporadic magic it was.  But sporadic magic is better than no
magic at all.

Hope you all enjoy the rest of the fortnight.

Opposite Steve.


Unrelated questions :

1.      What was the last gig not to close with TV?s BIMH ?
2.      Is Gerard copying Wojtek?s dancing, or did Wojtek copy
Gerard ?
3.      What do these guys do for day jobs ?  Not meaning to
sound rude, but
        surely all these years of inactivity couldn?t
support a squad half
        this size.
4.      Who or what is a Pony Boy ?
