Glasgow last Sunday

Yes it's taken me two days to recover. Loved the Glasgow show - King
Tut's is still a great venue and I thought the sound down the front was
fine, although Gerard's vocals weren't as clear as they could have been.
Julian Poole has more effects pedals than I've ever seen but you can get
away with that if you play guitar as well as he does.
The set list (and some of the banter) was exactly the same as London's,
which Lisa has already circulated. The crowd was enthusiastic, not least
my mates for whom I apologise now as I did then, and the band seemed to
feed off the crowd. Seemed like the band enjoyed the show a lot as a
result. There must have been around 120 people there, I reckon, but it's
a tiny venue.
Even 10,000 Miles grooved along nicely. But I still don't get Cavaliers
pt 9 (apparently aka The Act of Indemnity and Oblivion). I thought
Surreal Thing was a highlight, or Warhol's 15 again. Or the link from
Days of 49 into Jacket Hangs, or Max starting up Breaking in My Heart on
stage on his own. Gerard politely declined my request for a Pony Boy
encore - the band don't know it, apparently. Ah well, everything else was
just fine.
Steve B - I asked Gerard if what he'd said in London about Rodney's new
honesysuckle cottage was true, and he said it was - he seemed very happy
for Rodney's domestic idyll, so it looks like the rumours of a falling out
were indeed pleasingly false. I asked him some other stuff as well but I
need my memory back before I can report them. You can get through a lot
of booze when the band doesn't come onstage until 10pm.........
Finally, Scotland has these new no smoking laws and it's very strange to
come out of a gig not smelling like an ashtray. I think I like it.
