Re: Fiddlers Friday Mosh

[Nick White <nick.white@ya...co.uk>]

It was me wot nabbed Max's and Rita's set lists, and gave one to Abi.

The set list was:

Raise the roof
25 kinds of love (check out the theremin solo!)
Treeful of starlings
Bury your love like treasure
Sulphur
Tied to you
Daughter movie
Lover and confidante
Angela Carter
Jacket hangs
Police (38 Divinity)
Play on empty singer
Warhol's 15
Action painting
Pony boy
--------------
Yr own world
Breaking in my heart

So I have to dispute the nothing from Life Model or Beatsongs claim  
from the other NW.  But credit to him for starting the dancing off in  
Phil the absent's, er, absence.
And well done Chris - we didn't know you were a bassist.  Particularly  
good work on Police.
I'm listening to the Cheltenham live CD now - it's an excellent  
quality recording and the Aeroplanes sound great.  I can remember  
moshing to Colour Me several times in that era.  It's well worth ten  
pounds of your Xmas shopping budget.   No "Breaking" though!

Yes - it was a good night.  The sounds wasn't as good a balance as in  
previous years, which may have added to the "hard" sound that Nick  
mentioned.
Dave Chapman was on good form, and Ruth Cochrane appeared during about  
3 songs to play theremin.  Our boy Chris filled in well on bass.   
Where was Joe Allen though?  He was playing in Rita's backing band  
(with John Langley and Gerard Starkey) at the Junction a couple of  
months back.
Police (38 Divinity) was a bit of a highlight for me, nicely atonal.   
I can't understand why they insist on persisting with Treeful of  
Starlings.  Ok, it may be that the park it was written about is just  
over the back, but its a weak song at the best of times and doesn't  
come over well live either.  Nice to hear Raise the Roof, but the  
backing vocals were too low in the mix (not as bad as on the album  
though!) - if it had been later in the set it might have sounded better.
Wasn't Pony Boy the last song in the main set and Yr Own World the  
first encore?  Or was my Bristol Beer Factory endorsed confusion worse  
than your Stella haze?  Abi nabbed the set list, so hopefully we'll  
find out.
I thought Rita's song absolutely rocked.  Gerard Starkey got a song in  
too.  Get Rodney back and Gerard L will be able to take half the night  
off.

That was a good, traditional, Aeros Xmas bash. No Angelo, no Rodney,  
and there didn't seem to be as many people there as usual, but those  
who were there did have a good time! It was quite a "hard" gig, not  
much subtlety but mucho noise and power! Lots of old stuff and some  
new, nothing from Life Model or Rough Music though. Or Beatsongs.  
Probably because no Angelo. But Wojtek was there, looking fit as usual!
There was NO Death Zone / Moshpit, and only abouy 3 or 4 people danced  
- me, PV1, Alan, Ann Sheldon and NW1.
It was Lover & Confidante that set me off - I can't resist that riff!

Set list, as far as I can remember throuth the Stella haze:

Raise The Roof High
Tree Full of Starlings
25 Kinds of Love
Bury Your Love Like Treasure
A New Song
Lover and Confidante
Jacket Hangs
Police (38 Divinity)
Action Painting
Warhol's 15

Probably loads more

Encore 1: Pony Boy

Encore 2: Owls/Who Built This Station in the Midwest/Journal of an  
Airman medley. Only kidding! 'Twas Breaking in my Heart, as 'twill  
ever be.
