Thanks for the Set List, Wessel.

Bright Star Catalogue was on my mind the whole drive back to London, and was amongst the first to be played on getting home. Fine odyssey you had with your son; The Norwegian Supporters Club also made it, and they wouldn't do it for any other band ogsa ! Indeed, the son of one of the absentees, who is studying in Bristol, contacted to take our one spare ticket. Bra !
As for using this List, it does exactly what it says on the tin.

Some random comments.

Flew in from the Netherlands just to see the Blue Aeroplanes. Accompanied by my 20 year old son (bribed with the promise of a prior two day stay in London). As I did last year. Wouldn't do this for any other band. Had a very pleasant meet with Rodney and some of the other band members afterwards, and the pleasure of handing over some enlargements of ( still analogue) pictures I took of them during a 1991 concert at the Paradiso in Amsterdam.

For those of you who are interested, here is the complete set list of the 2019 Christmas gig:

Hips like cigs; Love come round; Who built this station in the mid-west; Dead tree!; Someone; Jacket hangs; Bright star catalogue; Elvis festival; Colour me; Adoration; Poetland; …and stones; Yr own world; Fun; Your ages; and Breaking.

I mistakenly thought Your ages was a new song, only to discover it was on Swagger. Well, it was new to me!

Feel the use of the mailing list should be revived. Somehow it is more personal and communicative.

Best wishes,

Wessel Huisman

Really enjoyed the gig on Sunday even though I couldn't sell my spare ticket!

I watched the end of the heavy metal instrumental band and I looked round and Wojciech was stood behind me. He seemed to be enjoying it (but not dancing).

Amazing gig although I was surprised they didn't open with Broken and Mended especially as I was wearing my Broken and Mended T-Shirt!

Looking forward to the new album especially if their is a launch gig or tour.

Met both Gerard and Wojciech (again) at the end on my way back from getting my coat from the cloakroom.

Fantastic!

Cheers Matthew

Yes, the saxist was introduced as Dmochowski....

He added beef to the guitar wall on a few numbers, and I could have taken it boosted in the mix a little, but purely subjective.

Reminds me, though, that way back in the mist I read something by someone on the inside, that it was a brother or relative of Wojtek that first came up with the name ' The Blue Aeroplanes', and searching credits find one Jedrej Dmochowski doing vocals on 'Tolerance' LP.
That's a fine line.....

The set list called that one ‘Hips like cigs’ it ended with Gerard saying as the music finished “next time around the revolution will not be televised, it will be streamed live and it won’t work properly’
Bec’s solo track was - ‘Adoration ‘

Mike’s was (I think)-‘Someone’
There may have been another new one in there somewhere



Final fact - the sax player shared the same surname as Wojtek

Would've loved to have been there but sadly it wasn't possible. Hoping to get back home to see my parents early next year and you never know, it might possibly coincide with a new album release party. Well one can dream, right?
Obviously depends on the extent of Gerard's tweaking frenzy.

We're all curious about the opener that Gordon mentioned - any kind of recording somewhere that those less fortunate can have a wee hearing of?



Keep those ailerons trim

What was especially good was grabbing ten minutes with Rodney after the gig as he was tidying his kit away. I first saw them at Liverpool Royal Court on that R.E.M. tour in ‘89 I’d completely forgotten that it was not long after Hillsborough and Stipe , who was unaware of the implications, made a point of stopping a crush at the front of the stage. Rodney said there was an earie silence as the crowd pulled itself back into shape before the band started up again. BA were inspiring that night and I rushed out to get Swagger as soon as I could. Meeting Rodney and Gerard 30 years later after a lifetime in between was just great. Gerard said that the new LP is complete but he’s restless and wants to tweak a few things now some of the tracks have been played live.

Some astute observations from Gordon, but then I would expect no less.



The conversation has certainly become more sporadic over the years, but it's always nice to have the opportunity to keep in touch when the mood takes. Hopefully a new lp next year might spark a bit more interaction?



In the meantime, there was a terrific turnout on Sunday - great to see everyone again and apologies to anyone I may I have missed. A terrific set too. Nice to hear Colour Me again - always a favourite of mine.

Ah...! There is life in the old dog yet !

Conversations on the drive out from London yesterday to the effect that this, Steve Thomas's 'Discussion List', seems to have fallen victim to many forces too many to guess at, but facebook, whatsapp, snapchat, depravity, inactivity, boredom, age or maturity, alcohol, elections, Christmas, choosing George Best's greatest goal or choosing the next timber finish to yet another £10,000 kitchen makeover must surely be amongst them, perhaps. We reflected that but for this List, we would not have been driving out to Bristol again yesterday anyway, because we would not have known each other, the List having posted Nev's invitation to the Buttermarket gig in Shrewsbury 2004, at which we fortuitously met.

So thank you Steve. Don't need to thank the band for last night, it was an excellent set of old and very new, and they appeared to enjoy it every much as a packed house did, but posting to this List has become a one way conversation in recent years, and those types of conversation are tres boring, n'est ce pas ? Very fine to see former poster's to this List, though; Blueglass Vallis, mosh-pit Hendry, Austen, Julian, like a family affair without sex. At least one person there had reason to wonder whether he'd ever make it to another, but that's been ticked, so we buzzed back to Beckenham today.

If anyone is still alive out there, give me a take on the new song they opened with, please; great catch at the end,

'The future..........
Streamed
But it won't work properly.......'

I should not prefer people that I agree with, but I do.....

profound and most kindest regards to all,

Gordon

Hello



I have one spare ticket also. I usually go with a friend but he has just cancelled because he is poorly.



So if anyone wants to go they can have the other ticket for face value - I think it is ~ £20 incl booking.



Let me know - email is matthewsemple@ho...com <mailto:matthewsemple@ho...com> or text on 07958 499880



Aiming to get there between 8 and 8.30 to see the 'Planes (who are on at 9.15 pm)



Thanks Matthew
