Lovely write up of a concert Brett Anderson of Suede did with an orchestra of disabled musicians, called Paraorchestra. They covered songs about death by Echo and the Bunnymen, David Bowie, Depeche Mode and others. I just received the release in the post but haven't had a chance to listen, and based on this review I'm really, really looking forward to it.
I'd heard about this and would like to have attended. Paraorchestra and Charles Hazelwood have done some excellent, interesting work.
Maybe because no-one else hears it? I definitely don't. Where is it in the song?
I can only think it's very vaguely echoed in the "take me over..." bridge into the middle. Very vaguely.
Collins: Some of our more idiosyncratic lyrics are my favourites. I love the mention of "breadbin" in All In a Mouse's Night.
Beat me to it. Mne would've been "I always excitedly looked forward to a new set of lyrics from Tony."
PG: "Before I talk about the new album, and the whole extra album already in the can for release in 6 months time, I want to spend a couple of hours going over exactly what I was getting at on The Lamb".
Rutherford: "I'm always told I explain things slowly and very clearly"
Hackett: "Look, just pipe down about Lennon. I want to focus on taking my adventurous new groundbreaking album out on tour"
Hackett: "It's a nice thought but frankly I'd be amazed if John Lennon had even heard of Genesis"
All/anyone: "Tony immediately backed down and accepted everyone's point of view"
I'll send the neighbours whose fire alarm has been beeping for hours.
Thank you
Will someone please deal with that stupid car alarm.
Wow. I love how nonchalant you are about it.
Thanks. I didn't feel very nonchalant but on the rare occasions I approach a public figure I'm conscious to not be a gushing fan and to be as brief as possible to not bother them too much. But it was a big moment for me. And for him too.
(That last bit was a joke).
I'm at the London Barbican for the premiere of this. Eno walked past me on his way in. I was tempted to say hello, but decided not to and he looked busy being greeted by a member of staff.
Just now however, I met and briefly chatted with Peter Gabriel, sat on his own on a bench in the cafe area. I felt I couldn't not say hello, and told him how much I enjoyed the shows last year and the album. He thanked me and said how pleased he was with them. We briefly talked about the great company he'd assembled for the tour, then I left him to his snack and drink. I then saw someone having a selfie with him. Overall though he didn't seem to be too bothered by other fans.
I think the DER Lamb had Broadway Melody coded as being just the tranquil bridge section before Cuckoo didn't it? Making it about 40 seconds long, with all BMO74's words attributed to Fly.
On my copy of the Definitive Edition remaster of THREE SIDES LIVE, the live tracks from the original UK side 4 have footnotes that were incorrectly carried over from the original US version with 5 studio tracks
Speaking of which, was the incorrect 1980 attribution for Salmacis live later corrected?
UK hotels. Please reinstate rooms with openable windows instead of being hermetically sealed with air-handling systems, making it uncomfortable and causing the room to veer between stuffy and cold and leading to dry itchy eyes and sniffleyness.
Thank you.
I like Inside Out, Long Long Way To Go, Take Me Home, Doesn't Anybody Stay Together Anymore, and We Say Hello Goodbye especially
Yes you've listed all the good ones
Given that both Liverpool & Arsenal lost last night, I think that might be it. Again.
I bet your jaw hit the floor over that Palace result. As did mine over Villa's win. Bloody gooners, losing in order to rub our noses in it.
One of his best, slightly marred by the advert-style sax solo which has an unfortunate 80s dating effect. Apart from that it could be 21st century and is a fine example of the darker, angrier feel he brought to some of his work. It was an aspect I liked and wished he did more of.
Restaurants. Please don't serve food ON a napkin on the plate, such as fish in sauce accompanied by salad, as it creates a soggy wad of paper that has to be extracted from under the food and is completely pointless and utterly stupid.
Thank you.
Railway stations. Please remove all those pianos so that while waiting in the station, which might already not be a great experience, we don't have to listen to people fumbling around on the keyboard in a setting where the acoustics make their selfish ineptitude even more annoying.
Thank you.
Coffee shops. When serving sit-in customers please return to using ceramic cups WITH HANDLES for blisteringly hot drinks.
Thank you.
You certainly didn't. Mr FIC/NUFC enjoyed watching it last night....
I meant our next fixture.... with Arsenal
It's because as a Liverpool fan I need it to happen. One ridiculously unimaginable tip can't hurt. I can't win the contest anyway. But Villa have impressed this season.
Fair enough. As a Tottenham fan, given our increasingly woeful performances it's unlikely we'll be able to help you on that front in our next fixture.
