Fab, I'm not sure whereabouts in the world you are, but the tour dates I've seen are for the UK.

It's a really lovely album. I discovered Lucy only during the past year and have since bought her other albums. 'No Words Left' is definitely recommended if you've yet to hear that one. She's touring next year BTW.

Yup, I was working up there at various times between about 1997 and 2013. I've only been up to Edinburgh since then, sadly.

I've never made it to either of those other two. I remember seeing bands at the Carling Academy, Barfly, and The Garage. There were likely one or two other places that I visited only once, though I have no idea if any of these places are still going.

It's a great venue. I saw quite a few bands in there when I was working up that way. I went to several other venues, but that's the one that sticks in my mind the most.

😄😄 I love it there too, it's been a while since I was last there though. I used to love getting into King Tut's.

I was heavily into goth music in the second half of the eighties, and The Mission were a formidable live act back then. They remain one of the bands whom I've seen more than any other.

It really was, Nick. Boo is a complete comedian with a dry sense of humour, and his songs are completely timeless - plus 'Patience Of Angels' and 'Bell, Book, and Candle' both featured in the set too.

Indeed, I've seen him a good many times. I'm delighted to report that he was completely on form this evening - and cracking a fair few jokes as usual too 😁

You've done really well there, Vincent! I think the Enta Fen CD is the one that I'm struggling to track down. I managed to locate a copy of the 'Lost' EP some years back.

Boo Hewerdine, a singer/songwriter originally in a band called The Bible (check out a track called 'Cigarette Girls' by the latter).

Really good. A shortish set at around 40 mins upstairs at the Rough Trade shop, then signing record sleeves.
They mainly played songs from the new album, ending on Endless Deathless.

Very possibly so. They're a really exciting band to watch, lots of layers to their sound.
