Anyone seen

them before? How does the music translate live?

any of their music but am loving the picture of them in the drive of somones house, fat bloke, bald bloke et al. Beats the usual skinny, stupid hair and clothes ridiculous posturing style over substance pictures you normally see on here.

Agreed

it's a great song, I'd give the album 8/10.

Diver it takes you about 4 paragraphs to get into actually describing the music, it made my head weep.

Why

the urge to get them higher in the charts?

Good

review. I went on Tuesday and it sounds like both nights were of similar quality though there was no Boy George.

His voice sounded amazing in the venue as did the strings and piano.

What surprised me was his banter with the crowd. I was expecting a big lumbering shy giant but he actually chatted quite a bit and made a few amusing comments that went down well.

9/10

Re: Patrick Wolf releases arrest statement

If it was a PR stunt he should cut all of his knuckles off (and that does include toe knuckles)

Bright Eyes

Agree with vamos there.

Near the end it got tedious and a bit boring and me and my girlfriend decided to make an early exit.

I thought the sound was a bit off and from the middle backwards you couldn't hear the vocals that well and for an artist who's main attraction is his lyrics this didn't bode well for a good performance.

Was really looking forward to Arc of Time but I think the sound was muddled because there were quite a few instruments playing at the same time but rather than compliment each other they just confused the overall effect. I think the comparisons with Arcade Fire in this aspect are way off.

Showcasing the album is good but he could have left some of the fillers and noodling out as I thought that just added to the tedium.

Bloc Party a day later showed that great performances at Somerset House can be done.
