Re: Back to the Barbican for another L&G reboot!
Got two tickets for the Monday night. £60 each seemed like a bargain after what RAH were charging for decent seats at Kraftwerk (which like may others I failed to purchase). Saw Krafwerk in Amsterdam last year and Oslo this year. Both gigs were brilliant. Am slightly put off going to their UK gigs a...

Came across this little gem on Soundcloud. English band from early 90's. I think it's a great version. Anyone heard better?

Re: Royal Albert Hall, October 11th, 2011.
It's good but the last Spectrum gig I saw was better.
Take Me To The Other Side highlighted that there is no 'edge' to the stuff that J is putting out in the 21st Century.
And I did laugh when somebody in the crowd shouted "Wonderwall!" in between songs.
