what Leeds City Varieties like as a venue?

Only I think I'm gonna avoid the Wolves gig as it will definitely be full of pissed-up whistlers and singalongers. That would just spoil the memory of the St Mary's Church gig.

Starfish

$100 isn't that bad an obsession. I mean what does that equal these days? About Â£3.25?

Starfish

Are you talking original compositions or a collection of tracks from the movie?

Ennio Morricone's spaghetti western soundtracks are awesome.

And I'd go for Barbarella and The Trip.

and O Brother Where Art Thou

And David Carpenter's original Assault On Precinct 13 score was fantastic

Starfish

I remember watching that scene as they were fighting and thinking "Oh God, please don't crush him against that vinyl edition of Perfect Prescription...."

.. watching through my fingers as my hands covered my face

I doubt very much it'll be acoustic. Imagine a packed Carling Academy with the bars flowing (as much as the dullards behind the bar can allow) and crammed with Massive Attack fans. The reverential hush of the crowd required for the Acoustic Mainlines has no chance... I expect Spiritualized to come o...

bugger!

I'm one day too late.

I saw these in Birmingham in the early 90s supporting either Spiritualized or Spectrum (or possibly someone else...) I got one 7-inch single by them, then I never heard anything else.

Starfish

right now.... Ennio Morricone's "Dollars" soundtracks

(they should play it in the England dressing room before the next Test Match)

I didn't get to any of the 2nd half of the tour, but everywhere you read you find someone who found the whole experience quite emotional. Just a note on the noisy crowd debate.

As is said, it's a publicity stunt.

When Rod Hull died, Half Man Half Biscuit had to change the words to "Rod Hull Is Alive - Why?" when they played it live.

They replaced his name with Ross Kemp.

I think, with bad language so prevalant these days, so many good old swear words have lost their power.
So it's good that there's still one word out there that can create an impact. In fact, in some trendy publications, it's about the only word left that still merits an asterisk.
