on the other hand, dickie t will definitely be doing VBL 1952
funnily enough, i saw pete astor do a cracking version of it a couple of weeks ago at a free festival in north london
introducing it as "a not so very old english folk song"

That Liminanas song is
That Liminanas song is amazing. Hoping to squeeze a bit of them before Aldous Harding. Serpents will be amazing - hopefully she closes on that before coming back to do Love More as an encore! John Cage Bubbkelgum is another I can’t wait to hear from the groop!
Still haven't really
Still haven't really recovered from the Bells split but am massively looking forward to Alex Rex. You are so right about smoke and memory. Ditto James Yorkston's Blues for Dougie and Broken Wave.

more than happy to give 'em a try but looks like they may clash with aldous harding
best live band in the world? thought that was idles . . .
Was listening to the
Was listening to the Limiñanas over dinner last night- definitely won over. Aldous Harding on the other hand is the "everybody else loves them but I just don't get it" act this year, along with Stella Donnelly. Maybe it's an antiantipodean thing.
Have you listened to Julia Jacklin's beautiful album "Crushing" to test that theory??
it's beyond me how anyone can
it's beyond me how anyone can listen to aldous harding's voice and not want to immediately go at the PA with a stick
stella, on the other hand, is funny as fuck - with songs to match
1. Masterpiece .... Big Thief
2. Grace Kelly Blues (or ANYTHING from "Daisies of the Galaxy") .... Eels
3. Seventeen .... Sharon Van Etten
4. Car Song .... Moff and Hubby
5. Imagining my man ... Aldous Harding (the "Ray's stick" version!!!)
