Who would you put your money on now? I assume the reunion is not happning if he's playing pretty big solo gigs Unless you know but can't tell Kinks seemed like a could-happen option - or at least, more than stuff like (say) The Smiths. That's a long way less than 'most likely'. I'd say a solo show rules that possibility out, unless it were to be a true one-of. Could happen i suppose, tho i doubt it. Haven't thought much beyond that, so don't have another guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do know is it worth the fuss and worth Emily sitting on it for 6 months ? nope, i don't know and don't really have any ideas. My presumption is that it's something special rather than just-another-band-on-the-bill cos that's my take of how Emily said it, tho she's not adverse to going over the top with 'fantastic' and the like at other times so perhaps its just that again.

musky Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 A video on FB appears to show... precisely nothing of interest. It does seem to rule out the idea that the Other will have two stages though.https://www.facebook.com/pughmatt/videos/10154608751506464/ It's too big to upload here so you'll have to be on FB to view it unfortunately.

That would be a big change, hope there are Yes. Sometimes they were brilliant, like Underworld. Other times, when you've got jazz in the middle of the day, you can fall into the trick of staring at a screen instead of just walking a bit closer and watching them directly. On the whole, a plus.

I think you're right, but a part of me liked it being kinda old-skool without screens, which seemed to suit the music that was on at WH. It was more about the music than it being in any way flashy or a 'show'. But of course we've had FKA Twigs and Goldfrapp there in recent years (both brilliant) so screens are probably needed there now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
