I watched the documentary on the the making of Songs from the big chair last night. Oleta Adams was fantastic doing a live version of this. What a fantastic album that was Yes but not as good as the first one which in my humble opinion was a classic. Interesting programme though came away realising just how technically excellent the production was. I lost a little bit of love with Tears for fears when I saw them at the Victoria Hall because they'd just made it seriously big and had the look of two men who didn't want to be there. Last night I had some sympathy with them as there seemed to be issues raised back from that time about them being front of stage which at the time was a necessary evil. So difficult to pick a track from The Hurting but this is a particular favourite.

That's how you do it.
Hank Williams Jr. tearing it up, he could sing the phone book and it'd be spine-chilling

She's got a great voice, sounds a little like Stevie Nicks.

I'd been going out with my (then) girlfriend for about 18 months when we went to see Peter Gabriel at Earls Court in 1987 ... a couple of hours before the gig (ah we were so in love ) Dee asked me to marry her (I said yes) and like a couple of giggling kids (which we were at the time) we bought a cheap engagement ring on Oxford Street, pledged our devotion to each other and headed off to one of the greatest gigs ever. 33 years later, we're still together (I've just turned 54) and we're still going to gigs as much as we've ever done, and blimey, what a gig, all those years ago, it actually was ...

Saw him a few years ago (late 2014) when he did his So Back to Front tour tour with all the original band. It was great and so happy to have seen him at long last.

Refunds have already been issued, so it would appear they've binned off any hope of rescheduling, shame because we had terrific tickets. Luckily we're going to Primavera in Barcelona in June and she's scheduled to play on the Friday night ... so fingers crossed that happens.

That's Father John Misty in the video with her. A tough gig for him.

Luckily managed to snaffle a couple of box tickets for The Who's Teenage Cancer Trust gig at the Albert Hall this morning. The first time I saw them, my Dad took me and it's his 80th birthday the week before the concert, so 40 years on, I'm going to reciprocate the favour! I haven't told him yet, he'll find out on the day of the gig! Quadrophenia (my all time favourite film) is going on shortly ...
