This has jumped straight to the top of my to see list

Not sure it would be top of my list but intrigued by VU with Geordie - presumably featuring future AC/DC vocalist Brian Johnson

Early booking is a good perk especially on things like Meltdown (too late for this year tough).

They were fabulous (for all ages)

Very well put. I liked the joke about playing their oldest song and newest back to back to show their incredible artistic development. They always sound fresh

Went to see Wilco last night. Nothing unusual about that (I'm a middle aged man). But it was with a friend whose daughter had requested tickets to celebrate the end of her A-levels.

I second that Bass Culture rec. Possibly my favourite music book. Saw Lloyd interviewing Dennis Bovell a few years back and he was kind enough to sign my copy.

That's a shame but the train is an excellent tribute to Wilko

Is The Railway back open? I'd heard it had closed down (I don't get back to Essex very often)
comment in response to post
Listened to that this morning (back to back with The Dooble Brothers, hey variety is the spice of life)

They have a facebook page and their next session is a Blur vs Oasis afternoon on 22 June. Listings a bit quiet after that but I sense they're cooking up the next batch

A really good way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Coming up to their 100th edition too.

They are brilliant toilets. Have you checked out the Vinyl Sessions at CAC?

It's like "I won't ask my friend Emma who knows something about it, I'll go first to a random 4 year old child who will probably include something about rabbits in their answer"

Bet they won't pull the curfew plug on him there like they did at Hyde Park a few years ago. Sounds like a brilliant night

This is one of the best picks on a very strong Jukebox

Fantastic number. Have you ever heard Michel Petrucciani's version?

And my TOKEN 2 reducing grown bikers to tears, Richard Thompson's epic 1952 Vincent Black Lightning

A late hello to you Michael and Kitty - lots of selections already out there but I haven't yet seen my TOKEN 1 - Back of a Car by Big Star

Glad I checked, this was going to be mine though in the Neko Case version. Just a great song
