Yeah? Only just got into his stuff and I love it, also the Glee Club is an intimate litlle place which should suit him prefectly I reckon.

minimal electronic audio-visual goodness

Ryoji Ikeda, alva noto (Carsten Nicolai), Robert Henke aka Monolake (scroll down to the 2nd thing) in the tate modern turbine hall, doing combined music/visuals stuff.

I'm really excited about this; should be frikkin' good. Saw Ryoji Ikeda do summat at the Barbican last week & it was amazing; tight, tight coordination between sound & visuals, & really extreme pure-electronic sounds. Mighty, mighty bass combined with sine-wave tones, bursts of static, clicks & rumbles. After the first 50-minute piece I felt like my head had been cleaned out with a brillo pad (in the best possible way!).

The other two should be good too; Monolake's doing some collaborative thing; live performance with a guy in berlin, thru' some custom software he's got, & alva noto's videos on his site look pretty nice too, but then I'd expect anything involved with Raster Noton (their record label) to be pretty exacting when it came to visuals.


Other than that, I *was* excited about seeing the Flaming Lips @ the Albert Hall, but am now invited to friend's wedding reception that evening, so can't make it :(

I'm going to see the Levellers on 1st April, Australian Pink Floyd on 5th April and The Datsuns on 21st April.

I go to no gigs for ages then I have three in the space of a month!
 
trying to decide if can afford to go and see Howe Gelb supported by the Handsome Family in Brighton in May. They're both playing in London separately, but I think seeing them on one bill would be great.
 
Zodiac Mindwarp are sup[porting the very mediocre Love/Hate . May be worth turning up for support then buggering off !
 
so my current list is Flamings Lips, Calexico, Broken Family Band, Revd Horton Heat, The Dresden Dolls :D

and judging by the fact that Shellac are playing some European festivals, i think they're on their way too :)

Love/Hate.. Fuck me are they still around?

Is Jizzy Pearl still in the band? I may be keen.
 
I don't know if there are any Miss Black America fans around here, but they're playing in London this month. It'd be nice if there was someone to join me!
