There's a few more left than that. Rough Trade were going to buy sixty but culled the amount down to 20. Live, they're supposed to be a bit heavier than the Lips (I must tell you the stroy sometime about when I put them on the same night Portugal beat England on penalties...disaster-gig and back in the day when they were underground before getting Viced.)
 
the Black Lips gig at hte dirty water is tonight, i foudn this nice review from last time they played there:

"A sinister smile formed on the singer's face and he climbed a speaker during one of the songs. He fumbled with his shorts and suddenly his dick was hanging out. It started as a trickle, perhaps because of nerves, but a moment later a full stream of piss was shooting out into the crowd. He aimed his dick upwards, bent his head towards his crotch, slurped a mouthful of his own urine, and spit it out into the audience. Everyone in the place simultaneously lost their minds. People were staggering around, grabbing onto stranger's shoulders and saying, "Can you believe this shit?!" King Khan jumped on stage to drum up some audience appreciation and was met with a big, sloppy, open-mouthed kiss from the singer. Anything in the club that wasn't nailed down was flying at the stage. The bass player got up on his amp and pulled down his pants. He jumped down and stepped up to the mic. "I'd like to thank my dad for putting on this show. He's a cool guy." "

Absolutely none of them anywhere near me :D

Leeds is probably the closest actually

Anyone in Leeds wanna put me up on 26 September? *best winning smile*
 
Spider John Koerner (1960s NYC coffee house folk blues singer) at the Green Note in September

Ramblin' Jack Elliott (1960s NYC coffee house folk blues singer) at the Union Chapel in September

Go see em while they're still alive! Cos they won't be able to play guitar as well once they're dead. I presume.

Unfortunately both dates are Wednesdays, when I've got my mixing and mastering course at City Lit starting.
 
Part Chimp on tour in the Uk in September :D:D

It's 5 years since I saw them last :eek: It was a brilliant gig though, an hour or so of complete headbanging loudness :cool:
 
P.O.S. in Bristol (Thekla) October 2nd
Obits in Bristol (Thekla) October 12th
Mariachi El Bronx (Islington, maybe?) November somethingth.

It's been an fabulous year for gigs, even if the person I thought and hoped I was going to enjoy them with wasn't at any of 'em.
 
yes to the horrors. just booked tickets. hope they play for longer than 20 minutes this time :D although they do have TWO albums worth of material now and are all grown up so it's more likely that they'll play for longer... :hmm:
