    I was across the road then @thai malaysia addick



    A greatest hits run through and a great show. Dave Rodigan was on good form and The Hot 8 Brass Band (new one for me) were really good. Kid Kapici a bit hit & miss. 

    If I’d been paying attention, I’d have stayed down there for today (Maccabees, Editors, Miles Kane, Ash, Badly Drawn Boy, Anna Calvi). 

    An absolute ballache getting out afterwards though.

    I thought today's lineup looked good. I particularly like Editors and Anna Calvi. I didn't realise it was on. Fortunately, the Madness show finished by 10, so I was able to get away from the Concorde2 gig with relative ease.

    Madness finished at 10.30. 90 minute set which was 30 odd minutes shorter than the Christmas gigs. I wonder whether that was something to do with Chrissy Foreman’s health. He did the whole set last night and spoke a bit, but you can see it’s drained him. 
  • Shout out to the fellow Addicks at Latitude last weekend. Bigger shout-out to Palarse supporting comedian Chloe Petts who told me I was committing a hate crime wearing a Charlton shirt.

    The Flaming Lips was the standout band of the weekend, probably followed by Wet Leg and Jalen Ngonda. Latitude is always about the comedy for me though - got chatting to up and coming comic Lucas Jones-Ho who lives in Charlton and has a season ticket. Watch out for him...

    Australian octet Ukulele Death Squad at Brixton Hootananny last night.  Slightly less mad than a box of frogs but not lacking in fun and good music.  The guy in the see-through nightie, he's the one with the beard, his sister was similarly attired but less hirsute, wasn't a pretty sight but he sure could sing.

    Will be about for the Norwich game on October 24th.
    Difficult choice between Transvision Vamp on 22nd or Swervedriver on 23rd.
    We've seen Swervedriver before albeit back in '93 so opted for Transvision Vamp at Shepherds Bush Empire.
