By crikey there was some breadth and depth tonight, a joy to behold. Having enjoyed seeing the Specials on their last, last tour I was quite content to not go tonight – I’m sure it will have been primo for folks who never got to see ’em first, or second, time around but after the pleasant surprise at the Logan Concrete I saw no need to push my luck. Glad I was pushing them tunes though – with the new Busy Signal album, the excellent Human Teenager joint and so many more exceptional extravagances (including a whole bunch reluctantly mothballed ’till next week) the barometer was reading ‘too much pressure’… oh I’ll stop myself…..
This Thursday it’s all about Scalper’s release party for Butcher Bakers at Whammy (see flyer in post below). I’ll be gently percolating proceedings and warming up from 9.30 – 11, then it will be Tha Feelstyle, Maitreya and Scalper in fairly short order from 11 on, all done by 1, a tenner on the gate (a steal is what that is) and …see you there.
