Excellent taste den as ever. I take it you weren’t the guy near the stage who peaked too soon, put Jesca Hoop off her stride and and had to be lead away pinging off everyone as if in a pin-ball machine before elbow even made it onstage?

Anyway, yes they were bloody brilliant as always, have been a fan of theirs for years. I’ve got Boo Hewerdine (Hull) and Turin Brakes (Lincoln) coming up in November.

Saw them a few years ago in Manchester. I agree they are excellent.

My favourite Elbow song - Not the obvious choice.

Looking forward to seeing Gerry Cinnamon later this year. It’s been rolled over for about 20 months now <laugh>

Ha
No that’s wasn’t me
She had some voice didn’t she!
Must admit I’ve never heard Boo H…I don’t think, but Turin Brakes will be good no doubt.

You probably have but never realised - he was the singer in The Bible in the 80s. Writes and performs with lots of other artists now - I came across him when he was singing with Chris Difford [Squeeze] a while back, possibly last century. Usually a good evening of man and guitar and anecdotes. Plus it's a new venue in Hull and I've not been yet.

Not one that you'd have heard of. I haven't played for 20 years but lockdown created a new opportunity that I couldn't really turn down. I can't say who we'll be supporting until it's a done deal but if goes through, I'll let you know. First practice tomorrow, I might be laughed out of the studio yet!
