Now im off my high i can review.
Wow f@cking wow. What a gig, what a band, what a venue
Day started off with a few beers around Camden including in Belgo Noord(love that place) and Dingwalls in the scorching heat. Easy 30 degrees. Good chilled oot afternoon
Headed to the Roundhouse at doors excited like a kid a christmas. Got my tour sark and then entered the hall. Some place. Alot of history too. Was impressed by the ease of getting pints. Always a must in music venues. (ABC is good for this) the half an hour i had to wait for the band felt like 2 hours. when Mr Claypool and co entered at 8 i fell into a trance. These guys have been top of my band hit list for years and years and i finally got to see their wizardary. Les Claypool is the best bassist in the world. Argue all you want but he is no doubt about it. A genius. This was "an evening with" affair made up of two sets and lasted 2 1/2 hours. But it easnt enough
"Here come the B@stards" "Wynonas Big Brown Beaver" "The Heckler" "John of the Rocks" "Southbound Pachyderm" "Jerry Was A Racecar Driver" "Lee van Cleef" all in the but dissapointingly no "Tommy the Cat", "Pudding Time" "John the Fisherman" or "Shake Hands With Beef" but canna complain 21 tunes and it was a joy to watch. F@cking brilliant
Hope i get a another gig in the Roundhouse. I like it.
Also have to mention, i flew to luton from Inverness and stayed in an appartment on Finchley road. 80 quid all in. Luton to West Hampstead was only 25 mins on the train.
Cheaper and easier than going to Glasgow
Only Van Halen left to tick off now
