Aye, Cottiers is an ace venue. Dexys kicked off their 2012 try-oot-the-new-album tour there in May 2012*, and I saw Terry Slesser's Paul Kossoff tribute there just 54 weeks ago. Good grub too.

I keep hearing the name Chuck Prophet, but apart from a song that I sometimes have to play when I dep with my mate's country band, I am woefully ignorant of his output**.

*Proper Mannies' Dexys fans followed them to Whitley Bay the night after and Shepherd's Bush O2 the night after that.

**And a heap of other things, like the merits of three at the back, and the need for drummers to play quarter beats on closed un-miked hi-hats with their right stick when hitting the off-beat on the snare with their left. Strange breed.
