Jarboe gig in London - November

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Jarboe is very extreme yet a bit kinder with it compared to aunty Diamanda. I'd reccomend 'Sacrificial Cake' to anyone.

And she was on top form :D

Lots of powerful songs finished off with a dedication ("This is for Michael") before launching into Swans classic "Mother/Father".

Don't suppose you could elaborate on the performance of one man and his laptop? Was there much moving around / singing / interpolation of real instruments? The whole "hunched over a laptop like a gargoyle" thing is what's been keeping me from risking live music, but if it can be pulled off...

I did read, it just wasn't entirely clear...

Maybe I'm just too naive to believe that someone would have the adaucity to perform an entire set with the single "musician" crouched over a machine doing nowt much else...

Sorry I meant that if you're thinking of doing performances like that in the future try and introduce something for the audience to focus on.

He doesn't need audacity, he's been in several excellent and well-loved bands, he's just trying something different - I'm not defending it, I found it quite dull.

*jumps up and down uncontrollably*

They want to see my photos! They want to see my photos!
LazCorp got this e-mail from one of Jarboe's drummers


Hello, just read this review. Very cool. Thanks for the kind words.

One correction - my last name has an 'i' on the end of it. No biggie, tho.

Hey, being BEHIND the kit, I never got to take any pictures of the full band in action. Do you have any others besides the ones in the article? I'd really enjoy seeing them. They are for personal use, and even if I put them on my web site, I will credit you - just send me what to say.

Thanks so much. Hope to see some more shots! I will share with the other members of the band with your permission.

Regards,

Phil Petrocelli




Bloody hell! ;D ;D ;D
