M A G A Z I N E Oxford Academy (not so) Secret Warm Up Gig
Posted: 11 Feb 2009, 22:09
Saw Magazine last night playing their first gig together for about 25 years and put simply, they were sensational.
If you've even a passing interest in their music do try and catch them at one of the other UK shows. I'd not seen them live since 81 and am a huge fan so freely admit I'm writing this from a biased perspective.
With Noko on guitar replacing the late John Mcgeogh the sound was sparkling, Devoto on top form (what a fantastic lyricist he is), Doyle & Formula providing ample support to Barry Adamson's bass lines (The light pours out of me!) which have the same feel as that of the 83 - 85 Sisters gigs the 200 or so that were in the venue all saw a remarkable gig.
They play London, Manchester and Glasgow - (not sure if they are sold out) in the next few days - if you're going - you're in for a treat!
