Anyone planning to see Wayne on his solo tour later this year?

Refreshingly honest of him to admit that the only reason he's doing it is to pay for his house extension. Hmm, wonder if he's chosen a kitchen supplier yet ...

York.

That sounded SO hillbilly!

IZ.

I'm doing Leeds,Nottingham and Bilston.The Leeds venue in particular looks interesting.

We are going to Winchester.... should be good

Snap.

The new Mish single features the novelty (any port in a storm) of having each member of the band contributing a lead vocal to one of the tracks. Which means that we get to hear Craig "sing" lesson one song. There's a teaser on Slicing Up Eyeballs if anyone's interested.

Just got fliered for it on the way out of Chams. Might do York if any of my uni friends are still knocking about here.

I recall a time when you would have been stoned for starting such a thread. Must be the UKIP effect...

I might go to the Newcastle gig..anyone from here going?

For anyone who fancies it he's offering a free download of one of his new tracks.
But only until 9am tomorrow morning.
& it ain't bad as it goes

I'll wait until 9.05am

I'm not going to Nottingham.

Unallocated Seating..?

thought about d/ling it but it wasnt immediately apparent which link to click on, then it was all "sign up for" then i read "legendary singer-songwriter" and almost wet myself .....so i didn't bother.

I do like, you know, them but isn't his solo stuff just him frigging about on guitar or piano? Isnt that just busking by any other name?

Netherlands - Heerlen

Now doing Leeds as well. Glutton for punishment

in all fairness i supppose you could level (no pun intended) the same accusation at Justin Sullivan's solo gigs...but Slade's a much stronger vocalist and performer in general, not to mention the quality of song-writing being in a different league. sometimes wayne looked and sounded exposed even with a full band behind him. (in my humble opinion).

I haven't seen either frontperson live on their lonesome so the best I can do is compare Bare, which I found a deathly dull and simply unimaginative collection of cover versions, with Navigating By The Stars which I found pretty pleasant, and not massively different to the more quiet stuff NMA had done over the years.

You missed something, as you didn't proceed ... ... It's always worthwhile to give that guy another try ...

This time he's eventually hit the nail ... Marian intro and ... getting better with age ... ok ...

That's just Hussey's seat

His solo tours are pretty much like Bare.

Nice hometown interview here : http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/Wayne-Huss ... story.html fancy Wayne playing a Bierkeller. I would have thought a Yates' Wine Lodge would have been more appropriate.

The original goth frontman??

Surely Eldritch or Murphy as they came first.
