Novemeber update

Well I now have Misty's Big Adventure's new LP. Televisions People. It still has the classic MBA sound, yet is somewhat darker than previous LPs. It is available on 12" Vinyl! It IS a concept album but in a good way. We need to make sure that as my mum used to say, and still does, " Television doesn't rule our lives!"

WE saw MBA at the Manchester Acadamy, and had the pleasure of seeing Gareth play a somewhat battered Westone guitar!

The joint headliners Flipron were very good. Live they have even more charm.

Go see either band if you can. You should not be dissapointed!

PLU

If anyone stumbles across this!

So I am currently grooving to: Misty's Big Adventure. Their first 3 albums. Solar Hi-Fi System, The Black Hole and Funny Times. I am waiting for the release of Televisions People.
Misty's are unique, but I am sure people will pigeon hole them. They are a 7/8 pice band which include Sri Erotic Volvo. a dancing loon. If you get a chance go and see them this autumn then do. They are also doing a double header with Flipron who are also unique in a different way.

I am also listening to a great deal of Pink Floyd and early Genesis too, which must have something to do with my mid life crisis!
