Hi Cybot
They are a moody bunch, not much interaction with the audience.Verlaine hates people spending time videoing on their phones. But the music was great and super guitar playing. It all felt very fresh and innovative. They dont concede much to the audience and still push the boat out.
The line up was Verlaine, Jimmy Rip (guitar), Billy Ficca (drums), Fred Smith (Bass). I think Richard lloyd left a few years back.
Of course a great version of Marquee Moon. They are a band that the more you listen to them the better they get, a slow burn.
Make sure you catch them the next time. Conor

Thanks for that Conor. Will definitely catch them next time they visit. By the way have you got the Live at the Waldorf album? Would you recommend it? It came out on double vinyl (finally!) on the previous Record Store Day. Not sure......ConorW wrote:Hi Cybot
