Take one acoustic guitar strummed plainly but beautifully. Add one slide guitar doing a plaintive accompaniment. Add one vocal, simple but heartfelt. Put them together and garnish with minimalist bass, organ, a tiny bit of percussion and Nicky's piano tiptoeing in to add the water splashing on the stone as the song fades out. Like all the best dishes, plain and simple ingredients, combined wi

I honestly can't remember whether I have already contributed here, but yes, I'd love them to have a go at a new album. If I haven't already said this, it's because I think our voices on this thread are being drowned out by all the manic cheerleading from JumpinJackOLantern. A campaigning thread isn't very impressive if 50% of the posts are by the same person - it's actually making the rest of

PS: remember that whatever you have with you, you will have to spend a lot of time lugging it around the festival - so lightweight is important. My essential is one of those little waterproofs-in-a-bag which doubles as windproofing in the evening and something to sit or lie on damp ground on.

Spent a nice sunny hour watching her set at the Isle of Wight yesterday; I'm not that taken with her own songs, but there's no question that she's an impressive artist with a great voice - did an amazing cover of Etta James' I'd Rather Go Blind. I agree, pauly - she'd be a very good guest - maybe on one of the gospelly numbers like Shine a Light? Mentally, I can hear her singing I Got The Blues

Make sure you come equipped for rain, but also make sure you have some extra warm layers for the evening. The Isle of Wight has been its usual sunny self and I am several shades browner than I was last week, but Saturday there was a brisk chilly breeze which didn't matter all day, but after 6p.m., waiting for the Killers (brilliant by the way) it was bloody freezing even with every layer on that

Had a great time hearing her do a short but excellent set for the IOW Festival yesterday afternoon - she followed Laura Mvula and said something along the lines of: I'm a great fan of Laura's, and now I'm proud to be here representing the other generation... She and the band had to contend with the wind blustering and booming in the mikes, and a crowd where many people probably didn't know her

Had a nice surprise today at the Isle of Wight when the band Fun suddenly broke into a rather good cover of YCAGWYW (all the better for being totally unexpected - hey, I know that intro...) that had the whole Big Top singing along. But if 'ta-dee' gets you annoyed, you do not want to hear the way their lead singer sings "reception" like it has about seven "s's"in it. I'm o

Two things irritate me - actually, one irritates me - people who quote a HUGE post full of pictures and videos just in order to add a or "agree 100%" at the end of it - and one puzzles me - why do people sometimes quote a previous post or string of posts without apparently adding anything of their own?

QuotePalace Revolution 2000 Sad to hear about his passing. Was wondering what had become of Babi Floyd. But the one thing these clips have done is reminded me of the wonderful band that Keith put together in the 90's. IMO - BY FAR - the best thing he has done in the last 20 years is the Winos, and those two albums, tours. The personalities, the band-ness of it all. Please don't drag out the

GHS is a summer album for me - took my newly-bought CD on holiday to Cornwall and played it non-stop on the car stereo for a week, so it brings images of sand and waves and surfers.

Thanks, Max - here's Doom & Gloom: I'm off to the Isle of Wight this weekend so I don't think I'll be available to do another one of these until Philadelphia, and maradona is doing his exams, so if anyone else wants to have a go at Boston you'll be very welcome.

They're enjoying that - 3 guitars busily at work on Satisfaction. Mick J looks like the lady of the house wondering where it's ever going to stop. Usual competition between Keith and Charlie to see whether the last musical noise on stage will be Charlie's cymbal or a Keith chord ringing away into silence.
