Dan Mangan was quite exceptional at Bush Hall last night. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a gig so much. And of course a little audience participation always goes down a treat.


Playing Sunday at the Camden Crawl if anyone fancies a slice of awesome songwriting, killer guitars, beautiful lyrics and a most excellent horn. Don't know if the mighty Zeus are supporting on Sunday too but they are definitely worth checking out too.

Here I am again. It's Meltdown. Antony Hegarty's Meltdown at the South Bank. To say that Antony has lined up some pretty weired stuff is an understatement (although not a surprise). I've just spent the last 15 minutes listening to Diamanda Galas on You Tube and I'm literally terrified. But that's the joy of Meltdown.


Somehow Antony has managed to coax Elizabeth Fraser out of self-imposed retirement for two nights. That's a bit WOW. This is the lady who turned down Coachella for ?1.5 million because she just wasn't feeling it. Needless to say that tickets are flying out so if you want to be there then I wouldn't hang about. I think public booking is on Friday and Elizabeth will sell out lightening fast. Members' booking opened on Wednesday.


To be clear, I don't think she has any plans to do more gigs, she's likely just doing Meltdown then disappearing again for another 20 years. So go see her. What's to think about?

This takes my breath away

Here's Antony chanelling Beyonce.




Now I'm crying.




And humble.

She's not sold out yet Titch. Go have another look. The website crashed yesterday and all sorts of crazy things happen to the SBC's website when they put Meltdown on sale. But go and have another look now - there are seats. All the front stalls have gone but you can still get side stalls.

Sorry I got my days muddled up - that always happens to me in a bank holiday week.


So, to be clear, members' booking opened yesterday (Tuesday) and public booking opens tomorrow (Thursday). Both Liz Fraser nights are well sold already just to members, but there are tickets still available. So you can go online now and buy a membership and get tickets, or you can wait until public booking tomorrow and buy without paying the extra ?45 for membership.


Who knows what will happen tomorrow ? they might have held good seats back for the public on-sale, they might add another date(s), Ticketmaster or Seetickets might get an allocation. The only guarantee tomorrow is that the remaining tickets for the two dates (6th and 7th August) are going to sell out in a matter of minutes.


If you decide to go online now I think (but I?m not certain) that you can view the seats online once you?ve put a membership package in your shopping basket. The front stalls have gone (but they may have held some back for tomorrow). There are seats in side stalls, rear stalls and terrace available. The side stalls are the best option. You can always phone them ? the box office staff are very helpful.

Brilliant, thanks GG, I have just purchased a couple of tickets.

    • A town square would be nice. Perhaps we could pedestrianise North cross Road and create a square with the junction of Lordship Lane. Can't imagine there would be any objections / controversy.  This is probably true, but the issue is not so much the level of the rent, but the degree to which it is sustainable in the context of the local market. The Landlords locally do seem to have squeezed rents to the point where places can no longer survive in many cases.
    • https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-14774205/Urgent-warning-opioid-deaths-Met-Police-pills-heroin-nightclubs.html?ito=email_share_article-top   I'm sharing this article to help to spread the word about these new deadly synthetic opioids called Nitazenes which are finding their way onto the drug scene.  Two more young lives lost last weekend in young people at a South London club.    Most people I talk to have never heard of Nitazenes which are being used as contaminants in a number of other drugs including sleeping pills like valium and Xanax, oxycodone but have also been found in vapes and sedative antihistamines and cocaine.  So people buying sleeping tablets and other substances have no idea of the risk they are taking.  This is a relatively new trend and the number of deaths is on the increase.  Do discuss it with your teenagers and young adult children and anyone you know tempted to purchase sleeping tablets online.  It really is a much more dangerous and potentially lethal time to buy tablets online or on the street and hopefully knowledge of Nitazenes can help people protect themselves.  This stuff is in London and no doubt, is already in Dulwich so do spread the word.     
    • The link is showing the real link to the East Dulwich Forum that Joe on here set up.  https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1DanoiLd48/?mibextid=wwXIfr East Dulwich Mums is my group and is not a spin off from this group. I have no connection to the other EDF Facebook group and nor do I promote any cleaning services. My group is very well run thank you and your information is incorrect.  No, that is the new Facebook group that the admin on here has set up.  Joe does need to turn the settings on that group to pre approval for all posts as there is a lot of posts on there that isn’t relevant.
