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.

    • How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't he just be struck off, or the equivalent?
    • There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
