No, I missed out on tickets :( . I guess that you are going?? I also missed out on a secret gig of theirs at a place 5 mins away from my house when I was in Australia :( :(

Oh poo that's no good Andy. You can't miss Frank. I can get you some tickets at face if you want to figure out what night you want to go and get back to me.


Have you EVER seen the Pixies or do you just keep being in the wrong place at the wrong time? That's a habit you've got to address?

Jah is right about the distinction between vocalists and singers..hence the title of the thread. As it is, I think both can send a shiver down your spine. With vocalists I guess it's partially down to whatever heartfelt lyrics they are singing, whereas great singers can melt your heart singing the most sugary platitudes.


I don't know if anyone else saw Barry Manilow doing his "masterclass" on The X-Factor a couple of years back. Sure the guy is a legendary showman with a cakeshop coiffure and a face of comical magnetude but you should have seen his face when Leona Lewis sang for him. He did well not to buckle in the knowledge that he'd just met a singer far better than he.

I've got the Romeo & Juliet CD. It has a Gavin Friday track; Angel on it! I agree the Des'ree song is beautiful.

    • Lost morning of 5th November between Archdale Road  and Denmark Hill station via Lordship Lane.
    • Was planning to come on here to ask if anyone might know which celeb/royal came through Lordship Lane yesterday - was on my way up to Spurs, on bus at the roundabout by the EDT when some whistling police cyclists pulled the traffic to the side of the road to allow a biggish range rover to shoot past, on the way up towards Dog Kennel Hill. Could only make out two, maybe middle-aged, men in the front before it passed. Mildly hysterical lady on pavement was laughing/screeching with her friend that they were desperately trying to find out who it was. Had more reason to post after this lunchtime's experience. Had just got to bus stop opposite the M&S by the station when some mini cooper thing bombed through the traffic, swerving across to cut up another car to get up the hill, before two or three police cars followed about 20 seconds behind. Said mini cooper thing then reappeared coming the other way, beeping its horn to get other cars out the way before it bombed up what I think was Elsie Road, with police cars now on both sides of the road by Maxin trying to stop traffic getting in the way/half the speeding car. Bit more than I had bargained for when I set out/want in local area! Stay careful out there folks, this place is getting scarier...
    • The stop outside the chippy was still closed earlier today, although the barriers I saw yesterday have been removed, so no need for the closure.  The stop outside the church across the road is now uncovered and open
    • You all have different and conflicting interests though. It isn't necessarily appropriate for him to communicate with all of you at the same time about the same issues.    You're giving more away with each post as to how these difficulties probably arose.
