Not really bothered about the various iterations of the band, but gave John Dwyer’s solo jazz albums a listen recently and really dug them. Will definitely be revisiting them soon.
A frustrating lack of info on who is supporting and what time they are playing (o2’s stated policy on their website is not to provide stage times. Twats). Riley said on the radio last night that Crack Cloud were supporting but that looks to be only the London show. Anyone seen them on this tour and can help me out with supports/running times?
When I lived in Oxford, the academy would give stage times via a telephone message but only for whatever act had played last week. So I guess their policy hasn’t changed.
Looks like Crack Cloud are supporting in Bristol too. Tempted.
That’s great, thanks for the update . Just waiting for my train to Oxford now. Wasn’t that bothered by Container at the Troxy gig so I’ll just take a leisurely stroll from the station and maybe grab a bonus BrewDog on the way.
kinda pleased they haven’t released much lately because the show i’m going to this week was supposed to happen 2 years ago and i’m glad it won’t be TOO different to how it would have been
probably less Face Stabber than there would have been though
weirdly, the Dublin promoter posted heavily about the original 2020 shows that ended up getting postponed but has been incredibly quiet about the rescheduled 2022 shows. posted loads about 2 Shellac shows recently but not a peep about these. made me almost start to doubt they were happening but they seem to be.
also posted the intended supports well in advance in 2020 but no indication of who’s supporting now. i’ve just seen a random facebook comment saying it’s Crack Cloud both nights but they seem to be doing their own show in Dublin on Thursday. though that’s a late show and just round the corner so it’s possible. hmm.
