[kj] [OT] Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

[Steve Hackett]

I went on Monday too - much better than the Orpheus tour IMO and that was a 
corker - he fucked up Stagger Lee too went straight from The Bucket of Blood 
to 50 good pussies before saying "Fuck me that aint right" and going back 
about 5 verses.

If I'm honest you were lucky to miss Barry Adamson, too much Richard Cheese 
for my liking
