[kj] Warm up show at the Fleece?? Now Ultravox

[Paul Wady]

I have to level with you all.  Although I have based all my (attempts at) music on his Metamatic album, John never did get back to it's glory, or that of The Garden the subsequent album.  Got into Ultravox only the past few years.  Brilliant.  Foxx is actually a great writer and visual artist.  He gave an hours Q and A in the ICA 3 years ago, and showed himself to be very erudite n' well read.  But the music he's been making...aah.  Not what it was sadly.  A very cool man to meet.  Very modest.  2 grown boys now.  Tiny Colour Movies are worth seeing live.

Gary (I crash planes, on a weekly basis) Numan is playing here soon. I shall be going. Not that I ever got into anyting post Tubeway Army, and the guys politics are dodgy to say the least. I am sure he will play a few of my faves..
I saw the Back to the Phuture do advertised in Fact Magazine, and was gutted not to be able to go..

Speaking of the God–like genius that is Mr Leigh, see below.

 
Firstly, though, Urine might have prompted wearing stupid clothing, but there is at least one track on each post-Foxx album that is sublime; generally the ones where Currie was let off the leash. Rage In Eden is an almost flawless album, if you remove the singles.
 
Also, “Systems Of Romance” is clearly the best Ultrafoxx album (and, coincidentally, my favourite album of all time). 
 
But to business (£147.50? WTF! That should at least involve some sort of hand relief):
