[kj] The Great Belly...

[adrianwason at btinternet.com]

I'm not qualified to reply to that
only seen them 91 onwards and was expressing the widely held view that they were easily the best live band in the world in 1991
and probably from 1989 to that period
 
would've have loved to have seen a btats gig with sungoes down darkness before dawn
 
and a nightime era gig
 
leave it to the old cocks to comment on 1981-1991

I agree that the Joke in 91 were fantastic live... but better than earlier incarnations??

disagree totally 
anyone who saw killing joke early in 1991 realised at the time that they were probably seeing the best live act ever to grace the stage 
  
the songwriting has been better on 2012  IMO than on any other recording since extremities is that down to a combination of the 4 original members gelling after a few years?probably

You summed it up, beautifully, about Big Paul.  There are no substitutes, period.

BPF didn't play the festivals in 2010-11 either. I assume he's able to manage his NYC schedule around a full tour but not these one-off weekend gigs.
 
I said it before and I'll say it again: BPF is the missing piece and the video of Jason Bowld just confims it. Bowld's a dependable timekeeper, i'm sure, but also a basher with little finesse. I've seen KJ with 5 different drummers now and the closest anyone's come to BPF is Ben Calvert and even he was wide of the mark. My GF accompanied me to the Chicago shows in 2010 and she couldn't give a rip about KJ but she left impressed, commenting "the drummer was incredible."
 
Indeed.

Hey Alex, 
  
No doubt you caught up, but just in case, Jason Bowld, is the drummer. 
What I have not heard yet is why, had Big Paul, a sick note? 
I guess it could be any reason and none of my business, but after the Youth blog, I think it was, things did not sound happy in camp KJ. 
Or I guess he could have had other commitments, just curious though.
