Another visit to the Luminaire to see The Clientele…and another excellent Clientele show, despite Alasdair’s quips about being strangely nervous they seemed very relaxed. Nice set – some old, some less old, nothing new (“we’ll play some new songs next time because we have some rehearsed…but they‘re sound shit”) the wig out during Lamplight is getting to be a set highlight.
Support from The Left Outsides (again) – I enjoyed them more than last time – and The See See who were also very good.
Love that photo. I thought Alasdair said (of the new songs) that “they sound shit” rather than “they’re shit” – the subtle difference being that the new songs may sound better after more rehearsal; they’re not inherently shit. A very minor point, I grant you, but what are we here for, after all?
Yes that makes sense…I’m sure “they’re shit” is taking Alasdair’s self-deprecation a little too far!
