Robert Plant @ Roundhouse

Submitted by mick on 24 November, 2010 - 23:12

It was great to see Bob - ole Planty - doing his thang, struttin' his stuff, as only he do...
I quite like the bluegarssy thing he does these days, and smart to play a style befitting of a veritable gent of the stage. He even did a few Zep songs in the style, like Gallows Pole...

But I can't help thinking that TV views might have got a better deal - like cricket - you get the subtleties. For straight ahead rock and roll, there's nothing like being there. And I was there! Was where you say? Where else but THE concert of the century - Zep reformed at the O2. Ah, even if they do it again it won't be the same...

Anyway, saw Mr P again on Jools Holland, and again a masterful display of musicianship/songcraft etc - really connected with the band, maturity really showing, as they manage to convey a slight 'in the now' tension, showing up few of the youngsters...

I think this man SHOULD still be playing because he is genuinely contributing to the landscape.

Trannequin - The First Gig

Submitted by Chris Jenkins on 17 November, 2010 - 15:39

I'd heard some sneak previews of the Trannequin tracks and didn't know what to think... and now I have seen them live and I am none-the-wiser. Apart from they were very good, the tunes are very clever and catchy.

I know the guys well, although after Friday's show it's as if I really don't know them at all. Like waking up in an alternate universe, one with Trannequins, which for some reason sounds like it's a word we've been using for years.

A story of love lost and found, the Songs are a mix of samples, great lyrics and vocaloid powering the Trannequin. A great act. Something the world needs.
