IAN BROWN LAST NIGHT!

Went to see the legend that is Ian Brown last night in cambridge. Fantastic performer with plenty of time for the masses! Even did fools gold in the encore. pukka night! If you've never been to see him, thoroughly recomend it!

Going to see him in Glasgow next week, looking forward to seeing the monkey man 🙂

which reminds me… a mere 25k for Reni's hat here…

Saw him at Leeds Met about 10 years ago. Awesome…

seeing him next wek at manchester, can't wait

Off to see him in Leeds on Friday night…

Should be good 🙂

Mind he'll have to go some to beat MADNESS tonight 🙂

Just back from Sheffield Academy, awesome gig. And 8 minutes of Fool's Gold in the encore…

He's great, until it comes to a tune that the audience can't sing along to, then it's obvious he can't sing for toffee.

SAw him 8 years ago atsoem festival thing. He was obviously out of his tree and frankly SHI*ITE. Really disappointed. Did get to see Public Enemy which was nice.

Saw him sat night in brixton brillant, i've watched alot of his live stuff on youtube and mostly his voice did nt sound the best. But he was on top form on sat night. Support acts were shite.

Some people are easily pleased…

LOL

saw him a couple of years ago at brixton, quite a few roses songs 🙂 was lucky enough to see the roses 3 times.

still gutted they cancelled glastonbury mid90s. 🙁

whats his latest album like?

New album is good quite jumpy !

thanks, mr frosty, jumpy is good!

New album is probably the best yet, one track in particular is very 'rosey'
The surport band at cambridge was Soho Dolls – thought they were actually quite good.
He openly admits that his voice is a bit iffy sometimes, so that sort of makes it ok! He had lots of vocal training after splitting with the roses too. What happened to John Squires? after the Sea Horses?

A complete genius.

never before has so little ability underpinned such a huge career. 😉

I saw him supporting the Manics about 7 years ago in Cardiff – he had to be escorted off the stage part of the way through the set by security. IIRC he was having a problem with some of the crowd.

Can't say that anything else sticks in my memory about the gig. A shame because I like some of his stuff.

John Squire has hung up his guitar to work on his art. Interview from last year.

became an artist,

saw him at cardiff uni about 3 years ago, class gig until someone in the crowd spat at him. brown stopped the song pointed at the offender and started shouting "dirty bastard!" security had to jump in and escort the offender out of the gig, as they did the guy must have had about 50 slaps from the crowd.

his voice is sh*te live, but he has presence and its always good to hear a few roses songs live. the energy at the gig was amazing as everyone was singing along.

had to laugh at his leather adidas tracksuit with gold piping.
