Nick Cave

He obviously did that on purpose cos he doesn't want you near him. ;-)

Where you been hiding anyway?

Not hiding anywhere, I still check in most days. Just not been posting so much. Basically I have a new job which keeps me too busy! Am following the headliners thread with interest though.

[Zoo Music Girl]

Sing it sista

Really looking forward to the fest though as ever and so nice to have a ticket in the bag already this year

Not long now!

I've missed this being in OZ - when and where is he playing?

[Superscally]

Booooo. Not when I'm here.

Never used the abbreviation OMG before but I've just heard We Came Among This Road for the first time, fairly new to Mr Cave having got in to him during the 2013 run up and am sinced hooked, can't believe he passed me by for so long

One of my favourites!

There is a £30 edition of the Sick Bag song book coming out, might get it.

[Zoo Music Girl]

Anyone else bag a ticket for this today? Bloody expensive. But naturally I did.

[carlosj]

Just got in from work and Mrs scruff is listening to my vinyl copy of Abbatoir Blues.

All on her own without me putting it on or owt!!!

Just need to catch her listening to some of my waits of her own accord and I'll know she's truly the one for me!!

*sigh* to meet such a woman.....

He's got be the most money grabbing artist out there.

£30 for a book? Fuck off Nick.

I've been thinking this but I didn't know if I was missing the point. It's just doodles and poems and stuff as well ain't it? Dunno what the price of the reading and Q&A thing is but most authors do that for free. Seems w*nky as hell.

[Zoo Music Girl]

Yeah you guys have a point to be fair. He saw me coming!

Quite like these intimate reading and Q&A type things though. The Bunny Munro one was great.

How much is a hardback book? Especially one with full colour photo pages. £15-£20? This one comes with an ebook version. And an unabridged audiobook read by Nick Cave.

Seems kinda worth it.

[carlosj]

It's shit this working where you've actually got to do something isn't it

I've had the same since end of January. Don't manage to check half as much as I used to. Bloody employers, expecting productivity for their money!

It's crap. I've moved offices, more open plan, and got IE11 so can't quote or paste on posts. Still, it pays the bills and keeps me off the streets.

edit: MrsCJ is the woman for me. Just bought me The Good Son on vinyl for an anniversary.

Thought you were just backtracking at first cos she'd seen what you wrote earlier.

What happens on eFestivals, stays on eFestivals....

Paraphrasing George Thorogood, 'I geek alone'. MrsCJ comes to gigs (even after that strange woman at the Hop) but she prefers not to join me at Glastonbury. Given how much my cousin snores in the van, she's right there.

The first rule of shhh is you do not talk about shhh!

[admscott]

Anybody hear the interview on Front Row the other day?

[jeffie]

Some film something about 20,000 days on earth premieres on channel 4 next week. Thought you lot might want to know. How bloody nice am I?

Off to his solo gig in Nottingham Thursday (30th). Our silver wedding anniversary gift to ourselves, gonna do the hotel, concert, meal shebang.

So close....

[dentalplan]

Seriously?

[Moon Monkey]

great gig, now heading for Edinburgh & then onto to Newcastle. Pleased it wasn't all ballads, but stripped down stuff was beautiful

[russycarps]

sounds good! I'm not going to read this thread any more as I dont want to see too much of the setlist.....but Ive never been sure about his cover of avalanche....a lot of what makes that song ace is cohens guitar playing.

[yaniv297]

I ended up selling my RAH ticket to go to Primavera festival instead. Nick's one of my all time favorites, but I figured a whole festival is better, and i've seen him already.

Those shows do look great though. As a huge 'Let Love In' fan (possibly favorite album of all time), I was really excited about hearing 'Nobody's Baby' 'I Let Love In' and 'Lay Me Low'. If he plays all 3 in RAH, I'll be gutted... if he only does one like yesterday, I think I'll be quite happy with my choice of going to the festival instead.

[When Jokers Attack]

Absolute brilliant gig and setlist. thought it would be a lot more stripped back than it was.

Only time I've been to an all seated gig where nobody was seated at the end of the gig (on the groundfloor anyway).

[Vanderlyle]

Avalanche should never be played, or watched. It's like watching the video in The Ring.

Got 2 tickets for Gateshead tonight going free if anyone can use them, would just need to pick them up from me in Morley (Leeds). Also 1 return train ticket Leeds-Newcastle if you can use it too? Let me know here ASAP, would rather someone got to use them!
