Off to see SWR tomorrow night at Newcastle o2. Had a canny wait - was postponed due to illness the very day I received my tickets. Typical. To be fair though the Ryder was genuinely ill and fair play to him for coming back fighting. Has had some pretty mixed reviews about his tour so far, where he's been singing Mondays, Black Grape and solo songs. Shambolic and chaotic are words been touted - so not at all in the Mondays spirit then...
Not really fussed if it's only an hour set, that Wrote For Luck is omitted, that he'll forget half the lyrics and that he'll have to be dragged through the songs by his backing singers. No, I'm buzzing at the fact I'm going to see a cultural icon and musical genius belt out some classic tunes from two of my favourite bands of all times. You can't put a price on that. Actually you can. £16. Bargain.
