Quote from: ntpntpntp on Today at 02:29:52 PMI absolutely love Ultravox, but struggle to get into Midge's solo output to the same degree.

The thing that sticks out for me in @Foxhound 's video post is the drum/cymbal sounds are obviously from an electric kit, just doesn't sound quite as good (speaking as a drummer who has a leccie kit at home but real accoustic kits for gigs)

Yes, I thought it was a leccie kit too. His bass player was very good, needed to be up a bit more in the mix, I thought.

My good lady and I fulfilled another of her musical ambitions and saw Midge Ure at our local venue.

The guy is a machine, word and note perfect. Totally blown away by the whole gig.

Footage from the gig (not mine) is here

Quote from: ntpntpntp on May 21, 2026, 01:31:05 PMAs a huge Cocteau Twins fan I've recently latched on to Ashen Ringlets, who as well as lovely originals have also produced some great CT covers.


Also a big fan of Mint Julep who create songs in a similar dreamy style to CT


That's some rabbit hole you've sent me down, Nick. Both great but I think Mint Julep edging it for me. I could listen to both bands all day.

Thank you for your generous donation Mark, I'm sure you understand what a worthwhile cause it is.

That I do Michael. Though this vet hasn't needed support, I know some who have had to seek support beyond the NHS. That support is largely only available thanks to those volunteers like you. Thank you!  :heart:
