Walter Kidd Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Thought about going but would take a whitey of biblical proportions if I had to smoke as much ganj as I used to do to enjoy their stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pablo Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Do they still have the DJ instead of a support act? Now he played some seriously good music. I'll be there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Craig_ Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 has anyone heard any new material? There's a couple of tunes from the ATP Festival they did last year on the internet. Sounds pretty damn good. Bit more uptempo and industrial as I remember, but I was fairly pished when I heard it! Do they still have the DJ instead of a support act? Now he played some seriously good music. I'll be there. That's Andy Smith. Don't think he tours with Portishead any more, but he's playing at the Voodoo Rooms on the 16th of Feb. Should be a cracking night! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tazio Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I saw them years ago at the Usher Hall and thought it was a bit sterile. Beth Gibbons has an amazing voice but the whole thing sounded a bit too much like the album in terms of the quality. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Carl Weathers Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 That's Andy Smith. Don't think he tours with Portishead any more, but he's playing at the Voodoo Rooms on the 16th of Feb. Should be a cracking night! Sorry to take this of course a bit but what's the Voodoo rooms like? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frankblack Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Picked up a ticket as Dummy is one of my favourite albums - it is a classic with no fillter tracks. The follow-up album isn't quite as good, but reports do indicate the new stuff is a return to form. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Craig_ Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Sorry to take this of course a bit but what's the Voodoo rooms like? It's what used to be the function rooms of the Cafe Royal (upstairs). Pretty hideous paint job, but they have some pretty decent guests. Saw David Holmes there a couple of months back - superb! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angry Haggis Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 ?28.50 a ticket! Blow me. Corn Exchange as well...rank. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
