Hi,
Teenage Fanclub sounded really, really good at the 9:30 club last night. They added a keyboard player to fill the sound. It was interesting to watch the different band personalities on stage. Norman Blake looked like he was having the time of his life, he spoke between most songs. And I understood his Scottish accent! Meanwhile bassist Gerard Love would venture to the mike in front of the stage only to sing, escaping to the comfort of his amp at the rear of the stage at every opportunity. He often faced the drummer.
Somebody posted the setlist on the band's message board. They concentrated on the new album, playing seven songs from "Man Made" and also six from "Grand Prix". They ended the six encores with a Bevis Frond song, "He'd Be a Diamond".
Great to hear auditeer DJ Wren spinning when the bands were not playing. He played the Greenberry Woods "Trampoline" and incredibly, an unreleased Starbelly song, "Already".
See ya,
Sherman
