I've got the Quaye...I've got the secret.
Remember this? Yep, Finley Quaye with THE sound of summer a few years back. Well, he's back (actually I'm sure he's never been away but I think this is the first national tour for a while) and he's playing The Rainbow on Thursday 19th March! Listening to some of his newer material he's moved more towards his rasta reggae roots and, with the promise of a full live band, this gigs gonna be especially 'irie'. I understand that tickets are selling as fast as a bagful of skunk at Glasto (now that's fast) so, if you want to go, head over to The Ticket Sellers right now.

Amanda Palmer...because you need her in your life.
A lovely video that I came across during my long dark trawl through t'web...in it Amanda gets drunk, raped and has an abortion. All in the name of art obviously...watch and learn. Amanda I salute you...and your painted on eyebrows.

Ipso Facto / Hatcham Social / Poppy and the Jezebels @ The Rainbow, Wednesday 4th March 2009
Finally, Ipso Facto. I have a confession to make here, father forgive me, for I have sinned. I have a 'thing' for girls in black. So four sexy (PC-ness be damned) girls in black, playing a goth tinged set...well, it was pretty close to heaven...albeit a very dark heaven, with cobwebs, vampires, those bloody big spiders with hairy legs and black eyeliner for all. The lead Facto, Rosalie, has a Siouxsie edge to her voice (again, heaven for me) and the whole thing is propelled along with meaty drumming, throbbing bass and graveyard keyboards. Have a listen to standout track and set highlight 'Six and Three Quarters' (on their MySpace thingy) and you'll see what I mean. Now, where did I put that black eyeliner...
