Simple Simon’s, Canterbury
Simple Simon’s, Canterbury, 26th August 2002:
Not a bad gig. I had to rush in and out so quickly that I’ve forgotten the surname of the bloke I was supporting! His first name is David and he is from Chile.
I was on the bill (with 24 hours notice!) as “the eclectic electric eccentric”. Make of that what you will…
I couldn’t quite hit all the high notes on “What Is The Light?”, but all-in-all I think I did okay. Crowd reaction was vaguely receptive. Someone said I sounded like Morrissey (say what?!), but I didn’t kill him (he was too quick for me).
Set list:
- Whisky Man ( John Entwistle)
- ES-40 (Williams)
- Bobby-Sox Blues (T- Bone Walker)
- Cocoon (Williams)
- Force Of Nature (Williams)
- Fido, Your Leash Is Too Long (Magnetic Fields)
- What Is The Light? (Flaming Lips)
- The Medway Crab Fisherman (Williams)
- Duncan Down (Williams)
- What’s Under The Stairs? (Williams)
