There's something really special about live music. I don't know what it is, but you just can't get the same power out of a recorded track.
Live music provokes a great responce in me, I'm totally unable to be stressed, upset or anything similar after listening to the sweet sounds of a guitar or beautiful voice.
So I'm quite surprised that I haven't been to the Talking Heads before in the two years I've been in Southampton, despite numerous invites. We went last night and there were some amazing people playing, some real talent.
In particular there was a band called
The Sways who played mostly chilled out rock. They had a briliant electric double bass though, looked and sounded fantastic.
But what I wanted to say is that it got me all excited. I don't think I've mentioned before in my weblog, but I recently bought a ticket to Leeds Festival. It was
quite a hole in pocket, but it's going to be sooo cool. If anyone wants to join me (and Andrew, Clare, Little Richard, and a few other randoms I know) then go get a ticket. I can't wait! Yay.
