Well, it was definitely worth the wait....

What a fucking band - just as good as the Academy 3 in 2003. That voice, that voice...

Please please please don't let it be another 3 years

Glad it was worth the wait :D
I'm seeing them tomorrow (I may have mentioned that a few times today ;) )
Did the new stuff go down well?

DiamondDays · Aug 25, 2006, 07:52 AM

Yeah - I think there were quite a few new converts who were only familiar with Z. 'Gideon' went down a storm, as it jolly well should.

Somewhat predictably, it was 'Mahgeetah' and 'Golden' that really did it for me though.

Elbow were there en masse and seemed to be having a good time. Last gig I saw Guy Garvey at was Josh Pearson - the man certainly has taste!

Hope you have a good time tonight - sure you will

It was the Doves in mass..not Elbow...well maybe Elbow were there but i did'nt see em ;)

Yes I saw Doves too... not surprising really as MMJ supported Doves 3 years ago.... Not as long a set as in November 2003 but still as good.

This review seems better and includes a great change of album title, to boot :D

It Still Comes! LOL ;D

Isn't that a Keith Richards solo album?

Also, is it noodling? Or is it a well thought out, richly layered, technical, mind melting, other wordly jam session?
