[tufty79]

ah fuck it, let's do it at the albert and sell tickets

 

[bluestreak]

i'm not sure 'sell' is the right word.

 

[Skim]

Glad I saw this thread – I misread the OP and thought the tickets were on sale next Wednesday

Anyway, we have tickets for the stalls

 

[tastebud]

Shite, I can only assume the rev got tickets. Totally forgot about this (v hungover )

 

[The_Reverend_M]

Tastebud - our tall friend managed to get tix for us - no box unfortunately but seats at all is something we should be thankful for me thinks!

 

[tastebud]

yay for the tall friend. I'm glad about not having a box actually, don't think my wallet would've coped v well.

 

[colacubes]

Get the fuck in. I have tickets for the balcony

Only a few seats left now as well...

 

[The_Reverend_M]

We're Rear Stalls row HH ... if memory serves me correct that's not too bad at all

 

[Mation]

Me too. Remembered at about 6 o'clock last night and they'd all sold out. If anyone has any going spare..........

 

[Mation]

[pootle]

Another - "arse! Only just saw this thread" type post.

Oh well! I'm sure I'll find a way to see her if I try hard enough.

 

[SubZeroCat]

Yay, I have a ticket thanks to the Rev

 

[Calva dosser]

Glad I haven't. She only makes me Kwy.

[Calva dosser]

Try the other Rev. Same record label innit?

Just one hundred would do.

 

[Skim]

No support and she's onstage at 9. Things look quite promising, judging by the setlists for the recent Manchester and Bristol gigs. Here's the one from Manc:

Oh My Lover
Send His Love To Me
Man-Size
The Devil
White Chalk
Dress
Angelene
My Beautiful Leah
Nina In Ecstasy
Electric Light
Snake
Big Exit
Down By The Water
The Mountain
Rid Of Me

Silence
Horses In My Dreams
The Desperate Kingdom Of Love

Angelene – oh yes

 

[colacubes]

It's tonight

I woke up early cos I was so excited

 

[colacubes]

She was amazing

 

[clandestino]

She was amazing

Wasn't she?! A great night!

 

[colacubes]

Wasn't she?! A great night!

I loved it when she put the drum machine to one side for not working and then gave the keyboard a hug for behaving itself

 

[The Groke]

 

[The_Reverend_M]

I've always liked her but after last night my love of her/her work has grown in leaps and bounds!

I've seen her a few times at festivals before but never at one of her own gigs - given the spotlight she shined most brightly

So so so talented

Am loving her new higher singing voice on the new album - sounded even better live in the confines of the rfh - 'white chalk' is fast becoming my favourite polly album

 

[Skim]

'Splendiferous!'

Wow... that was special. It was like watching her down the pub or something – the fairy lights round the piano, the cheap disco lights And then her music, all stripped down, just her and no one else.

And in between her beautiful singing she was so funny and charming and lovely

I can't write without gushing, so I'll stop.

I actually want to marry her. I'm leaving for Yeovil tonight.

 

[clandestino]

The disco lights were hilarious.

 

[Skim]

I paid £40 a ticket for that!

 

[clandestino]

It was three lights wasn't it? The four light disco is for the £60 ticket show at the Royal Opera House.


I loved the fact she went to all that trouble, just for a joke. Bless her.

Awww she rules! I love her. I love the new album... fucking excellent gig. RFH was perfect for it.
