Blur Fan Club:
Black Saveloys review
FC member Simon Henry went to see
The Black Saveloy's last night. Here is what he
thought, with the identity of this mystery band
being revealed:
How good it was to see Graham
back on stage and playing again. Sometimes in the
middle of Blur-mania, even I forget just how
amazing it is to see this guy play. And after my
disappointment in Amsterdam, this was one helluva
kick up the backside and a 35 minute set that
absolutely rocked the tiny venue to it's core.
The speed and vigour of Graham's guitar playing
was amazing - and Roddy and Toby were there again
(remember the Roxons) to add more loud thrash and
bass. What a performance! I can't get over how
good it was. After opening with Escape Song,
Graham played four new songs and then four old
ones, then a final new one. This was the set:
Escape Song ; Spectacular ; No Good Time ;
Hopeless Friend ; Freakin Out ; I Wish ; Revolver
; Fags & Failure ; Who The Fuck? ; People of
the Earth
Graham reportedly commented that
his album is due for release in March of next
year.
