Audience demographic? I've been to some fantastic gigs but scanning the audience it's just loads and loads of old blokes looking like they're watching paint dry

That could have a lot to do with it, as there was a lot of grey hair. Although I saw them a couple of years ago at the Royal Albert Hall and it was a lot more lively with a similar crowd

Thursday night was Godflesh at the Scala (Kings Cross). An hour-long dub set then, after a half hour break, seventy five minutes of more conventional pummeling. It was splendid. Lots of grey/balding hair in audience, including mine of course, they were definitely not looking like they were watching paint dry. Tomorrow night, The Young Gods, their first time in Pompey since 1996!

Kara Grainger at Cranleigh.
My first time at a lovely venue. Kara's last gig on her short UK tour. Band consisted of Hammond and drums.
Sound was imperfect but improved greatly after the first set. Much played from her very recent cd, which is wonderful imo.
Any folk vaguely interested in the blues should check her out.
Disappointed I missed her private gig 12 days back.

Interesting lineup at the Haymarket, Basingstoke on Friday evening.

The fabulous Judie Tzuke and equally wonderful Beth Nielsen Chapman on stage together, singing BVs and harmonies to each other's songs and surrounded by fantastic musicians: Judie's long-time collaborator Chaz Thorogood and her daughter Bailey, Beth's pal Ruth Trimble and the wonderful classical/contemporary cellist Gabriella Swallow.
