Ok, I'm going to see Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, and I'm excited.
I haven't seen any live music for 18 months (that was members of Henry Cow and others (including the film maker Sally Potter) performing the music of Lindsay Cooper, and it was great), but on Friday I will be seeing Kyary. (To be fair, the music will be backing tapes, but I don't care; I was going to concerts with backing tapes 35 years ago (Richard Strange, at West Hampstead, The Fall at Camden, a few days after the group had walked out (one of the times that happened) and mark was left with Julia on keyboards, the dancer Michael Clarke on backing vocals and chair chucking, and a scared-looking woman playing drums; the bass and basic rhythm tracks were pre-recorded that time).
Anyway, here she is, a couple of years ago:
Come on, eh? eh?

I saw her! I needn't have worried about standing out, the only middle-aged bloke amongst a crown of teenage girls, as the place was a veritable sausage fest. She played for 90 minutes and never let up.  This is not from the concert we saw, but from a date in Australia a few weeks ago (the sound is terrible): |

Ha! The last concert I saw at this venue (Koko, formerly The Music Machine, near Mornington Crescent), was The Doctors of Madness in 1978 (with TV Smith out of the Adverts):  |

Going on Tuesday to see Thriller, the Jackson story and music, fresh from the West End and now on tour
Like all these music concerts we will only go if we can get seats right at the front to avoid all the audience who insist on standing up and dancing, and blocking the view

45 minutes of the Kyary concert: this starts at Ninja re bang bang, which was about the 4th song of the set. (Not taken by me; I was further back and more central; in any case, I don't have a smart phone.)
