We went out, on a week day
OK my prediction of Morrissey joining them on stage was a complete fabrication, but we did get Bernard Butler appearing with them to perform "Love's a Game", which then medleyed on into "People Get Ready". They did another wacky ending of another of their songs, turning it into Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill". Great gig, really good, having a string section added a dimension I expect (though I've not seen The 'Numbers before, and getting other artists up to join in was cool (The Smoke Fairies, nope me either, apparently they were at Meltdown though). We had to leave during the encore, think they were overrunning. Our seats weren't great, about as far back as you can be, but you get a good view in the Festival Hall anyway. A few pictures up already, I'm just working on a bit of video footage of Bernard on stage, I didn't get a whole song, maybe two minutes though. Still waiting for the full sized memory stick to arrive.
UPDATE: Video up now. It really does focus after 20 seconds or so:
Nice tea in Pizza Express before the show, we did try a few other places on the South Bank but they were all queued out the door. Mitchell and Webb were in there with a big party, all in tuxedos, think they were just on their way to or from the Comedy Awards, where they won.
Got decorators in at the moment, everything's covered in dust but they made good progress on their first day, they've repaired more of the walls and ceiling than were actually caused by the earthquake, and we get a fresh coat on all walls and ceilings.
Work Christmas lunch today, in Canterbury. I'm kind of hoping The Brewery Tavern get my food wrong so I have an excuse to nip out to Wagamama :-)

For me, this is a privilege and I will rise to it. Curating Meltdown is a great opportunity for me to acknowledge some of the music and words that have excited me over the years. Some of you have Ipods, I have Meltdown.
Morrissey is curating this years Meltdown at the Royal Festival Hall... it's on from the 11th to the 27th of June, and there will be full details at www.rfh.org.uk/meltdown/. For now there's just a lovely picture of Morrissey, with a ruddy great shooter.
The man himself says "For me, this is a privilege and I will rise to it. Curating Meltdown is a great opportunity for me to acknowledge some of the music and words that have excited me over the years. Some of you have Ipods, I have Meltdown."
Two years ago Meltdown was curated by Dame David Bowie, and I was lucky enough to get tickets to see his show at RFH, how exciting is that? I'VE NO IDEA, because the bloody thing clashed with Glastonbury Festival, and I had to choose, and we chose Glastonbury...
