The amazing ...So, you're a fan quitdreaming...<br /><br />The amazing thing about BN is his appetite for creativity. I don't know of any of his contemporaries with such an incredible work ethic. I have to be honest and say that not all of it excites me, but a considerable amount of it does... but Gods teeth, I'm so glad he's still doing it. <br /><br />It was a fantastic night and I am a little sad that Bill found it less than fulfilling (at the time)but I think a great piece of Art has come from it and hopefully, it may arose a bit of interest in the Great Man's body of work - especially if it gets shown on the TV.<br /><br />...and thanks for dropping by!Rushbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17368726463563067313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2358784019076014858.post-86288138972831404372011-06-17T21:02:31.971+01:002011-06-17T21:02:31.971+01:00Excellent review!

The DVD is a must-see for any Bill Nelson fan or anyone who appreciates a true professional / creative genius at 'work'. If you like Bill's home-recorded work, you'll simply gasp at the faster, tighter,live delivery of old familiar favourites, with soul-elevating guitar solos (and even extra twiddly-bits shoe-horned in - somehow!) by a true genius.quitdreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17122530173772913116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2358784019076014858.post-67408099743315158852011-03-30T01:38:30.447+01:002011-03-30T01:38:30.447+01:00I am awestruck that this even took place and that ...I am awestruck that this even took place and that someone I have the ability to converse with witnessed it. If Don is jealous times three, I double that.<br /><br />If I had to pick a tune, it would be "Axe Victim." But looking at the set list, Bill could have removed 5 songs and I would have been happy.<br /><br />re:heroes<br /><br />Frank Sinatra was a sweetheart.<br />Todd Rundgren was not.

I see the set list was very similar to the one played at Nelsonica last November (although I'll be intrigued to hear how the songs sound with Gavin Griffiths on drums, especially 'October Man'). Sounds like a fantastic evening; can't wait for the DVD!My Life of Woehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07647965462669282388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2358784019076014858.post-43070760194631188682011-03-28T23:15:58.335+01:002011-03-28T23:15:58.335+01:00Well it's coming out on DVD, so the moment isn...Well it's coming out on DVD, so the moment isn't lost forever.<br /><br />As for meeting your heroes, I admire your restraint! I met Steve Kilbey and Marty Willson-Piper of the Church at a gig at the Borderline sometime in the 90's. MWP (who I thought would be a Diva for no real reason) was niceness itself. Kilbey (my ultimate hero at the time) was - let's say, less than lovely. <br /><br />I'm delighted to say that I've met Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow of The Posies a few times and they were always brilliant. Ya live and learn, eh?Rushbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17368726463563067313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2358784019076014858.post-19083227882755705182011-03-28T22:55:39.217+01:002011-03-28T22:55:39.217+01:00Fantastic article!
Jealous Jealous Jealous Jealou...Fantastic article!<br /><br />Jealous Jealous Jealous Jealous!!!!!!!!!!!<br /><br />I suppose you'd always look at the setlist and say No xxxxx ????? I'd say Burning Apostles.<br /><br />I'd also endorse the meeting your heroes bit. I've been stung by a few but surprised by a few.<br /><br />Ian Hunter was the nicest ever, I won't go into the bad ones, suffice to say two of my biggest heroes were pricks.<br /><br />You were so lucky. I'm really envious.Anything Should Happenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05593722184088140203noreply@blogger.com
