i went to his gig last night and loved it!! they were playing for almost two and a half hours. it was sort of acoustic version this time because he only had 3 bad seeds members along (violinist, drumer and bass guitarist, nick was on piano) and they're only going to play 5 gigs of this kind (two in my home town) of this kind. he's awesome at interacting with the crowd, he was constantly talking to us and the band, he even played couple of songs on request - he even forgot how to start those songs so he asked someone to sing a bit so he could remember :) the music part was brilliant, they really function great together, and nick's voice is just fantastic. they were real aggressive on some songs (tupelo was wicked!!) and the violinist broke his strings couple of times and nick started to make fun of him imedately..also he said the drumer to keep it down a bit because he was real heavy on some parts - everyoone started to laugh then and nick was like; he's on drugs, but he's alright, just keep it down..
i love his stuff, always so morbid, even if the lyrics are sort of more optimistic..and the sad songs just want to tear my heart appart..i definitely prefer his music live though, it gets much much more touching. <3

how popular is he in uk btw? i mean he really has a lot of fans in these parts of the world, i wonder if it's like that everywhere..because it's a bit odd that he's having 4 out of 5 gigs of this sort over here.

Cool that you thought his gig was cool. I got his latest album(s) many months ago but only recently ''got'' it. Quite a deep piece of work.
What do you think of the Birthday Party, you like them?

The first Birthday Party is my favorite Nick Cave joint and one of my favorite albums ever. The yelping and the barking and the crazy tunes. But the last couple of BP albums don't grab me so I'm glad he went solo, it was meant to be.

oh, i must check if i have that first one..i know i only have two, i thought that was all there was! and i don't really see it like he went too solo. bad seeds give a lot of them in what they do i think, their music suits his lyrics fantastic!

True, Nick has a lot of great backup, it ain't no solo gig. But you know what I mean.
The first one is the''Boys Next Door'' album, the one with Happy Birthday, Friend Catcher, Riddle House, Mr. Clarinet, etc. Those songs drive me up the wall.

It's quite groovy, actually. Bass is in the forefront on a lot of the songs. I think I'll enjoy this album a lot.

3/5 after first listen, it's not boring but it's not that mind blowing either. might be a grower ! at least it's not another Cave's "ballad" album, that's good
