In May, back to Sadlers Wells (Peacock Theatre, next to the LSE) for Yamato. I still recall vividly the Japanese drummers Ondeko Za at SW many years ago. Hoping this troupe will also prove similarly memorable).

Blimey, itās 46 years since I saw them live. Quite memorable, strangely!! Lol.
I think they were supporting Nine Below Zero. It could have been the other way round, canāt remember.
Tori Amos next Thursday in Newcastle. Iām prepared to be disappointed. In her recent appearance on the BBC she didnāt look well and her voice sounded subdued. And weirdly she is doing a UK tour before the album comes out. So Iām expecting a load of new tracks that no one knows, so a lot of silence.

Didnāt they go off plan and set about destroying guitars and speakers on The Old Grey Whistle Test c. 1977?

Not aware of that Brian but all too plausible.
Found something on www from October 1977 with John Peel hosting OGWT. John Otway attempts to jump onto a speaker but trips and hurts himself. Not quite the destruction I described above.
