I saw the gig was coming when I was in the depot last week and we went. Simon was not disappointed. Like me, he loved it.
I love the syncopated rhythms. I love the way the voice is an instrument. I love the way I'm asking questions about pink military and the gang of four.
I've no idea what I'm talking about but I know how much I enjoyed the gig.
I've never seen a band in the last 20 years who have lifted me out of retirement into deadbeat mode like Scorpio leisure did a year ago. They were supporting Scars and boots for dancing. They blew them away. They were brilliant.
This was my chance to correct that. I confirm they are brilliant.
I chuckle 40 years on from the deadbeat days at the subjects we left as taboo.
When you're over 60 the average male needs a blue pill, they should listen to Scorpio leisure. No pill required they have you feeling it and you long for more. I think it was the same groove that the over 60's female heard. In fact I think the gig was full of people who enjoyed it. They loved it. They loved it because it was great.
I love the monochrome set because their rhythms are so beautiful in their dysfunctional direction. I'm not a real music buff I just like what I like.
What I listened to tonight was as pure as you can hope for. It was a sell out tonight.
I hope for a larger audience for Scorpio Leisure soon. They deserve it and the audience will thrive on it. Queens Hall here we come.
