It's all ridiculous. Big Country died when Stuart died.

On some levels that's obviously correct, but the band have been reformed for a very long time and played an awful lot of gigs since then.

I see that another iteration of Big Country are about to start doing the rounds, featuring one Ken Nicol on guitar. "Hang on" I thought to myself "That name sounds familiar..."
I'm assuming the respective ex-members of BC behind each version are not on nodding terms at present?  


I think Big Country are technically Bruce Watson's aren't they?  What other version is there now, then - Mark Brzezicki's I guess?


It is indeed the the foundation and backbone beat behind Big Country. He's gone big with the logo and everything.


Hmmm.  Well, the lawyers will make loads, even if the musicians don't...

Tunng at Trades Club, Hebden Bridge. Lovely little venue, bit of a trek for us but Hebden Bridge is very pleasant, as is the Vocation brewery bar. Tunng were great, set list consisted largely of 1st and latest albums.

Tunng tonight at the Trades Club in Hebden Bridge. First time I've been to this venue.


Oh you lucky thing...on both counts.  I know the Trades well. Only seen Tunng once...a very long time ago.  Very jealous!

Ashley Hutchings and Blair Dunlop last night at the Plough, Great Torrington.  First night of their tour of the Southwest, and we got a mix of songs and stories. Ashley hardly played his bass - probably only on 3 or 4 songs - but we got songs going back to Lay Down Your Weary Tune up to some from Blair's new album.  We heard a bit about how the connection with Bob Dylan was made recently (via Nigel Schofield, apparently).  It was a bit chaotic - I'm not sure how much they'd really planned out what they were going to do - and I was a bit concerned when the first half only lasted about 30 minutes, but we did get a full hour or a bit more after the break.
