Do you have a link/source for this? Don't the venues seem a bit big? That is, presuming it's Jarvis you're talking about... __________________ Tell mester to fck off!*

Thanks Leo. £17.50? Sure that's peanuts these days...if you're in the Eurozone ;) I know he said an early-'09 release is likely for the new album but I wonder if he'll release a single around the time of these dates. Give 'Girls Like It Too' a lash, with a suitably hilarious video, and see if it fuels more interest ahead of the album. The whole 'release a comeback single two weeks before the album' is all well and good if the song does well, but if it doesn't make an impact the whole campaign can often fall on its arse. Still can't believe DLHWYT wasn't put out before his first solo album, considering how well it did when it was finally release as a single in January last year. Oh and there's a Manchester date in there somewhere too. -- Edited by Eamonn at 12:50, 2008-09-11 __________________ Tell mester to fck off!*

Wait, so he'll only be on for a handful of songs before giving way for some indie lightweights? __________________ Tell mester to fck off!*

Rough Trade's current roster is fairly impressive, as current rosters go: 1990s Aberfeldy Albert Hammond Antony & The Johnsons Arcade Fire A.R.E. Weapons Virginia Astley Babyshambles Beachwood Sparks Bell Orchestré Belle & Sebastian Brakes British Sea Power Basia Bulat Jarvis Cocker Cornershop The Decemberists Destroyer \| MySpace Delays Detroit Cobras Dr. Dog Cara Dillon Dirty Projectors Baxter Dury Eastern Lane Equation The Fiery Furnaces Adam Green Hal The Hidden Cameras Islands Lavender Diamond Jeffrey Lewis Jenny Lewis The Libertines The Long Blondes Low The Mescalitas Miracle Fortress The Moldy Peaches Oneida Phantom Buffalo Queen Adreena Eddi Reader Relaxed Muscle Alasdair Roberts Royal City Hope Sandoval & The Warm Inventions Scissors For Lefty Scritti Politti The Strokes Sufjan Stevens Sun Kil Moon Super Furry Animals Emiliana Torrini The Tyde The Unicorns The Veils If Jarvis is tying this show to to Pulp's 30th Anniversary, I figure there's some slim chance he might polish off a tune from "It" or maybe something older. He did strum a few bars of Shakespeare Rock recently. __________________

You're right Fuss Free, didn't realise I had so many albums by Rough Trade artists in my cd collection. The article on nme.com suggests that a lesser-light from Mr Geoff Travis' stable will support Jarvis so it looks like it might be a 'proper gig' after all. Not too keen on the whole ''Thank Abba for the music" tribute vibe. __________________ Tell mester to fck off!*

Remember last years Astoria show was part of the NME awards, & that was still a whole set. I'm pretty confident it'll be a full gig. __________________ Oh god, you'd better leave town.

I wonder if any older Rough Trade artists will be appearing (Obviously not The Smiths, though.) Here's a full list of everyone ever signed to the label. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rough_Trade_Records -- Edited by Mike at 14:46, 2008-09-12 __________________ Back from the dead -- Music From a Bachelor's Den!

I'll see you down the front hopefully! Was right at the front of the Roundhouse gig, but nature called after he had only played one song and I had to surrender my position to go to the toilet!! :( Have to be careful not to drink too much before the show this time! __________________ www.LeoVK.com twitter.com/LeoVK
