Yeah, I bought it a couple of weeks back. To my shame, it's still lying on the "need to listen to pile" of CDs at the side of my stereo along with a dozen other things.

A big fat yay from me!

Musically it's a less commercial Garage sound. Biggest grime artist is probably Dizee Rascal.

Get your asses along, people. If a comedy group like Goldie Lookin' Chain can sell out The Lemon Tree then a hip hop legend like Guru should be selling out a venue twice the size.

I intend to go down on the Saturday to see Text of Light.

Had a look at the forum on nickcaveandthebadseeds.com and this was the Friday night setlist apparently (and I'm now gutted as he played The Ship Song that night) - Set I: Abattoir Blues / There She Goes, My Beautiful World / Messiah Ward / Hiding All Away / Easy Money / Supernaturally / Babe, You Turn Me On / Breathless / Nature Boy / The Lyre of Orpheus / Carry Me / Get Ready For Love / O Children Set II: The Weeping Song / City of Refuge / The Ship Song / Deanna / God Is In The House / Henry Lee / Red Right Hand / Lay Me Low / Stagger Lee New Morning (Backing Singers Only Band Had Left Stage)

35.99 from www.cd-wow.com/snapfax 37.99 from www.play.com Not that bad, I suppose. Mind you, saying that, I got the Low box set - which also has 3 CDs & a DVD - for 14.99 from play.com when it was released in the summer.

Bumping this up again.... get yer asses along tonight!

http://www.nme.com/news/110317.htm JOHN PEEL DIES OF HEART ATTACK JOHN PEEL has died of a heart attack aged 65. The broadcasting legend, who had a career spanning over 40 years, was on holiday in Peru when he was taken ill. A statement has been issued by the BBC which reads: "It has been confirmed that BBC radio broadcaster John Peel died from a heart attack last night whilst on holiday in Peru. He leaves behind his wife Sheila and four children." Radio 1 controller Andy Parfitt said "John Peel was a broadcasting legend. I am deeply saddened by his death as are all who work at Radio 1. Johns influence has towered over the development of popular music for nearly four decades and his contribution to modern music and music culture is immeasurable. "Hopeful bands all over the world sent their demo tapes to John knowing that he really cared. His commitment and passion for new music only grew stronger over the years. In fact, when I last saw him he was engaged in a lively debate with his fellow DJs over the state of new music today. He will be hugely missed. " BBC Director of Radio & Music Jenny Abramsky added "John Peel was a unique broadcaster whose influence on Radio 1 could be felt from its very first days. He nurtured musicians and listeners alike introducing them to new sounds. His open minded approach to music was mirrored by his equally generous approach to his audience when he went to Radio 4 to present Home Truths. "He had a remarkable rapport with all his listeners. Everyone at BBC Radio is devastated by the news. John is simply irreplaceable. Our hearts go out to Sheila and his children." Peel was born in Heswall near Chester and started his radio career in Dallas, Texas. Throughout the 1960s he worked at a number of radio stations across the US, before returning to Radio London in 1967. Over a career spanning 40 years Peel consistently championed new music, and in 1994 was given the NME Godlike Genius award for his services to music.

Yeah, just heard it on the radio just now - died of a heart attack while on holiday in Peru.

I've PM'd Chili with the thread details.
