    Or joint 5th, depending on how you count it 😝 Still, I'm aiming for nul points next time at best, or at worst, instant disqualification and a lifetime ban 🤘

    You should never have given me hippos. You knows how dangerous they are!!! All I'm saying is, Be Afraid... Be Very Afraid!

    I don't think Turner and Drinkstable are necessarily comparable - Turner was far more impressionist and Constibule more idealised. Neither of which apply to Mrs Moloko. Dali, however, was surrealist in a "that's fookin' mad, that!" sort of way, whereas Ms. Murphy was only surreal in the same way that someone might say "that's surreal" when actually they meant something else entirely. In her case, the sort of art I'd compare her to is this amazing restoration:

    I attempted to watch Raisin Murpy's set earlier... Despite all the positive comments here I found it a bit painful. It was like, faking the funk - a reasonable backing band playing funk-by-numbers; they were all hiding at the back of the stage somewhere while Ms Burpy strode about in a completely out of time fashion, occasionally doing some sort of "dance move" which was even more out of time and generally a bit bizarre. Then she strapped on a weird green thing, strode about a bit more in her big trousers and somebody started with a horrible electronic cymbal thing which just pecked at me 'ed. So I turned it off and watched Bootsy Live At North Sea Jazz Festival dvd instead.

    Obvs! I'm all about The Folk, The Whole Folk And Nothing But The Folk... Don't Fake the Folk!

    Make it something wild and crazy, and above all, funky as feck!
  8. Leonard Smalls
    Aye! As The Doors sang long ago "De doo de doo de, doo de da doodoodoo, doo de da doodoodoo, Some People Are Tw@ts"...

    👌🤘 More importantly, who's going to get the next photo sorted? You won before Mr. Soup? If not I vote you choose!
  10. Leonard Smalls
    Aye, but I meant Dub Band or LKJ era...
  11. Leonard Smalls
    I'd have liked to play in Dennis Bovell's band...
  12. Leonard Smalls
    You'd be most welcome. While they were funky as, I don't think I'd have liked the constant fines for missing a note!
  13. Leonard Smalls
    I think it may have been considerably more than that!

    Bootsy, in the Parliament rather than James Brown, days. It was just about Funkin' For Fun! And obviously shedloads of drugs, which of course would make it very difficult to stand up on those platform boots.

    But it's not their job to be as confused as him! 😁

    Just watched 'em... What a glorious racket! There was, after all, some Good Stuff at the fest!

    This is my favourite Crass thing...
  18. Leonard Smalls
    It's a fix, I tell ya! Still, pub tonight...
  19. Leonard Smalls
    Nope... I prefer pasta to pasty. Though I quite like the Cornish flag, and sea cliffs.

    I feel I'd have got more votes if my name didn't have that extra "r"! 😁

    Haven't found Black Midi yet, but did find Squid... Didn't even know they were playing! Great drum based grooves and general oddness. Like New York No Wave was back! Somewhere between James Chance, Talking Heads, Marc Ribot and Alt J...
  22. Leonard Smalls
    Hadn't even noticed they were on! Shall have a look - they're somewhere between Sonny Sharrock and Girlband, for those that like that sort of thing...
  23. Leonard Smalls
    The beggars kept 20 of my pounds!
  24. Leonard Smalls
    A function band's set is the list you will get if you ask me what all my least favourite songs in the whole world are...
  25. Leonard Smalls
    Aye... Got my cancellation email yesterday! Unfortunately the Mrs wants to keep the relatively cheapo Lowry Hotel booking and turn it into a shopping trip 😪
