Los kareokeos 

 

 

a dude who pretended to play a tiny keyboard to schmaltzy crap in the lounge bar.

 

Do people really think that this is what holidays are all about…

 

 

 

At least  Los Kareokoes is making a buck on top of singing his way for tips while driving the Uber to Albufeira …..and back. 
 

ah well , as Mr Green once sang 

 

 

 

edit to add

 

sat on the room balcony now , and am regaled by the sound of the wind and rain (slightly) drowning the cheesy rock being belted out from the tower block ballroom next door.

 

algarve R us 

I’m heading next door tomorrow night , sounds like a party from here , they may be playing to the bar staff for all I know , but it will be at least the bar staff and me tomorrow 😂.

A quirky gig last night.... My Wife & I went and saw the fantastic 'El Pony Pisador'. Impossible to describe but their wiki gets pretty close:

 

"El Pony Pisador is a musical group from Barcelona that mixes various styles of folk and traditional music from around the world, including Celtic music, sea songs, bluegrass, tarantella and yodel."

 

Great fun! We discovered them at Cropredy Festival in the Summer and loved them. Last night was in a tiny village hall near Chichester...

I went to see Suzanne Vega on Saturday then Macc Lads on Sunday. 

Both great gigs.

Fields of the Nephilim in Manchester on the 26th (October, that is). Met up with my own band's singer whilst there, when the mosh pit started up, she went towards it, and I backed away. I am not into that kind of thing.

Emma-Jean Thackray at Band on the Wall last night. Absurdly enjoyable. Matt Gedrych doing crucial stuff to the low end.

Nuns Of The Tundra in Frome tonight. Absolutely brilliant performance, solid desert metal riffs and a mountain of groove.

I booked tickets as soon as it was announced and then my daughters band Butane Skies were booked to support and they went down really well.

Public Service Broadcasting (with The London Contemporary Orchestra) at The Barbican.  1st November, evening show.  3rd row.

 

The current tour is supporting their Last Flight album, with a few older crowd pleasers side loaded in.

We went to the Wheatsheaf in Ingleton, a little bit smaller than the Barbican. Two Hoots were playing with @vsmith1 doing an excellent job on his rather nice Marcus Miller bass. 

 

A lot of fun with 60's, 70's and 80's covers. The only table available was right next to the ProSonus PA speaker. I can assure people that the PA does an excellent job and is very, very loud. Thankfully we brought ear plugs which made it all rather bearable. 

 

They played from 20:30 to nearly 23:00 with a short break. 

 

A good time was had by one and all. Well worth the free gig
