We Saw The Sea

Congrats to who splashed into the top 10 of the albums chart today. I do hope that they celebrated quietly and that their tour is proceeding without any great danger to life.
I say this because when the band played their Spring & Airbrake in Belfast last Thursday, they were on some kind of terrifying mission. A band member hurled himself into the audience with a tuba. The lady with the violin was dressed as a woodland creature, possibly a badger. There were marionettes hanging from the ceiling, maybe of a Weimar provenance. And of course the band were wearing that strange gear; Enid Blyton adventurers meet early Spandau Ballet. I hope it never catches on.
Songs from the peppy new album ‘Do You Like Rock Music?’ were well aired. By encore time, there was a proper frenzy in the house and Noble had grown tired of clambering over PA stacks and lighting struts. His last gesture was to go charging off the stage, high into the air and to catch a support pillar in the middle of the crowd. We heard the clunk of flesh and bone connecting to a solid chunk of architecture. And while he managed to clamber back on stage, we saw the look on his face. The guy was in pain. We felt for him, man.
