"1969" aside, I actually prefer the Twilight Singers output. I'd go see this if they came to Dublin, but I wouldn't travel for it.

It's 1965. But you're probably right...1965 is the best thing Dulli's ever done.

I was half asleep at the end of a 7 night week of night duty when I wrote that. Oops.
Glad you agree with me though. Most Whigs fan seem to prefer Black Love, Congregation or Gentleman over 1965. I thnk they are wrong. I recently got the Music on Vinyl re-release of 1965. It's now a double 12" LP (not gatefold though). Second LP has all the b-sides. The day I got it my record player died. Dulli killed my turntable!

I'm going to see them in Hamsterdam on the 12th!

I know I said I wouldn't travel for it, but, well, Dulli's always good live!

Ah, have fun in Amsterdam. Shame it's not Brussels. That's a much nicer venue than Paradiso. :)

Wonder what the London setlist was? The NY setlist was amazing.

London was the same as NY, minus Somethin' Hot.
