END OF THE MONTH CLUB
13th Note Cafe, Glasgow, Thu 30th May

 

It does just what its name suggests, but much more - on tv it'd be a 'review' show, but here in the 13th Note it's a soundtrack for 'Have I Got News For You'; our hosts a Half Man Half Biscuit for the internet generation, as snippets of current affairs are set to a bewildering array of mixed-up messed-up sounds. Minor celebrities are celebrated and pilloried as our hosts cook up a variety of satirical tunes, like the Roy Keane saga set to music, and a soundclash pitting Ozzy Ozbourne against 80's Scots popster Owen Paul. And there's music too - taking centre stage tonight is Sean Dickson, who arrives, Omnichord in lap, allowing TJ Boz to work the decks. The High Fidelity / Bozilla marriage works a treat and prompts a promise of collaborations in future. All this and audience participation in the Felt-Tip Challenge, a display of 'awkward dancing', plus a fine set from Bozilla themselves leaves us counting the days until the 30th June.
