    Another great gig at The Cluny - I took my 17 year old son for his first taste of Nick live and he had a great time. He got into Nick around Treasure Island and has been waiting to see him ever since - his favourite songs are By My Rocket Comes Fire, Juicy Fruit Girl and he loves the version of Shine On You Crazy Diamond on Youtube so he was well satisfied with the set list, which was as follows:

    Two way thing
    Glittering Eye/The Kilty stone
    The Magnificent G-Seven
    Blood song
    Juicy fruit girl
    This is the beginning
    Story of my heart
    Treasure island
    Shine on you crazy diamond (with string break)
    Simple
    Breathe
    Dorothy Parker
    The field of the cloth of gold
    By my rocket comes fire
    Lost in the snow
    For you

    Also a quickly aborted attempt at 'Bela Lugosi's dead' after a discussion about Goths (possibly after Juicy Fruit Girl, not sure). We were in The Cluny 2 which is a small basement room. Three new songs from Nix (his 9th album, hence N - ix). Bought it and listened to it on the way home. On first listen it sounds excellent - strong songs, great vocals and wonderful acoustic guitar, with as it says in the tray insert 'Nothing else. Nothing, Nada, Nix'. And all the better for it! I thought Nick seemed a bit down at the end, possibly because the turnout wasn't too great, but he did nearly two and a half hours and the audience was still left wanting more. We can't wait to see him on 22 November at ARC in Stockton!

    For some reason the pictures have uploaded on their sides - don't know why, they were upright before I sent them.
