Saw them in Aberdeen a couple of years ago and I really enjoyed the gig. Not the sort of thing I would normally have chosen but I'm really glad I did.

I still don't really understand what Leafcutter John does, but the whole band works really well.

Had a lesson with the geezer on the right on Monday afternoon, didn't get onto the balloon parts though,

Interesting.
It reminds me of Sun Ra and his Solar Myth Arkestra, with George Adams.

Or am I missing the point?

How did I miss this post? Love their song "Snow" featuring a bass clarinet

Hated this - where's the music?

 

[Phil Edwards]

You really need to listen to an album or two as their music varies quite a lot. I love some tunes, don't like others, quite a mixed bag.

He's a good teacher though, we have plenty of fun... but we don't play this !
