2013 ; The year Psych strikes back
It all started with a lucid dream , indeed The Lucid Dream- a startling and challenging band that absolutely blow me away the first time - at the legendary [ Joy Division played there more times that anywhere else ] and all subsequent 6 times Ive been privileged to witness them this year...http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=the+lucid+dream+manchester&sm=1...there driving energy and sheer volume attack you and put some off - beware these Psych monsters are not for everyone ..However if you enjoy having your brain expanded then blown , join us at the Roadhouse in February where ,once again, TLD show Manchester how to Psych ....Not that it needs that with superb Psych explores and blues shouters - the Mighty Purple Heart Parade...some are from Oldham and all explore Outer Space- dancing grooves, sharp dueling guitars , heartfelt [ if too reverbered!] spacy vocals and a lead singer/shaman that excites like Iggy in his prime...http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=the+purple+heartmanchester&sm=3..Other classic Psych concerts have included the marvellous South American Holy drug couple - great lads all .. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=the+holy+drug+couple+manchester&sm=12 , the blissed out and super sweet Jacoo Gardner ..http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=jacco+gardner+manchester&sm=1 ...and last Thursday , the far out and blistering The Oscillation...http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=the+oscillationmanchester&sm=3...marvelous end to a stunning year .But with next year’s Liverpool and Manchester Psych festivals - the solar system is the limit...

Another day in Feb 07
"Another Day " was always a great lost track, and when I saw the wonderful video to the Gabriel /Bush never single I remembered why I kicked it...
Cant believe in was in the 70.s..both look fantastic ..and seems to suggest an under-lining frisson going on between them..I used to listen to this constantly,recorded from a hand held cassette from the TV..
changed days indeed
