Once the power returned, we had two performances of the same song as a thanks. 💜 vibrating bass drum beats and solid thumps of colour, so intense. My Bloody Valentine, Manchester.

Total organised noise annihilation but look at everyone's happy faces. 💜 My Bloody Valentine, Manchester.

The power on stage went... music stopped for 15 minutes while new cables etc. put in place. Plectrums were thrown... MBV Manchester.

I've no idea how this guitar sound was achieved. 💜 My Bloody Valentine, Aviva Manchester.

Listen to that golden sound, great room. MBV at Aviva Manchester.

My favourite My Bloody Valentine song, at Aviva Manchester. Right up front this time but it didn't feel oversold at all. I used to play this track weekly on my radio program when it was first released. 🥲

Not forgetting Maria Somerville, who was immense opening for MBV. Listen to how quiet, respectful the audience is! An Irish music fan in the queue behind me at the merch pop up recommended I catch her set; I replied I already loved her live and was pleased to see her in the immensity of a stadium!

Kev My Bloody Valentine spent time in front of his amp wall, creating those gorgeous amp sound tones. 5th person onstage with 3rd guitar and keys. The smoke machine was on overdrive (makes photography difficult). Swans like intensity of physical sound but never strident or overdriven. Pure pleasure.

My Bloody Valentine. Running out of words. Can't wait to see them Monday.

Like shadowy figures on a shadowy stage. The audience was as much the show as the band.
November 23, 2025 at 8:54 AM
Helicopter guitars. My Bloody Valentine.

My Bloody Valentine, Dublin.

My Bloody Valentine. Just speechless.

So much is happening this week. But yes I'm in Dublin. 💚

Cabaret Voltaire ruled my world in the 80s with their perfect intersection of funk and tech. Gorilla Manchester.

An ode to Sheffield, unreleased material I think they said. Cabaret Voltaire in Manchester.
November 19, 2025 at 6:22 PM
Cabaret Voltaire in Manchester...
November 19, 2025 at 6:21 PM
Everything electro started with Cabaret Voltaire... last night at Gorilla Manchester.
November 19, 2025 at 5:58 PM
Cabaret Voltaire tonight... these next 7 days are jam packed with gigs.

This is a photo of me in around 1989, selling merch for one of our own gigs at One Step Beyond in Santa Clara. That band Autumn Cathedral was a predecessor to Ozean...

Our very serious faces contemplating the serious task ahead (also we were exceedingly rained on).
November 16, 2025 at 8:02 PM
Killer lights and loads of very moody sounds, we enjoyed it!
