A full walk->in cupboard. This was the first of Jonatha's UK dates I've missed and was somewhat gutted. She's doing three at the 12 Bar, incidentally, and I think it would be a shame if people only show up for the headline one. You can book tickets now and I've booked for all three. :) She's also doing easter Monday at The Bedford in Balham, according to the interview she did on Radio London, and when I spoke to her, she said she was hoping to do some band dates in April. I really can't recommend her highly enough live - definitely better than on record. I missed last night because I saw K T Tunstall play an in-store at HMV Oxford Street. I'm pretty sure a lot of Ecto people would enjoy her. She was solo and doing the looping thing that Howie Day does when he's solo, which was very enjoyable. Black Horse & The Cherry Tree (the current single) was particularly good when done this way, it's almost unfortunate that she's touring with a full band. She was really good with the fans, too. Then it was on to Shepherd's Bush where I saw Nerina Pallot. Some of you might have heard Dear Frustrated Superstar, her first album. Her second, "Fires" is now scheduled for April, and her site is up at www.nerinapallot.com where there are some amusing stories from her time on a major label, along with some not-really-good-enough-quality sound samples. I also spoke to Amity, the owner of Ginglik, the venue where Nerina was playing about the possibility of her booking Jonatha to play there - she said she'd look into it, so maybe one more Jonatha gig in March for us to look forward to. :) Mike - ----------------------------------------- Email sent from www.ntlworld.com virus-checked by McAfee visit www.ntlworld.com/security for more information ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V11 #55 **************************
