Metamatic Forums John Foxx John Foxx and Louis Gordon NEW BLOG - METAMATIC SHOWS 2007

Who's the thin bloke next to the guy from South Park?
Cheers

yay, John Foxx in Brighton!

Hmmm, i don't really need my ICA ticket now, though!

What!!!

Tis a different kind of event altogether....

I take 'possibly for the last time' as referring to this tour being the last chance to see John perform the whole of the Metamatic album in full. I will be surprised if it means anything other than that.

Yes, 'possibly for the last time' was said in the context of THIS tour, I think if John planned to stop touring he would say so clearly.

But he's playing the same set at both gigs!

nope ... i don't think so , if u read the following info carefully again , which clearly states that the ica show is indeed a SPECIAL show ! ;-)

Saturday the 29th of September, 2007 : The ICA (Institute of Contemporary Arts), London
Address : The Mall, London SW1Y 5AH
Full details of how to get to The ICA are available on their website

This is going to be a very special John Foxx event - set to last SEVERAL HOURS! Further details will follow shortly, but I can confirm that both Metamatic and Tiny Colour Movies will be performed in their entirety during the event.

cheers ! :-)

Oh fair enough - I already say him do Tiny Colour Movies in Brighton though!

I am also a bit smarting from buying two sets of OMD tickets, once to see them in the Hammersmith Odeon last month doing a "special" gig where they'd play "all of the Architecture & Morality" album,
then last week in brighton doing a "Best of" set...
...and they played the exact same set, song for song, in both of them!
Not going through that again!

i think that u won't in this case ! ;-)

btw : o.m.d. played a different set list ... but ONLY @ certain gigs like in athens , berlin , hannover , leipzig , munich , mainz & most likely also in vienna & the other festival dates this month too , but NOT during their european tour in may & the u.k. tour in june !
but the standard set list was better than the "special" set list , if u ask me , because i prefer to hear "sealand" , "georgia" & "the new stone age" anytime over "dreaming" & "dream of me" instead ! ;-)

With his recent work getting received that well i doubt it will be a total stop...
Still don't know which show i will attend :rolleyes:
September...November...or both

greetings,
