Best concert this year has to be Fat Freddys Drop at the Ally Pally,
Awesome
Lucky you are. If only they would tour North America...
How is his cat?
I wondered if it was scat myself.

Not a dab of scat in sight. Just scads of dub, reggae and electronica. Chopped, seasoned, and baked to perfection.

Errr....Fat Freddy's Cat... Is this an obscure (sub)cultural reference these days?

I haven't a clue.

Fat Freddy was always forgetting to feed his cat. I remember one when he came back home and realised he had forgot to feed the little &%& and was worried what might have happened. Well nothing, no cat's do-dos - nuthin and Cat jumped up on Freddies lap and started purring. What a lovely cat you are said FF and at the same time a cat thought bubble was saying "You wait until you put your headphones on Fat Freddy". Eh Eh.
Anyone remember when the Freak Brothers won the lottery?
I got loads of their comics - brilliant stuff.
Bit different to Schrodinger's Cat.

He must have looked in the box.

It probably never needed feeding. And even if it did then the chances are we would never have found it.
This was one of the tracks played by Doug Graham at the Statement demo here in Montreal this year. A great introduction to Fat Freddy's music. Every track on the album (Based On A True Story) just g r o o v e s.
Jan-Erik I have to say that I really enjoyed that track -thanks!
The back story (from Doug) is that Steve Sells often uses it to test amps during development at Naim. At the Statement demo, the room lights dipped at every bass thump. Visceral it was.
Jazzanova and Paul Randolph, with Zara McFarlane as support at the village underground this last April was good. Great venue with great sound system .
