FISH @ TAVISTOCK WHARF 4/12/10

Fish played the Tavistock Wharf on Saturday which was the opening night of the December Fishheads tour which sees Fish in "acoustic" mode accompanied by journeyman guitarist extraordinaire Frank Usher and keyboard maestro Foss Patterson.

I caught the Fishheads tour back in August this year at The Orange Box in Yeovil and was knocked out by the Fish back catalogue reworked in an acoustic setting and Tavistock raised the game further with classic Marillion numbers being aired in the shape of "Punch and Judy", "Incubus" and encore "Fugazi" which brought the house down !!

It was also great to hear the brilliant probably underrated "Suits" album getting some songs injected into the set by way of "Somebody Special" and "Jumpsuit City"

Overall this was a stunning gig and quite rightly Fish announced at the end of the show to the audience "Tell them I'm back!"

Post show found me back at my hotel where a certain fellow resident happened to be the Fishmeister himself and a wee few drinks were subsequently consumed ;-))
