THE FALL, EXETER PHOENIX 29/11/2010

A very chilly Monday November 29th found me at the bar in the Exeter Phoenix drinking chilly pints of Carlsberg in anticipation of another Fall gig.  I arrived at 7pm only to discover Mark E Smith and co wouldn't be on until 10pm !!

10pm arrived and as is the norm these days before a Fall gig, a Video DJ ponces about with archive footage of "iconic" rock stars filmed in concert against a giant projection screen - tonight was Black Sabbath with Ozzy Osbourne! This went on for about 20 minutes and was very boring.  The Fall came on about 10:20 and were finished by 11pm - short gig and the bass was far too loud in the mix.

Last year's Fall gig was far better and I had the great pleasure of meeting Mark who was a true gentleman and whose hospitality that evening threw some free cans of lager my way ;-)))
