Bury 5/5/13

CP & MX bid closed the european tour with another fine set last night. No big surprises in the setlist, just the same old, big beautiful with lots of guitar duels! Great to see Homemade Blood, shame we didn't see Carsten for the encore. Thanks to all for another great tour, it's always a joy to see this band on stage, good luck with the final leg of the tour, I hope we see you again soon. NP

Hmmm, a few bum notes here. Bid farewell? Big, beautiful noise? You get the picture. NP

Great gig at Bury - loved Summertime Thing, perhaps because we had the first signs of summer that day but also the brilliant guitar work. I think Chuck said that Wilko Johnson was the best rhythm guitarist that Britain produced - he must listen to the wonderful, late Mick Green of the Pirates. Wilko copied his every move but was never quite as good!

Excellent news. I'm going to celebrate by wearing my Panic T shirt in St Helena: I bet there's no one else here with one....

Dublin - The Workman’s Club

Chuck and band played a blistering set to a small (50-60 people) but enthusiastic crowd tonight at the Workman's Club in Dublin. Guitars were blazing and the banter was funny as usual. Songs played (that I remember were): Automatic Blues, Doubter Out of Jesus, Temple Beautiful, Willie Mays is Up at Bat, The Left Hand & The Right Hand, Who Shot John, White Night, Big City, Sonny Liston's Blues, You Did, Summertime Thing, All is Forgiven, Sorrow and a Flamin' Groovies number.

Birmingham - Hare & Hounds

What a night! Chuck hasn't been to Birmingham for a while and what a return it was. A blistering performance to the packed venue. Jaws kinda dropped at first when a technical issue with Chuck's amp on the opening song looked grim but it was soon resolved thankfully. It's tough yet again to single out individual songs when they were all so damn good.'Sonny Liston's Blues' was a total wow!...as was a welcome return for 'Homemade Blood' an...'You Did' was extra special for me personally as Chuck called me up on stage to sing backing as he plugged my own musical exploits. It was real cool to have Chuck back in Birmingham again. Its been a long time since those 'Creatures of habit' tours hit the likes of the The Breedon Bar, The Foundry and that fucktastic acoustic slot at Virgin Records the once in 93'. As Chuck often signs off via blogs etc "Onwards"...Glasgow you're in for a real treat! *Just like to mention 'The Dreaming Spires' who supported Chuck at Notts and last night. They've been cool. Their opening performance of their 'Strength of Strings' song last night was excellento.

Hare & Hounded…

...bit disappointed with the Brum crowd after such a long wait for The Mission Express to come calling again. Chuck sweated buckets & battled the equipment but there was nowhere near enough love in the room, although these frustrations did seem to pull out a harder, louder performance (complete with heavy metal teaser riffs) which was right up my street. Still worth a million times the admission price for Homemade Blood & the amazing encore medley. All you need is (solid) gold.

Chuck’s Folder taken from Southampton gig..

In the heat of the moment maybe you just decided to grab a little extra something as a fan. The thing is though its really important to Chuck and he really needs it back. In Chuck's own words there won't be any questions asked if you get it back to him. If your reading this do the right thing eh? Go to chuckprophetofficial on facebook for further details

The Rescue Rooms - Notts

The pistol whipping guitar whizz from Frisco can hold an audience in the palm of his hand by rambling on about anything! The story that gets told as the intro to 'You Did' is fucking hilarious for example. However, beneath all the witty dialogue Chuck has come to show England yet again how it all goes down 'Frisco Style'. The Mission Express were on their usual excellent form with cool drumming by the new member of the gang tboot! I guess James was thinking "Fu*k!" as 'Storm across the Sea' kicked off and realised his 'Slide' was nowhere to be seen on stage. Aaah well, I'm sure Ry Cooder must have done that at some point ;) Some of my personal favorites of the night were 'Doubter out of Jesus' 'Castro Halloween' 'All is Forgiven' (Stephie on fine form - I reckon they should fit 'So Do I' in too - my personal favorite off her really great 'Cry Tomorrow' Record)'Shake some Action''You Did' 'Tulane' *Funny you mentioned 'The Steve Gibbons Band' Chuck ...Not many will have to look him up on the Net at Birmingham tonight the guy is like a legend there! ;) In fact I saw him once doing his 'Dylan Project Tour'..he sounded just like Dylan himself vocally. I'm off to 'The Hare & Hounds' as well tonight as Chuck and the Express enter my neighbourhood for the first time for many a year. Lets make them welcome people ;)
