Not only have I got a bad memory, I’ve also got a bad memory.

Fantastic. I thought so, I remember it being a crackers but excellent gig. Was that the concert where he rambled on about Princess Di’s death and everyone was baffled?

Ahoy @rolandbates.bsky.social did you play in the UK band with Hermeto in the late 90s at the Barbican?

The audience was totally nonplused & it took twice as long as he had a translator. Fantastic music though!

Blimey, he was extraordinary and quite baffling. I was telling someone else I saw him not long after Princess Di carked it and he completely misread the crowd and did this long speech about his sorrow for us, ‘our incredible loss’ and what a saint she was. 1/2

But as you say, he was ancient- 89 when he died!

Would that have made him quite an old father or is my maths terrible? (The latter is highly likely).

Dr Sarah Brand @sarahgailbrand.com · 1d

I was lucky enough to see him play flute - which was of course astonishing. I would like to have seen him play the small pig.

I was planning to see him in November but obviously not now. Saw him twice a few years ago. Outstanding and joyous.

I'll cook your meals, and if this makes you horny
Then I'll do these chores for the glory of love 🎶

Yeah I find her stuff highly forgettable, along with la Taytay’s.

Not liking pop music doesn’t make you a snob. Some of it is great, but there is a lot of toss that has nothing to do with music.

People get really worked up about her, especially around any criticism- it’s really odd.

Yes indeed :)

I’ve muted her full name since I got told off for not liking her music which was apparently due to my jealousy. 👀
