Stip was a couple of rows behind me in Brooklyn once.

Possibly the other guy runs this place too I dunno. But we were lucky to have a hug.
No books were involved. At that point.

25th November 2006 - Subiaco Oval Perth WA
-Experience highlight: Being 6 rows back in front of Mike as he ripped into Go as the E was just kicking in as my first ever live PJ experience. Additional - as I was "Woo-Woo"ing along with everyone else as the outro to Black meandered along having my best mate turn to me and tell me I sound like a fucking dove.
-Setlist highlight: Go to open, RVM to close the main set.

I’ve got interstellar overdrive a couple of times.
I’d be happy for them to play that every time before Corduroy.

It’s not much like the original at all but I love what they do with it. They’re automatically in the zone and channelling the good stuff with that one. Short as it is. It’s a perfect intro to corduroy.

Was lucky to get a ticket for that show in Shepherd’s Bush empire that time. tiny enough theatre in London and they played it. It never sounded better.

That bootleg is out there

Jim James does look like he’d be stinky.
