Poor 'Ol Big Dave Sylvian, he does come in for a bit of a bashing these days. I'm brave enough to stand up for some of his stuff, parts of 'Gone To Earth' are magical, as is that 'Alchemy for a swiss cheese' tape thing he did. However, i saw 'im at the Albert Hall a few years back with Fripp & what an odious fucken night out that was. Lots of pony tails onstage, clasped hands & bowing. Fell asleep & missed second half of it. 25 quid & Fripp sat in the dark all night. Much like me. Only he didn't give ME 25 quid for the pleasure.
On second thoughts, Sylvians a c**t. Burn it all!!!!
