I love 'em - saw them supporting/blowing away Beth Orton in the late 90's and just a few years ago when the Time Machine best-of came out.

That was at the old Barfly, my co-gigging friend made a comment that they would probably be in the Irish pub on the corner in the same way that Mark E Smith often was...Amused to almost walk into them as they had a pint or two and watched a football match - not coming on to play until it was over. They seemed fairly pissed, but played brilliantly with lots of chestnuts from Waterpistol et al, as well as stuff like 'I Know You Well.' The encore was a song from The Magical World of the Strands...a shame the reformed Pale Fountains didn't play more.

Shack, like the High Llamas, are a band who do seem quite retro, but do it so well in a way that Oasis pilfering riffs etc don't. I always thought Waterpistol was the album that everyone said 'The Stone Roses' and 'The LA's was...

Hope they play somewhere round these parts...
