An Evening With Julian Cope - Belfast
May 06, 2006, 11:07

It was a great night. Good to see the few that made it across. Great to meet some of the lurkers who introduced themselves.
The show was in a marquee in the city centre, which was really bizarre.
It was a semi-acoustic set, with loads of Melotron and chunks of Doggen joining him on stage. I am still trying to work out how Doggen can make an accoustic guitar sound like that!!!!
Most people who spoke to me at the end of the night were impressed. Even some of the security heavies loved the entertainment factor, even if they didn't particularly enjoy the music.

A fantastic gig! A little tentative at first, but once into his stride Cope flew. Set list to come, but highlights were Out Of My Mind On Dope & Speed (set closer) and a fabulously bent version of Sunspots.
Great to be with amazon, aqk and 4W again. Brilliant to finally meet common era after all these years. Top bloke, folks.
Unexpected inclusion - Torpedo.
Right, off to the pub.

I've waited 14 bloody years to see him, and he certainly didn't disappoint.
Brilliant night.
Just in case anyone's interested, the following was his intended set list (I got it off him at the end):
Living In The Room They Found Saddam In
Autogeddon Blues
Pristeen
Double Vegetation
The Greatness And Perfection Of Love
Books
Promised Land
Soul Desert
Cut My Friend Down
Las Vegas Basement
Conspiracist Blues
I'm Your Daddy
Upwards At 45 Degrees

I can't even bemoan the lack of a '45 Degrees' because the rest was so great!

It was absolutely awesome. The best I've seen him play semi-solo for ages.
For some strange reason, I can't remember him doing half of those songs.
I hope I didn't spoil it for anybody.
