Why isn’t it like it was 10 years ago? (UPDATED FOR TIM)

Posted on by admin

 Due to an incredible laxness brought on by unseasonable lethargy caused by unseasonable cold and rain, followed by unseasonable lethargy due to seasonal heat I’m really late getting this posted up, July should follow soon…

Henry finished the show with an uncharacteristic set, in Shitmat terms of  superfast breaks and comedy gabba, but if you’d been paying attention to his blog you would have seen the mighty Mash Hits project taking shape (http://www.shitmat.co.uk/category/mashhits/) and you would have known that The Spirity of Gravity was hosting the only live performance of it…

We’ve been trying to link up with Tim Didymus for well over two years and so we were really happy to host this performance of the automated Glass Armonica and synth setup, it was truly something special.

And starting the evening off with a set of location based puns worthy of Flann O’Brien (I’m reading “The Third Policeman” to my kids at t bedtime) ZPG had an excellent scattergun of beats and noises reaching through space and time in a most enjoyable manner.

Henry also introduced the idea of WWWebwalking, which he was pretty good at, and we had a go here:

For various reasons The Green Door Store didn’t happen for us in May, luckily (very as it turned out in the end) Sara Jane found room for us and we had a magical evening At The Coach House, with

Hmm Blogspot, your new editor is confusing me, but I don’t care cos I’m coasting on the joy of another really good Spirit of Gravity show. Our first at The Green Door Store.

Embla Quickbeam was first on the floor, well just above the floor, in real life.

 
 Andy Wheddon was first on his pins, and the first Karaoke machine.

Fallow were the first to get a skull and dual laptops going

And June Deer just did it barefoot…

October: where did you go?

Tony Rimbaud reminded me that The Sogblog is missing everything from the October show, there are good reasons for this. Two of them – 1) my recorder went bleurgh and so I have no audio of the night and 2) my video of the event is all very dark.

So here is some very dark video of Ashtray Navigations, Hakarl, Ultrahumanitarian and Noteherder & McCloud. For some reason Youtube only wanted me to display Clive and Gus’ version of Ryoanji last night, but it seems to be better now.
