Dirty Pretty Things and Graham Coxon play special show

Supergrass and Athlete also at 'Pudstock' benefit gig

http://www.nme.com/news/dirty-pretty-things/25959

 

Dirty Pretty Things, Graham Coxon, Supergrass, and Athlete were among the bands who teamed-up for a special gig for homeless charity Crisis at London's Proud Gallery yesterday (January 20).

 

As previously reported, tickets to the Pudstock gig were hidden as special sixpences and were placed inside random Christmas Crisis Christmas puddings.

 

Kicking off in the early afternoon with sets from Four Day Hombre and Racing For Pink, event curator Pearl Lowe and representatives from Crisis took the stage to thank the audience for their support in "our fight to end homelessness".

 

Lowe was then joined by her partner and Supergrass drummer Danny Goffey, for a cover Elliot Smith song 'Between The Bars'.

 

They were followed by Lisa Moorish who, accompanied by Babyshambles' Drew McConnell, performed 'White Boy, Brown Girl' by her band Kill City.

 

The late-afternoon arrivals of Graham Coxon and Dirty Pretty Things then swelled the crowd.

 

Arriving quietly on stage and plucking out a selection of classically-inspired instrumentals to warm-up the audience, Coxon began his acoustic set with a rendition of Nina Simone's classic 'Black Is The Colour Of My True Love's Hair' before playing the likes of 'Are You Lonely' and 'In This House'.

 

He also paid tribute to the "suave" Ed Harcourt who played an earlier in the day - the early start being something singer-songwriter had joked about himself, telling the crowd: "This is the earliest gig I've ever played. I'm not used to daylight".

 

At 5 pm, Dirty Pretty Things took the stage causing the crowd, which including Ricky Gervais collaborator Stephen Merchant, to explode with energy.

 

Kick-starting their set with the likes of 'Deadwood' and 'Doctors And Dealers', the band steamrolled through a series of live favourites.

 

Introducing 'Gin & Milk', frontman Carl Barat - adorned with feather trilby - reminded the crowd of the chaos that cut short his band's set when they played the tiny gallery late last year.

 

"We didn't get to do this the last time," he explained. "This is for those of you who missed it."

 

Speaking to NME.COM after the set, Barat stressed he felt it was important for his band to be involved with Crisis.

 

"It's helping isn't it? It's helping the immediate present. It's not like we're doing it for publicity or anything," he declared. "We're supposed to be underground doing our album, [but] I've seen what a slippery slope it can be, so anything to help really."

 

The day then wound-up as Supergrass and Athlete played sets.

 

The Britpop veterans particularly shined, proving they still could hold a crowd hostage, with a searing performance that included 'Caught By The Fuzz' and 'Richard III'.

 

"I've sat and watched the whole thing, overwhelmed by the beautiful British talent there is," Supergrass frontman Gaz Coombes told the audience, before concluding the show with a currently untitled, brand new song they'd "never tried before".

 

The event was then wrapped-up with DJs, including Queens Of Noize, spinning sets into the night.

Drew was there?

It's good Supergrass are back :)

(speaking of which, how cute are the pics of Carl and his family on his mom's space, as well as his sisters? haha him on the drums in one of 'em... I was just looking this morning, awwww! :nice: )

 

So true! I loved those fanily ones, the three generation and all that. And that drums one is awesome! He seems to be so close to his family is even cuter :nice:

 

 

Coltish. Oh, it's so great. I was a bit skeptical at the beginning as well, esp after 'Music When The Lights...'. But she made it perfect, absolutely great. You'll love it, I'm sure. Damn bluesenough, she hooks us up whatever she writes!

I think that Steph is my consistant hero, yes. I think I'll add her to my heroes section of myspace :laugh4: I'm not joking! hahahaa :heart:

 

LMFAOOO :laugh3: :shy:

 

Dani...i'm so sorry to hear about what happened :\ ...that really sucks.

Gah, i've had years of that kind of shit, I have no luck with guys whatsoever, and I know exactly how it feels. That sinking feeling that you can literally feel in your chest when something like that happens...it's not nice at all. So *BIG BIG HUG* for you hun :(

And you should NEVER change yourself for a guy. Good for you for being clevere and realising that. I rarely get a looking from guys just 'cos I don't have big boobs and i'm only 5"2 tall. It's rediculous. :rolleyes:

But I believe in love, and that some day a guy will come along who won't care about that shit, he'll just love me for me. So i'm not gonna go changing how I am and chasing after men...fuck that shit. I've seen enough of my friends do it and get crushed.

 

Anywhooo....your drawing is beautiful so far - keep at it! :wink:

 

 

Ooh and btw, I dunno if you guys have seen 'shambles bulletin on myspace but i've sent a tiny review and a load of my photos. :)

Ok, I promise I'll read that fiction, then, but I'll do start to do it in a couple of days, 'cos I'll be on vacation - somehow - I'll finish all of my exams!!! :dance:

 

I think I see what you mean. ;) She's such a great writer that any pairing she purposes to write a fiction about, will seem to work perfectly. Even the weirdest ones - well, now I can't think of a weird pairing... erm... !

 

awww! such a good cause for playing a gig! :nice:

I hope that someone has uploaded on youtube the performance of Drew with Lisa!!

awwww Steph! *hugs back!* We really need a group hug smiley... :laugh4: I mean... I don't think I'm perfect by any means, I couldn't see myself as being desirable. But at the same time.... I don't want to be? Not for THAT, at least! I want someone to say "wow she loves music like me" or "wow she is just such a nice person" or "she's like me" or something like that, you know? Not a carbon copy of myself per se, just someone who gets it. Attraction's one thing... but... not everything by any means. So no. I'm not doing that. I'll find someone in NYC :smug: That's it! haha ;) It's just you put a lot of emotion into it, and when it occurs to you that nothing's going to come of it.... it's almost like an emotion deeper than sadness... like all I've wanted to do was cry so hard and get it out, but it's like crying wouldn't do it justice! :laugh4: :rolleyes:

 

ah well, enough on that from me ;)

 

thank you :)

 

 

I saw that, Steph! I was about to tell ya about it! whoo! Hope you get some stuff up heh

 

Tea... I guess he was.....! :stunned:

There's one here from the last one they did together for LMHR

 

It's good Supergrass are back :)

 

Indeed it is :smiley:

Aww it's just like that. And I've been in the exact same situation before, and it does suck, a lot. When you try so hard to be loved back, and you make yourself believe you are, it's aaaaaawful. But again, it'll come along, cause I do believe as well in love, so be sure you'll find the guy who loves you just for what you are, and you won't feel you're going to be loved only for what you're supposed to be anymore.

Group hug!! :nice:

*joins in group hug!* :nice:

 

Dani....the feeling will fade - it probably doesn't feel like it now, but it will with time. :kiss: And like you said, you'll find yourself a nice man in NYC :D

I completely agree with you! When you're pretending to be who you aren't in front of the guy you like, you can't feel good with yourself, nor even in the case that guy starts to show a special attention for you, 'cos you aren't yourself and you can't pretend all the time. And girls, believe in love :heart: 'cos it's one of the more exciting things that life can bring us. I do believe in love since I met my bf when I was 15 and I'm still going out with him.

 

*group hug* :kiss:

 

 

thanks for the link, Rachel!! :) great vid!!

It will happen. I feels it in me bones, I tell ya! :D :laugh4:

Is it weird that I still love this song as much as the first day I heard it and play it just as much as I did at the time? (which is an insane amount :lol: )

 

 

loveloveloveloveeeeeeeeeee :wacko:

agh damn forum won't let me edit my posts... but... aww *hugs Iris* yes! I do believe in it... I just have never had it reciprocated, so... kind of fucked up and depressing, but, I'm sure it'll happen someday... ;)

I can't edit my posts either - I liked the old design of the board more than the actual one.

 

Never? oh, well there's a beginning for everything. ;) Surely you'll find a nice guy, and even more if you start a new life in NYC, 'cos it'll be a place where you'll have new oportunities and the boys you'll meet will be more mature than the ones you already know there - hopefully- Anyway, how come you will move to NYC, for studying at the University over there?

Yeaaaap, never.... :\ Ah well.... It's ok, though. I'm more of a realistic, I always have been. I don't just jump into something for the hell of it, I just want something that would last and be real ;) I'm alright though, it'll happen.

 

And yeap, going to school there! I'm so psyched, 135 E. 12th Street! :dance: haha, oook, so now all you killer/rapists can come and get me in September! :laugh4: :laugh4:

Random, totally random, but who is it singing on 'Sister, sister'? My twisted troubled mind makes me believe it sounds exactly like John, but that could be definitely caused by the brain damage I got from doing that picspam. Besides, I'd find it extra strange if it was him. It doesn't sound like Carl or Peter though :thinking:

 

I loooove that song lately, heard it something like 20 times the past hour :wacko:

IT IS JOHN! I swear I mentioned how beautiful his voice sounds on it somewhere in here a week or two ago in here! It's fucking awsome innit?

 

 

 

*hugs Dani* I don't really have much else to say... I think that's a wise thing to do though, not just starting something that isn't really real. Trust me, it never ends well.

Hmmmm, I can't quite figure it out either Andy :confused:

 

Peter?

 

Hmmm...i'm really not sure! Weird.

 

Oh and I got your myspace comment :smiley: - sorry haven't replied yet! I'm gonna watch it tonight so i'll message you after! I think I know which bit your on about though!

IT IS JOHN!

 

 

It is?! Awwwwwwwwwww! :nice:
