The drums is the only instrument I kind of "get" even without looking at the drummer, despite not playing them so it'll be inevitable. From what I've seen and heard he seems to avoid flashiness and therefore he avoids mistakes too. I think I'll have a great time too, and I'm almost certain the crowd is going to be loud, which usually has an effect on the band's performance. I'm expecting quite a few hipster kids in their 20s. One month to go now...

Hi, does anybody know what time they'll be on (and more importantly what time they'll finish) so I can see if I can get a train home or will need a hotel?

Amazing gig in Paris yesterday evening ! I had not seen the Ozrics live since (disapointing) Roadburn Festival 2006 and they seem to have found again a real 'band' vibe...thumbs up to the extremely tight bass/drums section, really impressive :-) Too bad the gig was too short (they apparently had some problems on the road, then beginning to play too llate to deal with the f***ing parisian curfew...) Anyway, for those like me, who had kind of lost faith or interest in the Ozrics these past years, go see them live now you won't be disapointed !!!!
PS: The setlist was perfect: OI, Sniffing Dog, Sultana, Pixel Dream and a few nice ones from TOTS...I was waiting for Xingu, but no time left :-(
Thanx a lot Ed...you changed my world in 1998 when I first saw you & the guys live...and yesterday, I remembered why !

Interesting... They haven't played Pixel Dream for ages. Hopefully we'll get Sniffing Dog here too. Paul was with the rest of them, right jpeg?

As far as I know they only did the extended Pixel Dream with the ambient jam on the 2000 tour. Yeah starting to get more excited. Looking forward to Sniffing Dog and this band's version of Oakum. And of course the three new tunes.

No Sploosh...but you have to listen the middle section of Epiphlioy, absolutely brilliant played live (compliments to Brandi...) !

Sploosh is great for sure but I've heard it at almost every gig I've been to. I don't mind its absence at all. The Throbbe is similar but at least it changes form every few years and I like the version they've been playing in the last decade or so more than the previous ones.
On a side note this is going to be the Ozrics gig with the most people I know, even more so than late 90s-early 00s.

Recently, I came across Ozric Tentacles while listening to Pandora Radio - and immediately, I got hooked on this far-out music. The style hits me, and I get it's mesmerizing vibe, like nothing I've eve heard before. Can't get it out of my head playing ming.. (you know the feeling, right?)
I live in So Cal. (U.S.) and wondering if there are any up coming gigs in the States..

Can not be long now Yiannis...you must be so looking forward to gig I had a chat over coffee with one of my friends -proper fan rather than curious- who's going to the gig yesterday morning and I'm getting more excited as the gig is drawing nearer. The YT videos I posted on the videos thread are helping too. Ed seems to be enjoying himself on stage quite a bit as well, which is always a bonus on many levels.

I got notice that my ticket was sent out today so I hope when I arrive from work that my ticket be awaiting. I too can not wait for gig and I hope to see many my Ozric friends at Islington especially Ian,Dominic and Dominic yes there are two. MY understanding that Pete will not be at this gig. I am hopeful I shall meet Ed (Ozric fan) and his wife, Greg also . Hope to see the band before they perform aswell. I know I'll get a wave from Balazs as I always do.

I am so disappointed that I will not be going To the Netherlands as it is such a great country and I've always had great times there. Money is the real problem and I would have to travel on my own but I'm sure that there will be many fans I know going, I hope you all have a great time
