E-XTC Leeds 2022 - slight review

Post by theraven1979 »

Had an enjoyable evening watching EXTC last night in Leeds.

Seems to be a thing now for bands to perform with 1 original member (XSLF, From The Jam and now EXTC). Original band member Terry Chambers on drums absolutely killing it, the 3 other band members are connected with XTC in some way with the (now sadly defunct) TC&I project with Colin Moulding. Kudos to the other guys as well that made light work of some of Andy Partridge and Dave Gregory's guitar work and the chap on bass stopping at nothing (We even get Mayor Of Simpleton).

Check em out if you haven't already. Deffo worth your hard earned. 2 fairly sizeable sets of XTC classics spanning all albums. Highlights for me the stomping rendition of No Thugs In Our House, Dear God, Stupidly Happy, Earn Enough For Us

Interesting, sounds great value. I've never seen any XTC /related band live, although I do like their music so maybe one for the to do list, cheers

Realising they played most of Black Sea on Tuesday. They certainly played:-

Respectable Street
Generals & Majors
No Language In Our Lungs
Towers Of London
Sgt. Rock
