I am from Ayrshire, near to where Mike Scott grew up, and have seen the band many times before, but they still managed to amaze me and the rest of the almost capacity audience. Well over 2 hours on stage including 3 encores and the band would not have been allowed to leave had the lights not been turned on. The new stuff from BoL was excellent, and there were no weaknesses in the band at all. If you can manage to catch their UK tour I recommend you do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11905858.post-84242016132720959332007-02-17T10:27:00.000-05:002007-02-17T10:27:00.000-05:00Hey, David -- you're so right about The Waterboys....Hey, David -- you're so right about The Waterboys. Fisherman's Blues is just best of best. But check out the new song from "Book of Lightning" on Mike's mySpace page. What's there is lovely. And you'd also like Steve's band NoCrows, who've got a live cd now of their trad/wild gypsy jazz/Ennio Morricone/you name it. <BR/>Ah. The Waterboys. Have loved them since 1989, and can't wait to hear them in England this May.<BR/>Best AnnieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11905858.post-16344719013054977692007-02-07T09:16:00.000-05:002007-02-07T09:16:00.000-05:00No, we haven't done that yet.

I don't know how many artists would want to write about one of their own records, but it's certainly a concept we'd be open to.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07317377313622554323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11905858.post-5822688238892636082007-02-07T00:58:00.000-05:002007-02-07T00:58:00.000-05:00Have you ever had the creator of an album write a ...Have you ever had the creator of an album write a book about the album they created? What I'm saying is, I wonder if Mike Scott would be interested in writing a book about the Waterboys for the series.<br /><br />I'm a huge Waterboys fan.

If you don't, won't you regret it? And The Waterboys, why not? I'd buy it, and I've never heard them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
