THURSDAY 8
Glasgow
I Texas SFCC. Finnieston Quay. 287 7777. 6.30pm. £11 plus booking fee. No age restriction on this show. Hmmm. not sure about all this Texas rebirth stuff. At least the band are realistic about it. Their recent chart-busting material is more a realignment of what they've always done than the ‘radical departure'. they would say.
I Counting Crows and Cake Barrowland. Gallowgate. 552 4601. 7.30pm. SOLD OUT. And speaking of massively popular bores . . . Counting Crows play the earnest card too and are doubtless enjoyed by real people who like real music on real instruments. At least Cake are here to kick everyone up the backside with their Beck/Eels alternative. groovy covers of ‘1 Will Survive' and ‘Perhaps. Perhaps. Perhaps' and the immense single 'The Distance'. See review.
I T e Goldenhour, The Dawntreaders, Bosley, Baba Cool and Valley King Tut's Wah Wah Hut. St Vincent Street. 221 5279. 7.30pm. £3.50. And now the end is near. and so we face the final curtain . . . T/IU List/Bacardi
