I’m very tired this morning having risen early after a late night out. I am hoping that I’ll be able to have a nana nap sometime today.
Last night we went to see Angry Old Men at Milton Theatre. They called it a Rockumentary one of several dedicated to reproducing the work of musicians both alive and dead. The four-piece Australian outfit we saw consisted of a Bass Guitarist, a Rhythm Guitarist, a Lead Guitarist and a Keyboard player who were all accomplished players.
Milton Theatre is an excellent venue being small and having great acoustics. The volunteers who take the time to ensure the theatre continues to run do a fantastic job keeping the patrons happy.
I knew all of the artists the band covered and I knew most but not all of the songs. Some of the musicians they featured were Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Willie Nelson, Nick Cave, Tom Petty and many more. Apart from the music, there was a continuous video playing in the background which showed some snippets of information about the artist’s life. One musician I’d like to find out more about is Leonard Cohen. I don’t know much about the man or his music. I really enjoyed our night even though this morning I am very tired.
I’ll leave you with Neil Young.
