Any fans on here of the Waterboys?

I'm off to see them next week in Stockton and very much looking forward to it.

From memory the songs they played were:-

Bang the Drum 
Love & Death
Island man
Trumpets
Mist & Snow
Weary Land
Where the Action Is
This is the Sea
Girl Named Johnny
Ladbroke Grove
Dennis Hopper
Fisherman's Blues
The Pan Within
Medicine Bow
Whole of the Moon.

They were on a flight I was on a few weeks back.

Mike Scott was a right diva, only sat down for take-off and landing as he didn't want to sit next to someone because they smelt of cigarettes and it was bad for his voice LOL

Saw the Waterbody's live in York last night quality as ever.

Talking to a guy who had seen one of Mike's solo gigs in Leeds back in the day he said I always feel uneasy about meeting one of my hero's Scotts's reply was you're the hero coming along to see this sh*te. Big smile
