High Voltage show on Sky Arts 28/08

Not enough of Transatlantic shown last night  :cry:

[El_Mayonnaise]

Didn't see any Bigelf or a few of the other bands  

Did I just miss them or were they omitted?


Transatlantic were the highlight for me but still not enough

[Pedro]

They appear to have been cut-out for some reason. Maybe running time or maybe some problem with the footage (hard to imagine the latter).
I was disappointed with the Transatlantic stuff - it seemed well out of sync (sound versus pictures) to me.  :cry:
I also would have given more time to the higher-billed bands, also limiting every one (except maybe ELP) to just one song.

Currently on Sky Arts is ELP's Isle of Wight concert 1970 and a strange interview, I think it's the Hay Sessions, where someone gave Stephen Fry one word and he talked about it. As the words were alphabetical, M to almost Z, there may have been a part one, but I didn't catch the start,

It was a 2 parter.

Very interesting documentary on Roxy Music, you think of Brian Ferry as a bit of a sharp dressed smoothie but forget they were one of the first glam rock bands. Worth a watch

[Mikey]

Tonight, Peter Gabriel

coming up this week;
Led Zep
Van Halen
Moog

Did I hear that they've pulled the plug on High Voltage ( :lol: ), but we're all going to the Prog Stage in Kingston instead for 7 and 8 July?

[Pedro]

There will be no HV this year (cos of the Olympics they say...we'll see if it returns in 2013.

What's parking like for the Drome of Hippos?
