Primal Scream

Was quite disappointed with the setlist to be honest.. too much of the mellow stuff which personally im not really into. They are a superb band and you never quite know what you are going to get with them. Shoot Speed/Kill Light was the highlight for me.
 
The middle part of the concert, 3-4 songs, was a bit boring, everything else was great. The encore with the over 10 minutes version of Higher THan the Sun was brilliant.
 
Former Primal Scream guitarist Robert Young dies

Former Primal Scream guitarist Robert “Throb” Young has died, the band’s publicist has confirmed. Though there has been no official statement from the band itself, former Scream collaborators and friends have Tweeted their sadness, and a poster who appears to be former Scream bassist Mani posted the news to a Primal Scream messageboard.

“Robert young , AKA the throb, passed away this weekend in hove. Truly devastating news,” posted “Mr Gary” on the Primal Scream Forum. Mani’s wife. Imelda Mountfield also tweeted the news: “Beyond sadness today , RIP to the one and only Throb , over to the other side brother , we’ll love you forever . Melds n mani xx xx.”
 
Absolutely thundercunt i'd say. Great rockstar, but a gowl.

They come across very badly in the statement, but I can see how maybe (and only maybe) they did see it as tough love.
It seems they also cut Denise Johnson out of songwriting credits and royalties so have form.
