David Devant

An press release about David Devant the Magician, not to be confused with old fave of mine David Devant the band... Well, maybe it's OK to confuse them as one is named after the other.English Heritage plaque to conjurer David Devant to be unveiled at...

Nirvana @ Birmingham Hummingbird

Time for another bit of back-blogging... this day in 1991 I was at Birmingham Hummingbird to see Nirvana... I was just inspired to add this by stumbling across NirvanaGuide.com, which has the following details for the gig:Setlist:Drain YouAneurysmFlo...

A post on this message board, seemingly by Vessel himself says David Devant might be playing Camberwell Crypt today... here's hoping! I missed the last one because it clashed with a Darkness gig I think...More David Devant and his Spirit Wife at deva...

David Devant cancelled

Well, anyway, it seems to be not going ahead, it was only a rumour anyway, what a shame.

Keira Knightly update

Keira Knightley is not just a pretty face and a flat chest, she has things to say! In the latest issue of Vanity Fair she says:* She rarely gets asked on dates* She thinks she disappoints people by not being pretty enough* She doesn't know much about...

Missive from David Devant, the band obviously:The new David Devant & His Spirit Wife single is here. Please visit the following link, hear a sample, take careful note of the release date, and then forward this email to everyone in your address book.....

David Devant and his Spirit Wife

Well the gig was fantastic I'm very glad to report, a homecoming to Dingwalls (now called Lock 17 for some reason), the launchplace of their first album, was somehow appropriate. The place was packed, perhaps partly because of an enormous free guest...

More David Devant

From groups.yahoo.com/group/devant and probably also devant.info:The band have confirmed their next gig - it will be an arty fandango of fun on Friday May 7th at Tate Britain, the inspiration for 'Pimlico'. They will be playing with a band called Art...

Monkey Caravans

"That show you wanted to watch is on, what's it called, Monkey Caravans?"So, I found Guerilla Homes at last, it's on BBC 3, no wonder I couldn't find it in the schedules... quite an interesting show, it's not all about tramps living in shanty towns u...

Don't forget, he is a lizard...Also don't forget, David Devant and his Spirit Wife LIVE at Islington Academy on Wednesday night... it will be SMART! Hmm, I might have some free tickets for this, drop me a line if you fancy it. But better be quick......

BACON

Really got to remember this time, I DO NOT LIKE THE ANGELIC in Islington... It seems nice enough as a pub, but each time I've been there smy pint's been a bit funny, and I've had to return it... now this time they had no draught beers at all (have th...

Expose Club

Looking for details of the Expose Club, Canterbury... Radiohead played there, if the many Radiohead gigography sites are to be trusted, but I suspect that one mistake in any of them would have been copied across the whole lot...The date in question i...

something made your message vanish Mick

Only gig I know for sure is the one I was at

Guessing you've seen this and that's how you ended up here, I was at 27/11/91 Birmingham Hummingbird when they supported Nirvana.Nice pictures BTW, did you see that "post catatonic" Banksy art actually in the museum?...

I used to use avantgo, but don't use anything for rss on the ipaq now

There's a google rss reader, use your gmail username and password - let me know if you don't have one and I can send you an invite.

billie piper (evans)

Alone, looking scruffy in jeans and wearing a denim hat, buying a pregnancy test in boots in belsize park, was very impatient while waiting in queue and left quickly after her purchase

Ronnie O'Sullivan

The Wildman of snooker was having a huge old party by the looks of things in the Russian Tea Rooms next to our office... It's not normally busy like that in the afternoons, apart from Channelfly employees sneaking in there for job interviews...

Vanna Bonta

Picking up pumpkins and sitting with a blue gray Chowster dog while some people took pictures.

Ronnie `The Rocket' O'Sullivan

Thursday lunchtime. Ronnie was having a stroll with his veh tasty missus. In jovial mood and relaxed dress... His recent crash and burn at the crucible obviously not weighing too heavy on his cockney shoulders.

Jamie Theakston, Jodie Kidd and Vanessa Feltz

Lagering it up with Natasha Kinski, Molly Sims and Lady Victoria Hervey at yet another free bash.....don't they get sick of it?

Evans and Piper

I walked right past them just off Notting Hill Gate on my way to the over-rated Portobello Market. Not an exciting spot. sorry.

Noel Sullivan

He was in O'Neals on Carnaby Street with one of the buckfield twins (not sure if it is actually Buckfield, is that the surname of the girl that Dec of Ant and Dec fame is going out with?!). I think they were just talking shop, it didn't look like th...

Vanessa Feltz

Ok, i know i've spied her before, but saw her last night at the Hip Hop Immortals II launch party at Proud Galleries...what's all that about? Looking short and like a leathery hand bag with awful hair extensions.

Vanessa Feltz

Last Thursday I think it was, she was outside my office sunbathing, clothed thankfully but she did have her dress hitched up...eek. She had blood red nail varnish on her toes.

Chris Evans

He looked his trade mark scruffy, but rather slim. Sat with his arms stretched at the back of the seat tapping his fingers.

Vanessa Feltz

Just a minute ago getting on the back of a motorbike wearing a leather jacket, with her FAT ARSE spilling over the seat..gross.

Chris Evans

The ginger whinger is NO LONGER GINGER! He was in the garden of The Pembroke last night, and he has blong hair now, and a very pink face.He was there with chums of Johnny Vegas, two people I recognised from Who's Ready For Ice Cream it looked like it...

Michael Van Straten

He's in Antimony, next door to my office right now. For an author of diet books he's a big fellow... Why couldn't Kim Wilde have been with him?

David Devant And His Spirit Wife

This actually might not have been the LEGENDARY album launch do, found a pass with a date on it so guessing it was earlier this year...

David Devant And His Spirit Wife

This band were so good, too good for this world I think

Essential Festival

Super Furry Animals, Kula Shaker, Menswear, Echobelly, Marion, Chumbawamba, Bis and more... missed David Devant, but I did trek there with 16 people in my bus....

Phoenix Festival

I clearly remember David Devant and Holy Barbarians, David Bowie, Sex Pistols and Foo Fighters too I think, must have seen a lot more though...

Suicidal Tendencies

I drove my van into London for this gig, I almost never did this... ST played their encore first, and part of the gig from the top of a step ladder.

Tad

First time they visited WITHOUT Nirvana in tow, just my luck...

Iron Maiden

Was on a training course in Hounslow, turned up too late for support band Wolfsbane, and anyway we had no tickets, but got given some by someone outside, I am sure it was Tommy Vance. Apparently we saw Jonathon King there too.

David Devant and his Spirit Wife

I bootlegged this gig, the audio's complete with a trip to the toilet part way through...

David Devant and his Spirit Wife

My favourite band of the time, one of my few visits to Kent "before".

David Devant and his Spirit Wife

Before I lived in New Cross, didn't really know where it was. We thought we could get a tube there (it was not running) and walked back to Waterloo after...

Caravan

David Devant and his Spirit Wife

Think the year is wrong on this one...

David Devant and his Spirit Wife

A great gig, just round the corner from where I was living. Cheap booze and accompanying art exhibition.

David Devant and his Spirit Wife

Well two of them anyway, perhaps playing as Carfax at Uncle Bob's Wedding Reception.
