yesterday i saw Vampire Weekend at Barrowlands, up here in Glasgow.
I though to myself that the venue, in my opinion, is bigger than the act.
They should have played a smaller venue.
and Barrowlands only hold 1900 people!
So where should Mr Vek play?
Big venues or Small venues? |

I saw him in a tiny venue in Southampton and it has, to this day, been one of my favourite gigs.
Having said that. I also saw him at a festival or two and he worked really well there.
I'd have to say that I think TV can fill almost any size venue. He seems to adapt his essence to fill the void. If any of that makes sense and doesn't sound ridiculous. _________________

| At the moment it would be nice to see him play ANYWHERE but small seems to suit him nicely. I saw him play the Rescue Rooms in Nottingham and it was electric! |

Yes, saw him play 2 shows in Ireland. One at a festival in a big tent. There was not many there from what I remember but he was brilliant. Then I saw him play Whelans in Dublin which is definitely in my top 5 gigs of all time. I have fond memories of Music Television live. Apocalyptic rave!
Glad his live shows were so memorable as I am loosing hope that I will ever get to see him play again! Awell. I rarely log in here now as it's seemingly dead and fans seems to have abandoned this. Was there any updates given? |

We got some half-news that he had moved house and was having trouble sorting things out with his current label. And also that he was definately working on new material. That was a while ago though. Who knows. A little part of me still believes he will return with one of the greatest albums of all time, but that part is slowly dying out year by year. _________________
