Back to Belly

Tanya with Mojave 3 at the Manchester University Student Union, Manchester, UK November 20, 1996

Stew's report:

Hi all.....I've just got back :)

Well it was worth the wait.....what a concert! :)

I'm so high.....it was so nice to see Tanya singing live again....she truly does have the voice of an angel. :)

I'd be guessing but I'd say there were probably about 400 people there....it must have been something like that. The support band were called 'Mojave 3' & did about 7 songs.

I'm not going to try and explain what each of Tanya's songs were like, I'll just say...some were quite heavy (more so than Belly) & some were...urm...well, just Tanya with an acoustic guitar:) I think the word I'm looking for is beautiful!

I managed to get Billy's play list from the back of the stage b4 I left, so here's what they played:

Acrobat
Clean
Spaghetti
Mysteries
These Days
Bury My Heart
Swoon
Bum
Clipped
Lantern
Human
------------
Restless
Car Song

When they got to Mysteries, Tanya announced that she didn't know what it was called really. So she got the crowd to vote for either 'The Mysteries Of The Unexplained' (as it was on the radio last night) or 'Little Mysteries', the latter won by a large majority....so I guess that's it's new name.

For an encore they played the beautiful 'Restless' & then 'Car Song'...which is a Madder Rose tune apparently!

Anyway, I think this post is obscenely long enough already..so I'm off to bed to dream of a certain angel with blonde hair! :)

See ya'....Stew
