31.12.17 14:58 I forgot to talk about new music this year because almost all my "new" music was by old fogeys making triumphant returns with 2017 releases - Black Grape, Sparks, OMD, Depeche Mode, friggin' Blancmange get outta here - locally, I really liked The Awful Truth's release but they had an album release concert in January and then WE NEVER HEARD FROM THEM AGAIN. There was more Nightosaur. Allison got me into Austra and not as much into Xiu Xiu. Kat got me into The Contortionist and White Moth Black Butterfly. Kris introduced me into St. Vincent...alas, not literally. I've forgotten so much already, I'm sure - want to compile my list of concerts a la Danny but that may take longer than I would care to take. Anyway, new music didn't go anywhere, I'm happy to report. Still haven't really listened to Kraftwerk "in 3D" and don't know what I'm saving it for. Oh, yeah... that UNKLE album.
