More Video Goodies
Anyone with any sense will be out tonight watching Louis Philippe charming the pants off the Betsey, but for those of you with a good excuse (like, I dunno, you live on a different continent, or somesuch) here are some video treats from Sunday's glorious show(s):
UP FIRST: Mr Wright
NEXT: Amor de Dias:
If that's not enough for you, here's that same Amor de Dias song, as filmed and shared by friend of the Lounge, String Bean Jen, this time a little louder and in appropriately moody black and white:
Aren't you glad you were there? Or, don't you wish you'd been there?
Also, this may be my opportunity to recommend the novel Little Apple by the marvellous Leo Perutz - I reckon its title pops up in AdD's song.

Louis Philippe live
Louis Philippe, who turned in a wonderful set at the Lounge on Sunday (no one will ever forget Louis' rendering of I Just Wasn't Made For These Times), take their pop classicism to the Betsey Trotwood tomorrow, June 15.
This is a change of venue to previously advertised, and it's a smaller capacity, so try to book in advance.
A reminder for those who were there on Sunday, and a temptation to those who weren't to go on Wednesday, how especially intimate and uplifting the Louis Philippe live experience is:

Louis Philippe - whose live band numbers the Dias's Alasdair MacLean on guitar and backing vocals - is gracing the stage (if you haven't already, check out his latest record The Ocean Tango) and further support comes from another fine El alumnus, Mr Wright.
The Lounge opens its doors at 2pm. The first band is on at 3pm. It's free. We'll see you there.
