Sunny Afternoon at the Harold Pinter Theatre

Sunny Afternoon
Harold Pinter Theatre, 6 November 2014
I don't usually write about the few West End shows I go to but since this one is rock-related - written by Ray Davies and all about the early days of The Kinks - I think it fits in here.

Ray Davies at the Royal Albert Hall


Ray Davies
Dead Flamingoes
Royal Albert Hall, 4 October 2012
I was surprised when Dead Flamingoes walked on stage, not only because I didn't know there was going to be a support act, but also because I recognised both members. Firstly, I had seen James Walbourne last year supporting Laura Cantrell and then Kami Thompson, the daughter of British folk legends Richard and Linda Thompson, I saw supporting Elvis Costello a couple of years back.
