26/03/2008 Morrissey, Beck and Bjork playing English field gigs
Asked to list my top 5 rockpop favourites who are not ravaged by age, I’d have to include Morrissey, Beck and Bjork. And all three are booked to play gigs in English fields, albeit rather posh fields, in the same July weekend this summer. Mozza and Beck headline the Friday (4 July) at the O2 Wireless Festival in London’s Hyde Park, while Bjork is booked for the 5 July one-day Knebworth Festival, 35 miles up the A1. Hmmm … difficult … seen Morrissey recently … could miss him … ; Beck isn’t touring theatres, by the looks of it, so would it be worth risking the weather, the drunken karaoke, the tedious chips-on-both-shoulders ex-colonials waving flags promoting their silly little countries? … probably not …; and better try booking Bjork on her Anglo tour instead. Three keynote younger poprockers for grown-ups. Pity about the venues. Open-air gigs aren’t about music - they’re for adolescents, of all ages. Gerry Smith
