Gig of the month - Mingus Big Band @ Middlesbrough Town Hall.
Another quiet one for me with a brock arm for the second half of the month.
Brotzmann at Toons Lit and Phil on 6th was wonderfully powerful but brief, the two support acts interesting but not really my thing.
Jasdeep Singh Degun at the Sage' Northern Rock on 19th was the best Indian gig Mrs T and I have seen that didn't have Zakir Hussain on stage, but we only did part two cos I'd just come out of hospital a few hours earlier.
Still trawling through piles and piles of Soul Albums. You'd think I'd have heard them all by now - you'd be surprised.
And of course I rudely omitted Josh Schofield at Lescala in Sheffield, which clearly made Mrs T's diary, which obviously over-rules mine.
All three gigs (3?) were equally good in their own, very different ways.
