.3 7" {7.7-7 -_¢ For a band who border on the bloody ‘ '3 twee with such frequency, Kings of
Convenience are pretty serious. Comparisons to Simon and Garfunkel are only part of the equation as 2004’s Riot on an Empty Street suggests, as do Erland de's solo forays into minimal electro territory and his guesting, perhaps most famously, on Royksopp’s debut album. Simple and effecting, their acoustic songs have found a perfect home in the quasi-religious sounds of the Queen’s Hall. Come and adore.

REASONS TO GO SEE
IAN BROWN
1 He’s the voice of a generation OK. so It's; not prcxxeely today's generation imt. like MOrHSSC-‘y. Ian Brown if. out; ()i those llltlfSlCill ii'ia‘.ler'i(';k:; v‘xliost: Sl'ieer COHVICUOH and weight of personality makes; every/Hunt; hr: does; wonh a listen.
2 He’s in touch with his roots Guaranteed. Broonie won't play :i set almost entirely composed of Stone Roses tracks; here tar; he dirt recently at Clarernont lE.tl‘itlf,(,’€tl)t: Gardens in Surrey). Bu wait tor llll: roar that accompanrr—x; the mandatow blast of ‘l ool's, Goirl' anyv-rziiy.
3 Everyone loves him Expressed in print or I“ collat‘mration, NME. UNKLE and Noel Gallagher Silllg his; praises. That last one would be bad news it he was in Proud Mary. mind.
4 He’s a wizard, Harry Brown earneoed in the last Harry Potter move as a wizard who stirred lll‘; tea wrth a magic spoon. The triagv, pipe sadly remained Out of shot.
5 The Stone Roses will never reform Five mini~reasons: it was never abOLit the money: arguabi, the two most important members, hate each other: they might sound even a tiny bit like the Seahorses; Reni's own family probably don't even know where he is; this gig Will be the next best thing. Get over it. (David Pollock)
