A short visit to England last November enabled me to catch two concerts by The Necks on successive evenings, the first at Strange Brew in Bristol and the second at Kings Place in London. Since the one thing everyone knows about The Necks is that no two of their concerts are alike I had no problem with seeing them twice in a row, and indeed the two evenings were markedly different experiences. It had been over thirty years since I’d last been to a concert in Bristol, that one being Peter Hammill in 1992, so it was a pleasure to spend some time in that vibrant and culturally diverse city.
