Is that the first member of The Fall to have a full, bushy beard?

Mike Leigh. Not the film director, but his exact double (or thereabouts). 1977.

Both NYC gigs are now sold out, which doesn't completely surprise me, although I remember buying tickets a few days in advance the last couple times they came through.

saw part of the SF show last night, and left after about 4 songs. it just seemed way too weird to see four 20-somethings trying so hard to do everything right while one 50-something tried so hard to do everything wrong. just became such a complete caricature of everything the Fall once was. i was praying for a banana peel to come out of nowhere... would've at least made it a bit unpredictable

that's like the best description of the Fall ever.

Incredibly, Smith is still only a 40-something.
