I've bought tickets already and am crazy excited for the show. Seeing Brainiac headline the Garage in London on their last tour was one of the most unnerving and unforgettable shows I've ever seen.

Missing the best, most weird, most infernal, most brilliant Brainiac LP, Bonsai Superstar, which I believe the band would love to reissue but still belongs to the long-shuttered Grass Records.

Yeah there's a lot of Grass stuff still tied up in the ether, really sucks.

Still kicking myself for giving away my vinyl copy 20 or so years ago, as I'd """upgraded""" to a CD copy...

I got to interview the surviving members for this piece, 26 years after I stupidly turned down the chance to interview Brainiac for my fanzine because I figured I could catch them next time they were in London. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/jan/23/brainiac-on-life-after-tim-taylor-he-used-to-walk-offstage-with-bruises-in-the-shape-of-his-effects-pedals

BETTER BE GOOD (I have no doubt it is good).
