K and I have both taken a day off today to drive up to Bristol to see Neko Case at the Bristol Academy. She has the most amazing voice. Her musical style is usually lumped in with "alt country", but it's a bit darker, a bit more noir-ish than your standard "alt country" acts. Listen to a bit of her music HERE or watch some clips of her live performances HERE. The last concert we saw in the US before moving to Belgium was Neko Case at The Zoo in Portland. We're really looking forward to seeing her perform live again.
One of my friends from UEA is coming with us. We'll be leaving shortly. It's only a 2 hour drive, but we're heading up early so we can go to the IKEA in Bristol. We need a few "bits and bobs" for the apartment, but more importantly, we need to stock up on some Swedish food. Namely, Kalle's caviar, herring, and Gevalia coffee. And we'll probably grab a quick bite to eat at the IKEA cafeteria, perhaps some Swedish meatballs or gravad lax! Then we'll head over to the concert venue to park the car and maybe pop into a pub for a drink before the show.
Neko! Neko! Neko!
