Wilko Johnson joins British Sea Power onstage at Canvey Island
Posted by Andrew Harrison on 8 February 2008 - 1:15pm.
"Do You Like Pub Rock Music?" as the album title could have it. WORD favourites British Sea Power played Canvey Island last night, accompanied by local legend and pub rock prime mover Wilko Johnson, seen here with guitarist Noble astride his shoulders. Is this a Pet Shop Boys/Dusty Springfield moment which may bear future musical fruit? One can but hope.
Would readers like to suggest other local heroes who should be mandated to appear with any band playing on their "manor"?

Never mind all that...
...Does Wilko still do that stare/machine gun/pacing backwards and forwards thing?
A thing of great joy and wonderment.
Be a bit tricky with yer man on his shoulders mind.

Lets hear it for Steve Gibbons and Editors.
Back on topic...
Andrew, you will appreciate back home that it is not unknown for the likes of Pete Wylie/Ian Prowse/Ian McNabb to appear onstage at the drop of a backstage rider with any passing band.
But I'd pay good money to see Pete Burns take the stage with Radiohead.
Oh absolutely, it's rude not to
Would be nice to see Paul Rutherford pop up alongside "All Four Original Members Of Asia" at the Liverpool Academy a week next Friday.
