I envy you. This type of music is sheer fun, even for longer than seven seconds – as Neneh Cherry surely found out by herself. As for the Barbican, I discovered the place when it was brand new, in the early eighties, and quite liked it. How did it age?
I had attended a RSC performance of King Lear: the king himself was good fun, a nice chappy, but I didn’t fancy the jester. At the same time, there was this meeting of the European Dialysis and Transplant Association, but I found the sessions less inspiring.
