Edinburgh Festival

Vesuvia

I've seen Nick Cave solo and with The Bad Seeds many times. The ultimate professionals.

Murder Ballads is an amazing album. O'Malleys Bar is jaw dropping.

The Curse Of Millhaven lol ah wee Lottie.

I'll go and see what it is all about and give you a Dracul's Culture Vulture report.

My mate once pointed out that Stagger Lee was meant to be the meanest, deadliest geezer around. Yet his wife threw him out!!!!!!!!!!!

Mrs Lee must be a right handful then.


Here's a wee clip of the stage show.


Meet the regulars of O’Malley’s bar, Millhaven, West Texas 1882.

The town has not been the same since a Stranger turned up at the Lee family cabin and left without a trace. The curse of the Stranger ripples through the town;

Mary Lee thinks she’s herself from 16 years ago, Stephen Lee starts calling himself Stagger Lee and turns into a murdering brute, and little Lottie is the prime suspect in a string of violent murders…

Expect a raucous evening full of murder, madness and darkly comic tales.

Yep the DCV report is on. Got in touch with one of the lads from football (who was the man who got me listening to Nick Cave) and all systems are go.

I dinnae hate any other nations or their folk. I dislike religion and islam in particular.

I just love my nation and my folk.

As yous should do yours.

Try this one

I bought the book years ago but it got lost somewhere.

I did enjoy his film The Proposition. I like Ray Winstone as an actor.

Have any of yous subscribed to The Red Hand files? Folk send questions to Nick Cave about many subjects and he chooses ones which he answers personally.
