Komedia, BrightonSun 25 Nov
A big, brassy, hoot! Rough at the edges, and fun from start to finish, which only came after they got down and did a 15-minute walkabout. See the gig photos on Flickr, and listen to a few tracks on their MySpace.

Kocani Orkestar
Sat 12 May Dome, Brighton
Macedonian magic from King Naat Veliov and the Kocani Orkestar. A raucous, rough-edged sound, 5 brass and 2 percussion, all portable. They all came down onto the stage
skirting for the last half-hour 'encore', which included a lengthy pasodoble and the Hava Nagila - nice to have a tune I could sing along to! The pictures (SE K800i) are from October, when they played at the Komedia - hot, sweaty and right close up. Papa wears his tuba with pride. See them on home territory in Emil Kusturica's 'Time of the Gypsies'.
