The boy is back in town

Tickets for Sweet Baboo's hometown show at the Transport Club on 1st December sold out before I got my arse in gear, but thankfully all was not lost. Christmas being a time for giving, he generously afforded those of us who missed out a chance to redeem ourselves by playing at the same venue again six nights later. The evening was memorable as a celebration of the former folkie's blossoming into a sonic chameleon (as evidenced by this year's LP Wild Imagination) - but also for delightfully daft support slots from Farm Hand and Kid Carpet.
