Tomboy Dalek at the Sandsfoot Cove Academy, Dorset 09/06/06

This is beyond a joke. This is beyond an ironic joke about a meta-joke about an old joke that you can no longer even pretend to half-smile at. Dorset indie band Tomboy Dalek squeeze their fifteen (yes, fifteen!) drummers onto the tiny stage while lead moron Laura Kimmeridge makes dreamy cow-eyed faces at the audience, jigs and plays a penny whistle. Honestly, just fuck off.

Folky Oxfordshire songstress Thea performed a slick 3 hour set consisting of material from her last three albums, with a few older favourites thrown in for good measure. I would have enjoyed it but I couldn't get that bleeding Tomboy Dalek racket out of my head from last night. Fuck off!!!
