Nick Cave part 2

The other day I was rattling on about our old mustached friend Nick Cave, well I had no idea we had an artist talk at uni today.
Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard do what they call "live art" which I guess is performance or video art with a leaning towards a live music feel. Amongst other things they got a Smiths tribute band to play in the Institute of Contemporary art.

At the end of the talk they mentioned that they made all the videos for Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!. What a coincidence! I was a bit in awe, I'm kinda glad I was sat on my own.

They're also producing documentaries to coincide with the re-release of a lot of the Bad Seeds back catalouge.
It's always kinda weird to see other people doing things you wish you were doing. Oh well!

They also did something on the Jesus and Mary Chain. Excellent!
