Power-popper Matthew Sweet and lead Bangle Susanna Hoffs are at it again as duo “ Sid N Susie .” Anyway, last time around it was 2006, and they were covering 60s classics. This time, they’ve progressed into the 70s, covering songs by acts like Fleetwood Mac, Rod Stewart and Mott the Hoople. They’ll be in the area for two shows – this Sunday, November 8th at the Birchmere...

A tweet from a friend led to my playing “I Wish I Was Your Mother” by Mott the Hoople. I’ve been using the Zune software, rather than Rhapsody, lately. It has a “Smart DJ” function that is similar to Genius...

Martin Schneider writes: The interview/concert with Ian Hunter and Graham Parker at (Le) Poisson Rouge on Bleecker Street on Saturday night was ridiculously entertaining, and the most atypical New Yorker Festival event I've ever seen. I'd hazard a guess that the audience included more non-subscribers than usual. Why? Because the Mott the Hoople crazies were out in force. Preliminary lubrication included...

If Mott the Hoople and Dr. Dog had a baby, it would be called Tom the Poodle, and it would sound like the Shaky Hands . The Portland band's no-frills, all-boogie presentation reclaims the spirit of the blues-jamming early '70s — without relying on girl jeans and mustaches. On the grou...

Curious how the significant places of one's childhood that once seemed vast appear so much smaller when you visit them years later. Last night (Monday 5th October), the Hammersmith's Apollo looked minuscule compared with the days when it was called the Odeon and I queued all night to get front row tickets for David Bowie and his Spiders From Mars. Spider-in-Chief, blond bombshell and guitar supremo,...

Sat directly behind me was Primal Scream's Bobby Gillispie. Also in the audience were Jimmy Page and memers of the Quire Boys. No doubt other famous artists, such as Joe Elliot and Brian May, attended other nights of the five that Mott The Hoople played at Hammersmith, their first shows for over thirty years. The original line bar the drummer, though he played two songs in the encore looking very frail,...

Eyebrows were raised when Mott The Hoople's initial reunion shows at the Hammersmith Apollo sold out so fast that further dates had to be added, then more. One expects the likes of Led Zeppelin to inspire such sizeable affection, but Mott? Who knew there was such a collective yearning for the glam boogie monsters?

Due to a mate having to work a shift tomorrow night,I have a spare ticket going for the Mott the Hoople gig at Hammersmith. I only want face vale plus the ludicrous ticketmaster service charge which comes to a total of 40 squids. Anyone interested, please mail me and we can arrange to meet in a Hammermith hostelry prior to the gig. The Ticket is a stalls seat Row BB
