Roll on 35 years, and I am entering Boiler Shop in Newcastle upon Tyne to see the duo of John Linnell and John Flansburgh, aka They Might Be Giants, supported by their trusty band. This time, they are bolstered by a horn section, which ties in nicely with the release of their latest live album, Beast Of Horns.
On a slightly humid Brisbane evening, They Might Be Giants (TMBG) played the first (but second listed) local show for the Flood, Book and Beyond: An Evening tour.
