Kind of Pluto are: Steven Gates, Simm Thom and Ben Rynderman now -Christine has left the band.
Here you probably won't catch reviews of Kind Of Pluto shows - cos I'm just too lazy.. hehe.. but I'll tell you this.. Kind of pluto ROCK, incredibly, hugely, brilliantly, and every living being should see this band live.
Meanwhile,
Go to the Kind of Pluto Message Board, which the band often visit, and enjoy the beautiful site design by Gemma Lee Gates (Yes, that's 'Mrs. Gatesy')So. I've got nuthin, sorry... Kind of pluto kick ass, go see them!
Kind Of Pluto - the official site. Go straight to the Message board Kind Of Pluto show reviews This particular show was just (Kind of) Kind of Pluto.
Wednesday January 3rd 2001 - Evelyn Hotel.
My First show! It wasn't even the whole band and I was completely blown away. Steven's vocals and Lyrics were incredible. The words to ever song extremely meaningful and brilliant. I found myself mesmerised by every single minute of the show, including Steven's Inbetween songs jokes, his cheeky smile and of course, the Britney Spears cover.
Whether he was singing "Angry Young Man", "Farmiliar",
"Middle-man" Or a song about his family's ghost stories, Steven was engaging and just plain incredible. I was awestruck as he reminded me of Jeff Buckley at some points, but at others the sound was completely different.
I was also greatly impressed by Scod and Yon coming to watch him perform and showing their support (by Yon Heckling.. teehee.. he only did it once..) But I was touched by their cute group hugs when they arrived.. I pretended I wasn't watching..but ShHHhh!
So basically, as you can see, I loved the show. If Steven was that strong alone, I can't wait to see Kind Of Pluto all together, you can imagine what my next review will be like can't you?!
Also, the night was made even greater by getting to talk to Steven afterwards, who absorbed every compliment I gave him,(and there were many)by just sounding sweet and saying cheers a lot. Nice to get to talk to him about the Falls festival too, and I got to thank him for the falls shows, and also wish him a happy new year, so my night was pretty much tops!! (in the words of merrick and rosso)
I also got to speak to Scod about when Tripod would be doing more shows, and wish him and Yon a happy new year too, so I was duly impressed by my own bravery, a couple of months ago I never would have been able to talk to them, but now I'm all content. heehee.
I hope to not miss another KOP show if possible (I'm sure that it will be unavoidable at some stage.. *pout*) but I'm gonna try my hardest, and I can't WAIT for the new album.
rock on guys.
