@vicory I agree. XTC/The Dukes of Stratosphear are not an easy band to cover, at least well. To learn the riff properly would be a good pointer.
-
oh to have been there, nice
-
Sorry but this is a terrible cover of an incredible song. You may say "well show me your superior version" but, alas, I can not and will not. I would simply say, work on it some more, and particularly pay attention to the the tone of the main guitar part. A Strat into a Vox amp should get you there.
-
Kudos to the drummer for nailing the fills. Nice performance all around.
-
OK, you are totally cool for even knowing about this song, much less COVERING it, but then your performance hits the cover off the ball. I just wish it was recorded better! Fantastic, keep it up.
-
beauty. You made my Sunday morning with this one.
-
Always wanted to cover that one!
-
Standing ovation here in the UK.
Bravo.
-
This actually makes me all warm inside to think of bands over the pond covering this kind of classic. It means music is quite possibly not dead. Really nice job!
-
Not very bad at all, the intro was not much exciting but then it started to 'thrill'...
The vocals are not easy though - at least 3 voces - which I missed here.
:-(
-
One of my Fav songs ever and you guys did a GREAT job!
-
Not a bad cover. I adore this song. Good bass!!
-
Yeah....Colin Moulding wrote Vanishing Girl
-
surely this is from the moulding mould
-
Great cover! Love to hear people digging into the Dukes of Stratosphear. Everything the Dukes did was great but yet they are almost totally forgotten.
-
You guys fucking rock and quite The Hollies homage from Andy Partridge
-
You're fantastic !!!
-
I love this song. Great cover.
-
I'd cover this song if I had hands. Great...onward and upward!

What song were they doing before the Vanishing Girl?

Vanishing Girl was the first song of the encore. What you see before that was a reprise of the ending of This Will Be Our Year, which ended the main set.

Great song. Any video of them doing a song called Kites Are Fun?

Replies never seen to work for me when I include a youtube link so all I can say is yes, it's up here. Try a search for "flat five" and/or "kites are fun" and/or "free design."
