SPARKS

Greetings - I am coming to see Sparks in London in a couple weeks, and two folks who were going to join cannot make it (family health matters). No interesting in profiting here, would just love to see ...

Hey all,

I'm convinced that folks here would find my Sparks YouTube show of interest, so will start posting again.

Had a really fun conversation with Larry Graves, who has the YouTube Canadian ...

Recently, I had a conversation with Monte Mallin about the upcoming book about Sparks that I'm currently working on.

The first part is with the publisher, and the second part is currently being fin ...

Good piece, thank you for sharing. The quotes from Ron and very valuable. As the author notes, one thing Sparks has done great fro ...

There's a short feature on Noël in the latest issue of Electronic Sound (#117). Thanks to Monte's interview there's little that's new to us, perhaps, but good to see her get some more well-deserved pu ...

Well done Monte and Christian. You put so much work into these and it's always really appreciated.

I'm happy to be back and to share the latest interview on the YouTube show - one I know you will really enjoy! GREAT talk with Noel on her album, Is There More To Life Than Dancing, that was produced ...

would love to see it - if there's a link (can't find it on YouTube) please do share, and thank you!

Check the date on the first post Monte…….

Good point! Well, I stand by my words anyway! :)

I didn't hear the interview - if there's a link, it'd be great - but what is reported here does not surprise me...I think it was implicit in some of the music on the last album. If I ever get around t ...

Love this idea. I NEED two extra tickets for DC end of June!

I think it has been the best Sparks gig that
I have seen...

But they performend just a few songs from the new Album.
I do hope they might change that
With the forthcoming Shows ...

Wow, th ...

OK, replying to my own post. See that Sparks has put out their U.S. tour plans, and its great if you live on Right or Left Coasts, but not great if you are any of the (well at least I think) thousands ...

reports from my wife in Washington mention a great show again, a birthday

hat he got from the audience ...

Russell: ...

I think that the potential audience might not have known who was playing just by seeing F. F. S on the marquee. They should use Franz . Ferdinand . Sparks until they are better known. Both groups ar ...
