I'm going to see Rob Dickinson of the Catherine Wheel play solo tomorrow evening at the Tractor in Ballard, of all places. I just discovered this evening that Rob has a Wikipedia entry, which is entertaining. (Wishville has its own entry, too.) They also allude to his familial relation with Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden. Naming bands after medieval torture devices apparently runs in the family.
I'm looking forward to the show. While I wasn't ready for his previous performance at the Croc many months back, I think I'm over the whole Fresh Wine For The Horses let-down. Oh and Rob has sent me a friend request on MySpace so I figured I should go to his show. It's the least I can do.
Maybe Rob and I can hang out and reminisce about Toad's Place back in '97, crica Adam and Eve.
Pics to follow. The Tractor has flattering red lighting that is kind to aging rock stars.
And their aging fans.
