Line Out - Comments on The Best of Jarvis http://lineout.thestranger.com/2007/05/the_best_of_jarvis Having been fortunate enough to see Pulp at Wembley Arena back in March 1996, I felt confident Jarvis Cocker would not disappoint live at the Showbox last night. His catalog as a solo artist may be modest thus far,...

To share a highlight from that show, somebody threw a pair of panties on stage with "I've got that taste in my mouth again" written in the crotch. Good ole Jarv picked them up and proceeded to smother his nose in them. =)

So, I chose to skip last night all together. Glad to hear he hasn't lost it, though...

It was great. I was hooked. I saw them again in the UK on their final tour in the Thetford Forest outside of Cambridge. A group of friends went over for Wimbelton, decided to go to the show and I was convinced to join in. It was one of the highlights of my life - the insanity of it all (flying that far to see a show in a remote forest). Despite not playing any Pulp stuff, last night's show too me back to both of those nights...spanning 16 years. I was really happy and had a smile on my face the entire time. I find the new CD rather dull, but he really pulled it off live. I loved "Black Magic" and I was really impressed by "Purple Haze". It was a GREAT show.

"I've heard that as well," Jarvis says.

"Excuse me *whilst* I kiss the sky!"

My Lover said, "He's kind of like Mick Jagger," which was kind of like true.

A really great show.
