Video: Dean Wareham in the UK (part 2)... and Paris

Here’s another selection of videos from Dean Wareham’s current tour around the UK (and one from Paris)…

After my last post Dan kept uploading more clips from the Leamington Spa show, here they are playing Galaxie 500’s Tugboat

After Leamington Spa the band headed to Leeds (I’ll write more about this at some point). Here the band is soundchecking up New World Julie - this was taken with my camera sitting on a soft seat so it vibrates annoyingly every time Roger hits the kick drum!

Next, on to The Fleece in Bristol, here playing Galaxie 500’s Snowstorm

… and on to London and Blue Thunder

You can also watch 30 minutes of highlights from the London show (although surely the show was just one 90 minute highlight?):

… and then across The Channel and onto a boat on The Seine in Paris, here they are playing Bourgeois Manqué from the new album:

The tour is now heading for a few dates in The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark and then six dates in Spain… so expect more! You can see a list of upcoming shows here. If anyone’s going to the show in Groningen feel free to hunt me down and say “hello”.
