I'm very sorry to report that Clive Palmer (founder member of the Incredible String Band, has died) after a long illness. Here's Clive as I remember him from the reformed Incredible String Band in the early 2000s.

Very sad news. We saw him with the Incredible String Band about 6 or 7 years ago - albeit without Robin Williamson but with Mike Heron.
We fondly remember their 'Ducks on a Pond'

Hi Pete!

Try to catch this! Mike Heron with the Trembling Bells are really worth seeing, and the closest you'll get to an early ISB concert.

Hi John
We went to see Mike Heron and Trembling Bells at the Greystones, Sheffield earlier this year but unfortunately it was on the day that Mike broke his elbow and was in hospital having it fixed :(.. So the concert was just with The Trembling Bells - not quite the same!
I'll look up the Victoria Hall gig - I understand that he still can't play his guitar but as long as he can sing!!
Cheers
Pete
