Looks like Serge is launching his own solo career.

Well... it doesn't have to mean they will stop with the band, but it usually does...

I'm going to this one, mostly out of duty and because I'm out around those parts of London on Friday and it's a free show.  Really don't know what to expect, probably some aitor-inspried high conceptual art in forms of scribbles which I won't understand. Surprise me Serge. |

I have no idea what to expect, probably in the same vein as the FCOL art, little symbols, pop culture references, that sort of thing maybe? Even if they all made a solo album now, I wouldn't worry too much about the future of Kasabian. We're literally two weeks into the break. I think they should go and do some interesting things and come back with a new band record when they really feel like it. |

Sergio has taken his sense of humor to another level, unfortunately I just don’t get it.

I sort of liked it, it was a small scale thing, quite funny and entertaining pieces of art and quite different types of media - they were a few screen-like things with changing lights, a vintage looking TV, some heads made out of clay I think. Oh also lots of clay ducks, i dont know why. Everything was for sale, and there was merch too - some daft-apethy shirts with ducks and whatever else and posters saying Glue Sale - I got one of them. Obviously it wasn't some mindblowing thing and lots of things felt like an inside joke which I didnt get, but it was cool to look at.

I didn't really like it tbh. I thought it was the sort of art that really needs to be saying something, and what it was mostly saying was, "look people, we grew up in the 80s". I dunno, it just seemed mediocre compared with the genius of the music. It was VERY in-jokey, and probably a lot more amusing if you were in on some of the jokes. The ducks thing was to do with those flying ducks some people used to have on their walls here in the 1970s and 80s. Bizarre British suburban trends of the past, cuttoff . |

It's all really funny, provided you're from Leicester and happen to be their friend. I got the impression that a lot of people didn't realise Daft Apeth is Serge anyway? They never mentioned anything beyond him being an "unknown British artist". Fans who follow them very closely would have figured it out, but when they announced this show I saw a lot of comments asking what it is and if the band would perform. |

It worries me because that has the potential to become a bit of an ever-decreasing circle, creatively. But also, when everything's an in-joke, eventually you start feeling that maybe the joke is on us (well, I do, I may be paranoid). I don't know how many people knew daft-apeth was Serge. It was odd that all the tickets got snapped up then people just didn't turn up on the day. Maybe even people who did know only got tickets hoping to see Serge himself, and when they realised he wouldn't be, they just didn't bother? I dunno. They were expecting more attention because apparently they'd booked security and when no-one showed up they sent them home again. |
