this is smth I came across on the MA board from nme.com: "MASSIVE ATTACK and PORTISHEAD are teaming up for a charity gig in BRISTOL. The two bands will appear live at the Bristol Academy (February 19) at a fund raising concert in aid of the Tsunami crisis. Organisers say that the concert will be a "unique performance", and will feature collaborations on the night. This is also the first time the two bands have shared a stage, and a very rare performance from Portishead, who haven’t released a studio album since 1997. More very special guests are to be announced shortly. All proceeds from will go to Oxfam, who are organising water and sanitation relief in the crisis area. Ticket details will be announced next week, although NME.COM understands discussions are underway to webcast the gig. A website has been set up at crisisinasia.com." well, don't know what to say, really...  ;D |

NO WAY !!! Portishead Live !
This must be their first appearance together since PNYC. I could only imagine this to be the most incredible trip-hop show since that sublimnal kid started fucking around the genre.
I can only pray they go colaborative and it's not two separate sets or one just doing backup.

again , it's not exactly what NME are saying  here's the info on the official Portishead page : "We are playing live for the first time in 7 years as part of a fund raising concert for the Tsunami Crisis in Asia at the Bristol Academy on February 19th – we'll also be sharing a stage with Massive Attack for the first time. And more artists will be added to the bill very soon. We'll each play a short set, around 20 minutes and we'll be performing songs you know – very nearly unplugged. As so many of you are based outside of the UK the whole event can be viewed as a live web-cast and we'll be posting more details of this here so keep checking the site." hmm, there'll be some other acts  |

By any chance, does anyone still have a recording of this concert?
I used to, but it's long gone.
