"Luke Haines premiered his new wrestling concept album at a London show last night. The ex-Auteurs frontman played Nine and a Half Psychedelic Meditations on British Wrestling of the 1970s and Early &amp;#039;80s in its entirety at the solo acoustic gig at The Old Queen&amp;#039;s Head in Islington. During the set, a man dressed as 1970s wrestler Kendo Nagasaki, complete with cape and mask, sat stage-right watching wrestling clips on TV. Before playing album track &amp;#039;Saturday Afternoon&amp;#039;, a plate of liver sausage sandwiches were passed to the audience members.  &amp;quot;Sandwiches, made by my own fair hands,&amp;quot; Haines announced. &amp;quot;They&amp;#039;re not suitable for vegetarians. They&amp;#039;re not suitable for people who eat food. Liver sausage sandwiches for all. It&amp;#039;s the feeding of the 100!&amp;quot; The singer-songwriter closed the set with three older tracks, starting with a frequently-interrupted version of &amp;#039;21st Century Man&amp;#039;, which decries David Bowie&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;slap bass phase&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;I thought I was being pretty smart writing that line, but Bowie didn&amp;#039;t actually have a slap bass phase at all,&amp;quot; Haines admitted mid-verse. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve done a forensic study to prove myself wrong. There&amp;#039;s no slap bass on a single Bowie album.&amp;quot; Haines returned to the stage to read his &amp;#039;Rabbit stew with apparition of Dave Brock&amp;#039; recipe from his food blog as a final encore. The full Luke Haines setlist was as follows: &amp;#039;What The Plumber Saw&amp;#039; &amp;#039;Inside The Restless Mind Of Rollerball Rocco&amp;#039; &amp;#039;Gorgeous George&amp;#039; &amp;#039;Rock Opera: In The Key Of Existential Misery&amp;#039; &amp;#039;Linda&amp;#039;s Head&amp;#039; &amp;#039;Saturday Afternoon&amp;#039; &amp;#039;Big Daddy Got A Casio VL Tone&amp;#039; &amp;#039;I Am Catweazle&amp;#039; &amp;#039;We Are Unusual Men&amp;#039; &amp;#039;Haystacks In Heaven&amp;#039; &amp;#039;21st Century Man&amp;#039; &amp;#039;Leeds United&amp;#039; &amp;#039;English Southern Man&amp;#039; &amp;#039;Rabbit stew with apparition of Dave Brock&amp;#039; &amp;gt; Read Digital Spy&amp;#039;s recent interview with Luke Haines Listen to Luke Haines&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Inside The Restless Mind Of Rollerball Rocco&amp;#039; below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
