Nick Cave fans?

I've become a huge fan of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds during the past year or so. He is so eclectic, ranging from the punk-laden angst and rage of "Murder Ballads" to the darkly humorous (and sometimes tender) songs on "The Boatman's Call."

Any other aficionados out there? Favorites? Best shows?

I heard his version of "Oops..." on NPR's Fresh Air - pretty funny. I'll never be the world's biggest Thompson fan, but I do enjoy the very early (late 60's) Fairport Convention (his original band). (BTW, anyone into his brand of rock electric guitar work might also want to check out some Richard Lloyd [ex-Television] stuff). Likewise, I preferred Husker Du to anything Mould has done since, but in both cases I can't see too much of a Cave comparision.

Yes, Alex, I like Fairport, too, esp. Unhalfbricking, Full House, Liege and Lief. The post-RT and Sandy Denny Fairport didn't do much for me.
