Robyn Hitchcock?

He did not appear in the Streep rockstar one or A Master Builder -- but in non-Demme thesping he played "Mad Reg" in this US indie I have not seen:

Did he have his new squeeze with him? Not too keen on the single they put out.

she came out and sang on a few songs -- not exactly the right combo on some of it, but there were some parts that worked pretty nicely.

So the irregular Robyn/Yo La Tengo perform Black Snake Diamond Role show hit SF last night -- very good indeed! I shouldn't be surprised. Standout from the album songs itself was probably "Acid Bird" thanks to Robyn's astonishingly great solo -- really something remarkable. The second half/encore selections were good fun too -- a cover of "Going Down to Liverpool" among them, as was an encore including Pink Floyd's "Lucifer Sam" and a concluding "Element of Light." (Also did VU's "Run Run Run" earlier.)

Yeah the RHYLT show I saw in Brooklyn a little while ago was super super great. Robyn's frenzied wah pedal work - the soberly excellent ylt choir on do policemen sing - Georgia harmonies and ira faux-backward solo on Airscape (it's like baba o'riley ned - not titled the way you think it should be)
