If anyone knows how to put on a show, it’s Nick Cave. After over 30 years in the business, melodrama still oozes from his every pore and each show feels like an important milestone in his career. Last time we saw him, a couple of years ago, we we were moved to award him a whopping five stars. He’ll be at Hammersmith Apollo on Saturday and Sunday.
