Only gig I have booked is Andy Fairweather Low in Buxton next weekend, saw him recently at Hayfest and was knocked out by how good their “cut-down” set was so really looking forward to the full thing

Went to see Alex Clare on Sunday, what an incredible live singer! sounds exactly like he does on the album

@choclolate he played his only UK gig on MONDAY at Shepards Bush

I assure you that wasn’t his only UK gig, he was in The Ritz in Manchester on 09/11 (SUNDAY) 🙂

Being a busy morning. Booked tickets for Dr Feelgood at my local pub! Slow club in Manchester and The Staves at the Sage Gateshead. Also got tickets for First Aid Kit in Manchester. 🙂

Non of your “cool” bands above for me.

I’ve got December tickets for Madness, I was a massive fan in my teens but this will be the first time seeing them live.
I can’t wait #Sorry

I don’t even like Madness, but they were great live when I saw them

John Grant at Liverpool Philharmonic in a couple of weeks.
Kate Tempest at Kasimir in Liverpool, Feb.

I strongly suspect my anniversary pressie tomorrow will be DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist ‘Poets of Rhythm’ tickets for next Feb in Manchester.

Yay.

Ariana Grande at Bankrupt Arena, Manchester! <high-pitched scream> </high-pitched scream>

Fortunately it’s my wife who gets tasked with enjoying that one.

Madness are awesome live, you’ll love it. Saw them at some London festival in the 90s along with Ian Dury and the Blockheads and the Buzzcocks. Sadly the missus had a panic attack in the crowds halfway through ‘House of Fun’ and we had to beat a hasty retreat.

Lamb at Les Docks in Lausanne this Friday, can’t wait!

Got a few booked I’m pleased to say….. Love stuff to look forward to…

Ryan Adams in Leeds
Ben Howard at the Arena, Newcastle
Belle & Sebastian in Newcastle
and of course Top Gear Live with my little boy 🙂

Fish, in Bristol Next month, looking forward to this one, really enjoying Feast of Consequenses.

Hopefully Anathema playing an acoustic gig in Winchester Catherdral next year, as long as Santa does his bit with the tickets 😉

Last week was Rise against in Mancunia, and Lionize in Liverpool

Mastodon next week in Manchester
then Slash in the Arena
Then Machine Head just before chrimble

I fear I may be out of step with current forum enthusiasms. 😆

Mastodon in Newcastle for me.
I might have to get to a Lee Scratch Perry gig, could be interesting and I also thought he’d died 🙄

James and Embrace this month 🙂

so Jack White was last night at the hydro, was no bad, first half wasn’t great I thought, trying to do the early white stripes stuff with a full band is just wrong if you ask me! it picked up just before the interval as he started to do later Stripes stuff and a few raconteurs choons. Overall, alright, but i much prefer the white stripes(QMU gig in 2001 is still on of my favourite gigs).

Essentially, the bold Jack has been given too many toys to play with i reckon, he should strip it back down! 🙂

Incidently btw, what is it with crowds not demanding an encore? I was just getting really into it towards the end as was the band, I thought they were gearing up for one. But nothing from the crowd looking for one, guess we can put that down to a mid week gig..

Just bought my tickets for Foo Fighters in May. Well pleased

Me too John! Manchester?

Although you do realise that they’re over rated dad rock? 😉

The Who at the O2 in december

Machine Head at the Bristol O2 10th December 😈

Saw Bob Mould at Oran Mor on Saturday night; fabulous. Been a fan since his Husker Du days, and really enjoy his solo stuff too (taking in Sugar along the way). Sold-out crowd, epic setlist and boy was it loud!

Managed to get some very last minute tickets, so I’m of to the Royal Albert Hall tonight to see James on the Petit mort tour. Should be good seeing as I’ve already seen them twice in the last 10 days!

yes, Manchester. much as I’d prefer to see them on the right side of the hill, it’s nearer than Sunderland* 😉

Dad Rock? Overrated? i seem to remember something of that ilk being mentioned on here 🙂

I like ’em, never seen them live in the flesh (on telly, yes) so when an opportunity to do so arises, that doesn’t involve seemingly-impossible-to-buy festival tickets, then yeah, why not?

* I’m still smarting about the 1973 FA Cup Final 😉

He was on LaLa’s show on 6 Music this morning, and he was brilliant. Just him with his guitar, and what a lovely bloke when interviewed, too.
Bloody annoyed with myself for missing out on his Bristol gig, I knew about it, but was a bit committed cash-wise, then it sold out. Bugger. 👿

Going to watch gruff Rhys do his American interior gig again, it was **** brilliant last time

Now have tix for

Slipknot in Liverpool
Foo fighters at Old trafford Cricket ground

RIDE – may 2015 in Amsterdam………..hurrah.

NME Awards tour – Amazing Snakeheads, Fat White Family & Parma Violets (Portsmouth)
