Carter usm. Tomorrow.
Saw Damon Albarn last week at the Royal Albert Hall - a beautiful experience!
Next month:
- The Who in Birmingham (33yrs after I last saw them)
- (from) The Jam in Gloucester
and Texas next April apparently
I wanted to see Jon Hopkins and Ulrich Schnauss but both fall on days when I have my daughter staying. Ah well, I've seen them both before so perhaps this is a sign to branch out and see someone new in 2015.
The Cure at Hammersmith next month
First Aid Kit at Brightin Dome in Jan, or might be Feb
And should probably get Underworld tickets too
Crowds not looking for an encore at midweek gigs? You should've been at The Temperance Movement on Monday night at Manchester Ritz, the crowd sang, stamped and clapped like lunatics for an encore and the band were really chuffed!
The Whisky Sessions this weekend- I am Kloot, British Sea Power, Tim Burgess, Turin Brakes and Gomez. Star lighter next weekend, Elbow lots of times in Feb, Clean Bandit, Ben Howard, Nick Mulvey.
I've just bought 4 tickets to see Nils Frahm at Camden Roundhouse in May. I'm quite tempted by Go Go Penguin at Koko as well.
Slowdive at Forum on Saturday. Jesus and Mary Chain and Ride in the new year.
I appear to be stuck in the early 90's!
The Wonder Stuff. This evening in brum
Depressingly the only thing I have lined up for 2015 is Ed Sheeran at wembley, bought for the gf's xmas present!
I've had an alright year for gigs though - Protest the Hero, Clutch, Reading festival and Mastodon.
A bit of an update, the Gemma Hayes gig was postponed after she was carted off to hospital the day of the gig, while we were in London, and only found out when we got to the venue.
The upside is that we get to go back to The Oslo again on the 17th of January, and eat excellent food and drink excellent beer!
I've now got tickets for the Paper Aeroplanes next May, which I'm pleased about, I really love them, and I'm going to my first festival since 1995 next year!
I've got tickets for the Isle of Wight Festival, which should be a lot of fun. Headliners so far are Fleetwood Mac, (yay!), Black Keys, The Prodigy, and First Aid Kit have also been confirmed.
Great thing is I can leave my car with family at Fairham, and they'll take me down to the ferry, which will only cost me around £16, instead of £160 or so to take the car over.
Angus and Julia Stone the other evening were a revelation, not what I was expecting at all, as I only have their first album and that's fairly quiet and folky.
What I got was a crammed venue, and a band that really rocked, they were outstanding, really very good indeed, and I'm so glad I got tickets because of the Staves.
Who were also superb, but they always are.
Kate Rusby last night was also superb at The Forum in Bath, everyone seemed to have a great time.
Went to Ginger Wildhearts birthday bash gig at The Forum in London last night.
Hectic evening and a great gig, but getting too old for this jumping around lark...
