Was looking at that today, bit too expensive for me though.

Crosby Stills & Nash tomorrow, Royal Albert Hall.

I am jealous

Not a whole lot at the moment. Saw Bonobo last week. He/they were most excellent. Next up is Hot Chip, Leftfield, et al in Dundee at the weekend.

Editors – UEA
QotSA – Wembley Arena (my least favourite venue)

I guess it’s best described as ‘world music’ (shudder) which is to say a mix of loads of genres (jazz, latin etc.). Great get up and dance music..

I found them from the Seasons film:

Last gig was Drenge who were superb.

Next up are a couple of old school electronica gigs, with Orb in Holmfirth in November followed by Eat Static in Hebden Bridge during December.

And I’ve grudgingly being talked into going to see Shed Seven’s gig in Leeds just before Christmas. They weren’t that good when they were good in fairness………..

Going to see the god-like genius that is Johnny Marr on Saturday. Off for a bit of folk tonight. Tracy Browne at the Irwell Works Brewery 🙂

Dezzy baby – seen PSB a couple of times recently. They’re great live!

The naked and famous – Birmingham. Not that excited anymore as the new album is a bit ‘meh’

Foy Vance in a few weeks , quality

This sat – The Proclaimers at the Hyrdo in Glasgow 🙂 🙂

@ CountZero and themightysimmonite – thanks. I’ve seen some vids on Youtube and he exudes talent, with a knowing nod as it were! Fantastic voice too. 8)

I guess at the time I was too busy obsessing over Van Morrison, along with Neil Young, Allman Brothers, Hendrix, etc 🙂

What a brilliant time for music, incredibly special in the 70’s. So many memories.

Oh and also saw Crosby Stills & Nash in the 70’s. 8)

Buzzcocks in December.

Saw both The Airborne Toxic Event and Paul Weller this week.

TATp are a small indie band from the US and their gig was absolutely outstanding. Small venue in Glasgow and the place was bouncing. Defo in my top 3 gigs so far.

Paul Weller was as expected, musically tight as ****, his band were absolutely spot on. Dunno who the drummer was but he was class.

Got Electric Six next month. 🙂
