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...........

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.

[i]Why wouldn't they?[/i]

Ooh! Ooh! I know! Cos there's always some ignorant moron sticking a camera/phone/device up in front of your face taking shite photos/videos while your trying to watch the band??

Was hoping to venture out to see Neutral Milk Hotel next year - they recently announced UK dates to their re-union tour. All sold out but it's ages away so I guess there will be opportunities to sort a ticket.

RX Bandits, Leeds, February

Chvrches, ABC, Glasgow

Why wouldn't they?

Ooh! Ooh! I know! Cos there's always some ignorant moron sticking a camera/phone/device up in front of your face taking shite photos/videos while your trying to watch the band??

Arctic Monkeys, Sheffield in November.

A load of lads have got a box - not my usual choice of way to see a gig, but saw them in the Don Valley Arena a couple of years ago, so done that - this should be good for the craic!

Debaser, how were Jim Jones Revue last night as I'm going to see them next Wednesday?

[img] [/img]

Ben and Lex supporting Dub Pistols.. (our local heroes)

I used to DJ with a guy who had a tune out on their label if I remember rightly. I used to be quite into the breaks scene but it seems to have died a death.

I also used to DJ sometimes with Mike Freear who set up Slamboree - he's from where I'm from. Small world innit. 🙂

Jim Jones Review were great. Properly raucous rock and roll. King Tut's will be a good venue for them.

Lots of interesting stuff in here, including a couple I fancied but wasn't sharp enough dashing down to the local ticket vendor for.
