Gigs I have been to recently thread

[magicrat]

Are you the same magicrat from YouTube fame?

Checks out YouTube to make sure . No afraid not

Did find a nice clip of Thunder Road from last night though

[Captain]

I read the thread title as 'Tits I have been to recently thread'.

 

I seriously need to get laid!

[Frank Dacey]

Boss was brilliant last night. Couldn't believe it when he said " Do you want me to carry on with requests or play Darkness on the Edge of Town?" didn't think he meant the whole album. My fav as well. Setlist was as good as I have ever had in over 20 gigs. Thought "Bobby Jean" was the pick of the encores

 

The only downer ,apart from the pissy beer at a fiver a chuck, was the poor sound quality. We were on the pitch and couldn't find a spot where it sounded good. In the end we were right at the back as it was a little better there. Did anyone else think the same ?

 

I thought the sound was poor, though it seemed to me to be worse at some times than others. A lot of online comments have said the same thing. Hopefully it will be better at hard Rock and the Millenium Stadium.

Not music but I have just seen Daniel Kitson in Amsterdam. He is one funny fucker.

[Chairman Meow]

Vista Chino tonight with Monster Truck supporting. Really good gig, Monster Truck quality and Vista Chino did loads of old Kyuss stuff and sounded fantastic.

 

One of the best gigs I've been to in ages.

[Skidfingers McGonical]

Is Brant Bjork with them Chev?

[Paulie Dangerously]

I went to see Damien Dempsey the other week. After YouTubeing him I was dreading 90 minutes of Irish folk music because there's nothing I hate more than Irish folk music. Luckily he was a lot Rockier then I expected though. there was a very anti-English vibe at times and being in a room with 500 smashed Oirish was challenging

[Chairman Meow]

 

Is Brant Bjork with them Chev?

 

 

 

Yes, it's Garcia, Mike Dean, Brant Bjork and Bruno Fevery at the moment. Garica and Bjork both looked like it takes them a hell of a lot of effort to do it these days but sounded brilliant.

[The Golden Eel]

Going to Depeche Mode on Saturday

Is he on drums or guitar?

 

Thought Oliveri was in them as well, or is he concentrating on Mondo Generator.

[Skidfingers McGonical]

I have Alice in Chains on Monday with Gost B.C. suporting them.

 

Should be a boss gig, 4 of us going.

[Stu Monty]

Went to see a band called Red Kite last week, at the Ruby Lounge in Manc. They were pretty decent if not amazing. One of the blokes in the band (I'm thinking the frontman) was from The Cooper Temple Clause, whose first album I had a lot of time for.

[Chairman Meow]

Mike Dean on bass and Bjork on drums skiddy. No idea with Oliveri is up to at the moment.

[Redder Lurtz]

Alice In Chains on Sunday night at Leeds 02 academy. Top class. Supported by a band called Ghost who walked on to Gregorian chanting and looked like this:

 

so that was nice. AIC were first class.

[stringvest]

not happened yet, but James Lavelle has just been announced as the director of next years Meltdown.  Prepare for a NickCave-a-thon..

[Bjornebye]

Beady Eye at Portsmouth Guildhall on Tuesday. Got a job interview in the morning in Southampton then it's all day drinking before the gig. 

[Sugar Ape]

Stereophonics at the MEN tomorrow.

 

Comedy gigs, I went to see Micky Flanagan at the Echo last night. Better than I thought he'd be.

[Scott_M]

Wish I'd have gone to AIC at Leeds. I wasn't bothered when I read it was a Sunday.

 

Depeche Mode at Leeds Arena tonight. First time going. Heard mixed thoughts on it as a venue. Wasn't really interested in going last yesterday but woke up today looking forward to it.

 

QOTSA a week today at MEN & Pixies on the 21st at the Apollo.

Nice work mate they will all be boss 

[ZonkoVille77]

Going to see Sigur Rós on Sat. Can't fuckin wait these guys are amazing live.

[Fowlers God]

Stereophonics at the MEN tomorrow.

 

Comedy gigs, I went to see Micky Flanagan at the Echo last night. Better than I thought he'd be.

I saw Flanagan at the 02. Thought his Out Out tour was brilliant, not so sure about this one. Maybe because I was hammered. I found some of it cringeworthy and cheap with the saville jokes and then there where a lot of 70's references that I didn't get. I thought it was average

Sounds like your gig was as class as the Manchester one on Monday.

 

Ghost are a boss band and were the perfect warm up for AIC. Who, as I have previously stated already in this thread, were fucking amazing. I am still buzzing today.

 

I love how they only played about 3 newish tunes and the rest were classics.

[Scott_M]

Really gutted I didn't go & see AIC now. Boo.

 

Some of the new stuff is ace. Check My Brain, Stone & Hollow deserve to be heard by millions.

 

Expensive week & they were last to go on sale.

 

And it was a Sunday.

They were ace but I'd swap that night for your Pixies ticket. You absolute twat, Paulie. Bandsintown fucked me over on that. They didn't list it until after all the tickets were sold, the shitheads.

 

Anyway, just found out that The Damned are to be supported by The Dickies at Leeds 02 on 12th December so that'll be 2 years in a row I'll be like a giddy fucking teenager. Then Max Raptor at The Cockpit on 17th which I'm seriously looking forward to. Can't wait to see those lads play live.

New stuff, along with Black Gives Way To Blue is more of a mature refined sound. Which I am glad about personally.

 

Billy Duvall can certainly pull the classics off more than he could when I seen them 2010.
