Stylon Pilson Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 I'm seeing Foals in London this evening. Slightly worried about the journey back - I need to get across London from Alexandra Palace to Waterloo in time for my last train home at 2350. I've got a few options but there's always an element of risk. S.P. Quote

My favourite was when Gaahl and King Ov Hell took Infernis to court to try and wrestle away the rights to the Gorgoroth name. The look on the judge's face when reading the documents must've been priceless. 1 Quote

Had attended a wedding that day and went to the LSE to see Squeeze and the Distractions... both great. But missed the last train home. Take a notice saying ‘sorry no spare change or cigarettes’ if you want to get any sleep...😆 Quote

Stylon Pilson Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Update on the whole "Alexandra Palace to Waterloo" drama - left the gig before the encore, caught the W3 bus from stop R to Finsbury Park, Victoria line to Green Park, Jubilee line to Waterloo. Arrived in Waterloo at about 2322, and the 2320 train was delayed so I got on that. So, no need to sleep in the station. Hooray! S.P. 1 Quote

Barking Spiders Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Rammstein in MK in a couple of weeks. Had to get an Air B n B as all the stadium parking is booked up and so are all the hotels nearby.! Quote

I relocated to Germany in February and Rammstein are playing a couple of shows that are both about 2 to 2 1/2 hours drive away. I'm seeing them in MK! 🙄 Quote
Angelus Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 Going to see Terrorvision and GUN on Thursday. Playing an open air gig in Glasgow, which was ambitious when it was booked, but looks like it might be a warm dry evening. Quite looking forward to it. Quote
Bluewine Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 Summerfest starts this Wednesday. I might see, Fog Hat, Foreigner, Elvin Bishop Samantha Fish. 800 bands booked over 11 days of fun and music and nothing but fun and music. Had to post a pic of Sam for you young single guys. Blue 1 Quote

Thought they sounded bloody amazing live. Getting back to southwest London was a pain, but well worth it! Quote

Saw Lynyrd Skynrd with Status Quo and Massive Wagons last night in Manchester Arena. When Skynnyrd started the sound was awful, no bottom end - so no kick drum, no bass and the piano and cymbals were just too penetrating. Most things sounded thin. However, three songs in and things were much better. Strange though, as SQ and MW sounded pretty good. Maybe the bassists of both SQ and MW had more mids and crunch in their sound but the LS bass was mostly lost. Quote

Great performance, good show, and the sound balance was decent too, which is rare for a large gig these days. It wasn't just a suffusion of kick drum. S.P. Quote
Merton Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 Seeing Live, er, live for the first time on Sunday at Shepherds Bush, can’t wait. They were the soundtrack to my teens along with Pearl Jam, STP etc.. Quote
