Peloquin Posted June 13, 2022 Posted June 13, 2022 I've just had an email saying that the postponed Blitzkid gig is now happening in October. Really can't wait for this one. Not off a pain though. I live in the UK and have to go to Chicago in September to see The Misfits then head to New York in Oct for Blitzkid. That's gonna work out expencive. Quote
Prosebass Posted June 16, 2022 Posted June 16, 2022 PIL (again) in Bristol this Saturday. Mr Lydon and co always put on a great show and it was 2018 we saw them last in Exeter on their 40th anniversary tour. Jungle in Bristol the week after. I have been following Jungle since their inception and this is the first time we have managed to get tickets for them. As well as the music, their dance videos are superb and worth checking out on YouTube. Quote
kevin_lindsay Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 I'm seeing PIL also - in Glasgow next Wednesday. Quote
6feet7 Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 I should be seeing Queen with Adam Lambert at the O2 this evening (postponed from 2 years ago, bought for my wife's birthday), but I'm still showing Covid positive (been off work for the last week with it), so thats put an end to that. Hoping I'm clear by Wednesday as I've got free tickets to see Roger Daltrey in Brighton and then I'm up to Coventry to see Rammstein next Sunday (once again, postponed from 2 years ago). I will be bloody p*ssed off if I miss two concerts that were postponed due to Covid 2 years ago just because I decided to be late to the party catching it Quote
Peloquin Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 Woo hoo... I'm heading out in 10 mins to nip to my mates in a craft ale bar, they are out on an all day stag do... Not my sort of thing. Id like to nip in to offer my best wishes though. I'll have a pint then walk acrid Town to go see Bob Mould play in the Sugarmill. Love his Sugar music but don't really know any of his solo stuff.

visog Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 Saw Barry Manilow on Thursday just passed... Felix Pastorius and Mike Bendy with the Hipster Assassins at Ronnie Scott's next. Beat that! Quote
upside downer Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 PiL tonight at Rock City with support from Brix Smith. 2 Quote

Scott Firth, very loud bass but usually clear as well, he's a great player and the marvellous Lu Edmonds on guitar, very interesting fellow. 1 Quote
SteveXFR Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 I got two emails within about 10 minutes from my local small live music venue. The first announcing Paul McCartney is playing there tomorrow night. The second to say it's sold out. Same venue that Foo Fighters played their Glastonbury warm up. They do manage to punch above their weight for an old cattle market. Quote
Graham Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 Just bought a ticket to see Touché Amoré in Brighton next week, not seen them before so looking forward to it Quote

Sounds good- watch out for bass player Steve Hanley in Brix and the Extricated. He was great in the Fall , but seems to have moved away from his signature sound lately. Quote

It's 10 minutes walk from home, the beer is great and the sound is excellent. I've seen loads of great bands there including White Lies, Airborne, Damned, Pigs x7, The Editors The Stranglers, The Skints, Dreadzone, Zion Train and loads of others. Pretty amazing for a small town venue. The PA in there came from the West Holts stage at Glastonbury so it's more than up to the job. 1 Quote
Adey Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 I'm off to Guns N Roses at Spurs on 2nd July.... Wooooo! Quote

No sign of Mr Hanley as Brix has an all female line up including ex-My Bloody Valentine members Deb and Jen. Quote

SteveXFR Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 High on Fire at The Fleece on Sunday night. It's going to be LOUD and heavy. I'm not sure Matt Pike's wall of Orange amps will even fit in the building let alone on the stage Quote

visog Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 Just listened to the Rockonteurs podcast on Youth. Sounds like an amazing person. Quote
nekomatic Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 On Saturday night Stockport Symphony Orchestra (in which mrs nekomatic plays violin) are doing Tchaikovsky’s 4th symphony and the Brahms piano concerto… with Joanna MacGregor as soloist, quite a coup for them as she’s a big name and mrs nekomatic has just come back from the rehearsal with her and reports she is amazing. It’s in the Town Hall, if you’re in the area do come down. Quote
BillyBass Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 (edited) I'm going to see Pearl Jam and the Pixies in Hyde Park on the 8th July. Next gig would be 'The Silent Era' in Camden Town on the 23rd July Edited June 23, 2022 by BillyBass Quote
