I really wanted to go and see them in Bristol, but failed miserably to do anything about it...

That's how I usually am....but I have been thinking I ought to make more of an effort....

Went to see URoy and Junior Murvin in Cambridge a while ago....it was shamefully underattended, and these are princes among men...ever since then, and also missing one of Lou Reed's last appearences...I remind myself that true greatness must be acknowledged....

I'm off to the CRS awards night on March 2nd as Arena are doing a set and I've never seen them. Bonus is that Bev Bevan is booked to hand the awards out, I'd love a chat with him if he's loitering at the bar during the evening.

Police and thieves by junior Murvin was one of the first basslines I learnt aged 14 in 1977 , great tune , and I’m still playing it 😀

I was 15....it took me a while to realise that Mick Jones hadn't actually written the song....

But that combination of punk attitude and reggae/dub bass culture has informed my whole musical life...and what I will experience on friday at the Massive gig follows on from it as night follows day....

I will be seeing Carmen Appice with Vanilla Fudge on 3/21 in a very small Milwaukee bar.

Gang Of Four is playing the same bar this week.

Blue

Would love to see Gang of Four.  I work in Leeds, where they're from, but have never seen them.

Got tickets for Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul in Leeds (May), and also Nick Lowe in Hull in June. Really looking forward to 'em both.

Woo hoo!

I saw Little Stevie and his Disciples in 1983! Reading IIRC, same years as Stevie Ray Vaughan on his first UK tour.

(He was quite a bit smaller then 🙂 )

Yeah, I saw Little Steven and the D of S either 82 (or 83?) in a small club in Newcastle, then again in 2017 in Manchester and 2018 at Whitley Bay. All were superb gigs, especially the recent ones. 15 piece band firing on all cylinders, can’t wait till May. New album due out around then too.  😊

That day of the festival is sold out. But Yob, Godflesh and Neurosis are playing in London on the 20th July. But that might be sold out too...

Ah. I've not picked up on you living in Italy :D

 

I've driven from Wales to the Netherlands (Germany side) for gigs.

I would do that, if I had company.
