I saw her in a small local theatre a few years ago, where she had just her husband John Leventhal

accompanying her. Absolutely wonderful stuff, enjoy!

[cetera]

Off to see my mates in 'From Gold To Rio' (Spandau Ballet/Duran Duran tribute show) at Cranleigh Arts Centre tomorrow night

James, supported by Sleeper and The Pigeon Detectives, at Ludlow Castle

Well, that name certainly brought back memories..! Happy daze...

Boz Boorer All Stars in West Hampstead this Sunday. No idea what to expect, going as Boz recorded/mixed our forthcoming album so will be nice to catch up with him.

How would someone who considers Third a work of genius find the current incarnation?

I haven’t a clue! I kind of know their first album a bit but that’s about all. I’m aware this is a gaping hole in my musical education so I’m starting at the opposite end and will maybe fill in the middle bit over time…

I've got tix for Electric Eel Shock in Camden next month, they're always great live so I'm looking forward to that one. Just bagged tix for Therapy? later in the year and have seen Pissed Jeans and Chat Pile are also touring. Happy days!

Just bought tickets to The War on Drugs gig at the Royal Albert Hall in July. One of my favourite bands, saw them at the Alexandra Palace a couple of years ago, they were brilliant. Really looking forward to it.

[Barking Spiders]

Off to the Bearded Theory festival in May. Never heard of it till I saw a flyer last week.  Top line-up for me..Orbital, The Orb, New Model Army, 808 State, Utah Saints, March Violets, Sleaford Mods...

[toneknob]

Further embarassments of riches coming up in London:

Mike Stern at Ronnie's with Hadrien Feraud

Modern Standards Supergroup at the Forge with Felix Pastorius

Vincen Garcia at the Jazz Cafe
Kinga Glyk at the Jazz Cafe
Ida Neilsen at the Jazz Cafe
Nik West at the Jazz Cafe

Mononeon at Amazing Grace
 

(a) just got to decide on which to see and 

(b) time to think about that Jazz Cafe membership

The current set prominently features a favourite from Third (despite of course no one in the current line-up being in the Third line-up!)

 

I saw them at New Cross Inn a couple of weeks ago, excellent.

recent albums Hidden Details and Other Doors are pretty good, and make up a significant chunk of current setlists. Regarding that middle bit - start with Bundles and Floating World Live and you'll be very well placed.

Jeff Wayne’s War of The Worlds. Just bought tickets for this at Brighton on 12 April next year. As long as we’re still around by then. 

[vbance]

The Hives in London, a band I've always wanted to see live but somehow not managed so far.....not the best seats but judging by some YT vids of this tour it should be an electric atmosphere.

[Richard R]

It was supposed to be The Grateful Dudes in Kings Heath tomorrow, but instead I will have to mend the dishwasher 🥲

So it's just Eric Clapton, Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets, Half Man Half Biscuit and the Dudes (again) to look forward to over the next few months. Mustn't grumble!

I’m heading to Glasgow at the weekend to see The Gaslight Anthem. 
 

Had an absolutely pish few weeks so looking forward to chilling out.

Saw them in Leeds on their last tour. So good live and was a mammoth set.

I managed to get a last minute ticket to see Dragonforce, and am currently waiting at Camden Roundhouse for them to come on.

 

have seen them several times before and they always put on a good show

[TrevorR]

Off to see a performance of Adrian Snell’s rock opera, The Passion, performed with a choir and full orchestra at All Souls Langham Place tomorrow night. One of my fave musos - Dave Bainbridge (Iona, Lifesigns, Strawbs etc) is in the band. Should be good.

 

And just bought tickets for Trevor Horn’s band at Hampton Pool this summer. Can’t wait!!!

My friend is in guitar for that tour. Did the last one too, the infrastructure for it sounds incredible.

Next up for me is Snarky Puppy and Gregory Porter at Cheltenham Jazz festival, and I’m very tempted by Tool in Birmingham having discovered them for myself this week, 30 years too late to the party.
