Hot upcoming gigs

Only disappointing if your work party is at the gig meaning you have to go see him

what night is it? Be a good evening to avoid manchester altogether...
Saturday 16th December at the Arena. I know not everyone likes/d Oasis but I'm the right age for a nice but of nostalgia and a good sing along plus I saw him at Glastonbury and the One Love benefit and he was great at both. Might get myself tickets for the Leeds date instead :thumbs:
 
I have got a last minute ticket for The Sisters of Mercy at the Roundhouse tonight... I've got the DMs out of storage, and am debating the appropriate amount of black/not-black clothing to wear.. :rolleyes: :facepalm:
 
I bottled out of any of the 'black stuff' as i found it was all covered in cat's hairs... Fortunately the audience was an 'eclectic mix' of hardcore goths and most making a token effort... As for Eldritch, I had to do several double takes, as balding and dressed in a black jacket, he has a remarkable resemblance to a pub bouncer these days..

The gig itself was impressive, especially his voice! But I always seem to come away from gigs at the Roundhouse slightly disappointed and I think it might be because the sound seems to get muffled in there..

heavy weekend in Manchester this weekend - Terminal Cheesecake / Anthroprophh / Blown Out / Cattle at the Star & Garter Friday, then Part Chimp / Mums / Bodies On Everest at the Soup Kitchen on Saturday. Wish I could do both...
 
I'm going to see the psychedelic furs and Lene Lovich on Wednesday 6th at the O2 in Bristol.
Sooo SHIT!!!!
That was a baaaad impulse buy! I love talk talk talk and it was a nice bit of nostalgia to hear 'India' ' sister europe' 'dumb waiter's but they had zero charisma. The butler brothers looked like creepy old men - cross between Lionel Blair, Bill Nighy and Quinten Crisp!!!
However I enjoyed hating it!!!:D

Lena Lovich was terrible as well.

Got a ticket for the lovely eggs in November!!! Loved them the last time, think it was my top gig of last year!
 
I haven't been to a gig in yonks - but over the next few weeks I've got 5 - yay!

Jeffrey Lewis - Lewes Con Club
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Millennium Dome
Acid Mothers Temple - Lewes Con Club
Gas - Barbican
Slowdive - Roundhouse
 
Going to see Jeff Lewis (and maybe Gas) in Manchester.

Has anyone seen the Gas live show? Any idea what he does?
I saw him perform at the Barbican a few years ago and it was one of the most psychedelic experiences I've had and I was totally sober.
Mesmerising stuff, the visuals were certainly part of it - I don't know if he'll have the same film but it went perfectly with the music - it was just a camera circling a tree, but with heavy processing going on constantly through it. Going in, I thought I'd be bored, but it really was riveting.
 
Did you say you were going to Container on the 23rd Orang? Haven't been to Golden Cabinet in a while, was thinking of driving over...
 
my mates' review of RA at Green Man - 'I do like his song, but did he really have to play it fifteen times?'
Have to differ with you're mate but then I'm definately a fan. :) Last night's gig was a very broad spectrum of his repetoir. It was mainly his electric stuff but even that is wide ranging in style. Each to their own though ;)
