Hot upcoming gigs

I'd be very surprised if there's any big gigs going ahead this weekend. Not even sure if any small ones/pub gigs will be able to happen either, but everything in my band's diary looks to be scrubbed out.
 
I've got Dean Wareham in April and then Reverend Horton Heat in May - will be gutted if the latter doesn't go ahead, I've been waiting ages to see him again.

Rev HH has been rescheduled to same day next year :) Something to look forward to, at least.

It makes me sad every time I see this thread with no new posts :( Necessarily furloughed.
 
I can't see that this has been raised before but Cafe Oto are having a big online auction to try and off-set some of the losses from not being able to stage gigs at the moment.


For those who have been you'll know what a unique and special venue this is. They're run on a shoestring at the best of times so the current situation is undoubtedly hitting them and their lovely staff hard.
If you're into folk, jazz, experimental stuff there might well be something to take your fancy at the auction.
I'm bidding on the Luc Ferrari posters, I've got fuck all else to spend money on at the moment.

Not surprisingly really. I still have a couple of rescheduled gigs on the radar for October, but realistically my next gig now is April.. Even that, I wouldn't place a bet on!
 
A mate who runs a couple of grassroots live music venues got in touch yesterday to say that there's arts council funding available to make gigs in smaller venues viable over the next 6 months or so - the capacity of his venues will now be about 30 and about 20, so they're going to be quite strange gigs... but I guess we can probably expect to see stuff starting up again - after a fashion - quite soon.
 
postponed from May 2020 to... February 2021. That sounds realistic at least.
Just had an email saying this rescheduled sun kil moon gig has now been cancelled. Googled it, only to discover that mark kozelek has just had several accusations of "sexual misconduct". 2020 strikes again.
 
I have one gig that hasn't been cancelled or rescheduled for December. It’s Dizraeli with an orchestra in Bristol. Dizraeli playing his new album I’m full was my last gig of 2019 & my last gig.
 
In the spirit of keeping myself hopeful and have something to look forward to I've bough a ticket to see the viagra boys in November :)
Postponed.......
But Thee oh sees still going ahead on Nov 5th- seated table service. Going with two mates.....but I go to a lot of gigs on my own and as the new normal seems to be tables of 6 or 4 I'm wondering if I'll be able to ever have a table for one?

I've got Crack Cloud at end of Nov but not sure if the venue will be open and its a covid nightmare in terms of venue lay out, toilets, ventilation....

I've just emailed one venue to ask if its going to be possible to get a table for one....

I have a ticket to see Amon Tobin, if I ever actually see him, it will take some beating in terms of the time between buying the ticket and going to the gig. Recently cancelled and no date yet. I’m suspecting it’s going to be over two years.

I’m starting to worry there’ll be hardly anywhere left to see bands once we get passed Covid-19.
