Public Service Broadcasting at the Lemon Tree tonight. Then I've got Twin Atlantic at the Music Hall on Monday (pending my train up from London being punctual). After that it's a barren couple of months until the Christmas Songwriters Club at the Queens Hall on December 22nd (highly recommended).

Got a few tickets for springtime in the last few days. Biffy Clyro in Aberdeen and also Frightened Rabbit in London, Manchester, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Glasgow.

On another note, Muse were their usual fantastic selves at the SECC last night.

[deeks01]

Not got many coming up at all which is quite depressing! Got the vaccines at the end of next month although not been impressed with their look recently with the matching denim waistcoats and such like and a lot of their fans are the same and extremely annoying. Wee daft kids who think the vaccines are gods gift to music when they've listened to a grand total of 3 bands in their life. However I've seen them a few times before all that kind of thing started and they always put on a cracking show so I'm looking forward to it anyway!

December I'm off to Manchester for the courteeners come back show with support from the view! Love both bands so I am positively bouncing for it even at this stage! Making a weekend of it as well with a few mates so should be a cracker!

Apart from that nothing major will probably take in 2 or 3 local bands and my mates band a couple of times.

Hopefully a lot of decent gigs will come up at short notice wether it's new bands I get into or tagging along with my mate who has a spare ticket to something a bit different to my usual I don't really care just enjoy having gigs to attend fairly regularly!

That'll be great, wish I was going.

You could say that I suppose! :greengrin

Also forgot that I've got tickets for Glasvegas at Aberdeen Garage (I'm looking forward to seeing how that is as a venue) and also for Two Door Cinema Club. Trying to nab a couple for Mumford at the Caird Hall too but it's very pricey.

Aye it should be! Had a right time of it trying to get tickets. Had money set aside for it and then the weekend before it had one to many sambucas and came down with a touch of 'weekend millionaire syndrome'. Woke up the next morning with no money in the bank for the ticket and vague memories of spending it on assorted expensive drinks for myself and a few mates. Long story short by the time I next got paid the tickets were sold out and I had to fork out over double the face value for one off eBay. Another lesson learned the hard way!

Seen frightened rabbit only the once myself but they were pretty good! I'm sure they were a support act but can't for the life of me remember who they were supporting. Wouldn't mind seeing them again though as the main act as it were!

Enjoy yourself man!

[Calvin]

Not to turn this into a match updates thread for my own gig-going, but I just got tickets for Maxïmo Park, Bloc Party, Delphic, Spector and Everything Everything in Manchester in December 4th. Very decent lineup, especially as I'm missing Maxïmo in Glasgow next week. I also have Crystal Castles coming up. Turns out my agenda is more packed than I thought!

[Gatecrasher]

Yes, playing O2 GLasgow in FEbruary, tickets booked. Was there in may to see em they were fab as we're the support acts Elle king and matt nathanson

[Steve-O]

Seen the Bootleg Beatles last night. Have to say I was very impressed and it was far better than I even thought it would be. That's coming from someone who's never been a huge fan of The Beatles but last night might've changed my views! Lennon and McCartney in particular were so like the real thing it really was unbelievable! :agree:

[H18sry]

Alice Cooper Halloween bash on Wednesday at Usher hall
The View at Barrowlands

[Frazerbob]

I have seen hundreds of gigsover the years and have been lucky to see some amazing live bands in their prime....U2, Simple Minds, Iron Maiden, Marillion, Madness, Stone Roses, Oasis, Ocean Colour Scene, INXS and some 80's band called Depeche Mode once or twice. Hell, I've even seen T'Pau. I have to say, The Killers last night in Aberdeen were right up there with the very best of them. Absolutely outstanding gig. I think I may have a man crush on Brandon Flowers!

[.Sean.]

Was Slash not at the beginning of the month? Unless he has announced another one. Was gutted to miss it especially as Ginger Wildheart was the support. Seen Slash previously with Velver Revolver and Slash's Snakepit. Seen Ginger in a number of different guises too many times to count (nothing beats his early wildhearts stuff though).

Been to a few gigs over the last couple of months, Terrorvision, Alestorm and Dragonforce. Got the annual Motörhead gig in a couple of weeks.

Trying to convince myself I can justify spending silly money to see Rush as well.

[YehButNoBut]

The only 2 I have got tickets for are

The Black Keys, SECC, Dec 8th
Biffy Clyro, SECC, April 1st.

Want to get tickets for Download next June 16th but only for the Sunday to see the superb Rammstein but no day tickets on sale yet only full weekend.

I'm waiting to see if Iron Maiden announce anything else in the uk before I decide on Download but will likely only be a day ticket for Maiden. It's usually quite late before day tickets get announced.

[Glory Lurker]

Sigur Ros at the SECC on 2 March.

[deeks01]

So yesterday stereophonics announced a Glasgow date on December 17th and the stone roses announced a Glasgow Green concert next June supported by Primal Scream , The View and Jake Bugg which almost made me wet myself. I liked yesterday , yesterday was a good day. No chance I'll be missing either of those! Anyone else for them?

I was extremely lucky to get to the comeback , bought my tickets face value off a mate who couldn't attend like a month before the gig. It was fantastic though! It's taken me a while but I'm now starting to enjoy Jake Buggs album!

The Killers are superb live. Managed to see them a few times now - Brisbane in 2004, TITP in 2005, Carling Academy Glasgow in 2006, TITP 2007 and Sydney in 2009. Pretty annoyed they don't seem to be coming to New Zealand next year while they are in Australia doing a few festivals.

If you get lucky again don't forget me! :cb Il have everyone and there dug phoning on Friday, took my laddy to Florida in the summer so forfeited TITP....then they where announced!! I'm desperate to see them live although Iv seen Ian Brown a lot and even though I love the man he's been dreadful more than he's been good so I hope it's a different story with the roses

Phoning? Get on the t'interweb and time it right. I have only missed out on tickets ONCE ever using the net...if youa re on at 8:59am and hitting refresh, you should get it. I don't think I've ever been successful trying to phone for a ticket in my life.

Of course not mate ;)! Ah no luck there like! I expected Brown to be sh*** but with Mani Reni and especially that man god Squire in tow he can't fail to put on a show. I actually think his voice is far better than its been in many years though so you could well be pleasantly surprised if it stays that way till June!

I'd agree with Steve-O above though get on the web don't phone! If you can't get on the web at the right time then give your ticket money to someone trustworthy and have them buy the tickets , you'll have a much better chance that way! :) good luck!

[Matty_Jack04]

Cheers guys tinternet it is

[Hibby_Paul]

Only a few for me

Frankie & Heartsrings at Elextric Circus in November.

Early next year:
Jake Bugg in Feb.
Of Monstets and Men
Alt-j

Just back from seeing Cribs headline Haddow fest, that was greAt day.

Also recently saw Whole Lotta Led (Led Zep tribute band) at Picture house and thought they were top notch.

[JohnStephens91]

Public Service Broadcasting at the Lemon Tree tonight. Then I've got Twin Atlantic at the Music Hall on Monday (pending my train up from London being punctual). After that it's a barren couple of months until the Christmas Songwriters Club at the Queens Hall on December 22nd (highly recommended).

Got a few tickets for springtime in the last few days. Biffy Clyro in Aberdeen and also Frightened Rabbit in London, Manchester, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Glasgow.

On another note, Muse were their usual fantastic selves at the SECC last night.

I've done the whole following a band on a tour thing and it is very tiring, I seen My Chemical Romance in London, Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester, Nottingham and Newcastle and later on that year they headline Reading and Leeds and I got day tickets for both the days they were on. If the dates are very close together you will be shattered.

My upcoming gigs are Jack White and The Xcerts. I was at Twin Atlantic a few nights ago and also Slash at the beginning of the month.

I did it with Frightened Rabbit on their Highland Tour in April. I did Aviemore, Stornoway, Portree, Strathpeffer and Dunoon on consecutive nights, and did it all with just a tent! It was tiring but well worth it!

I would be going to see The Xcerts up here but unfortunately I won't get a Saturday night off work during Christmas night out season.

[deeks01]

Did you manage to get yourself a ticket then mate? :)

I struck out myself , serves me right for trusting someone else to get our tickets. Hopefully people don't rip the pish too bad on eBay.

Same here mate unless other folk have came thru looking doubtful though

[deeks01]

No can do , not home yet and have zero in the bank at present. I have 80 quid to collect en-route and had my mate told me before 9am this morning he 'wasn't allowed' to get tickets I could have had my cousin pick up that money and use it to buy my ticket. Moral of the story? Never trust a 20 year old stay at home mummy's boy who still gets told he's not allowed to such 'dangerous' events. Sometimes I wonder why I'm friends with some people in all honesty.

Anyway well done to anyone who got tickets and I will still see you all there no doubt as I can't go missing this!

[deeks01]

No luck! As alluded to above perhaps trusting other folk with such vitally important task was not the best brain wave for either of us. Fingers crossed for you though mate!

[Sylar]

Lostprophets and We Are The Ocean on Monday at the HMV Picture House

Finch - 10 year reunion gig, performing What It Is To Burn in its entirety - Brixton Academy, London, March next year.

Stone Roses - Glasgow Green 15th June

Also buying a ticket for Complete Stone Roses at Glasow O2 Academy in December, one of the best cover bands around.

[Sylar]

Just back in Dundee from the HMV Lostprophets/We Are The Ocean/PureLove gig.

Wasn't overly in the mood for a gig tonight (the hour and a bit long drive really doesn't help) and took a while to get going, not aided by the ridiculous queue to get in...

I despised The Gallows, so I was always going to hate PureLove and sure enough did. We Are The Ocean were also a bit of a disappointment for me, quite clearly missing their former vocalist who recently left them.

I was apprehensive about the Prophets prior to the gig also - I've seen recorded footage of them live and I've never been impressed. I had seen them live before, but it was almost 10 years to the day, when they first toured Fake Sound of Progress. They were brilliant tonight though - note perfect, good energy and a brilliantly mixed playlist which got the crowd behind them from the off. Really enjoyed it in the end, which I wasn't expecting up until they came on the stage!

[Haymaker]

I despised The Gallows,

A terrible band who never seemed to understand there is such a thing a "bass". All top end and *****! :agree:

[deeks01]

After much moaning on this thread I actually picked up a ticket for Stone Roses at Glasgow Green on eBay for 85 quid. Not too bad , was expecting to have to take a major hit in order to procure one! Roll on next June it's gonna be some night! Also I got stereophonics tickets and a ticket for the view the night afterwards! Might be seeing the rifles in a few weeks at king tuts as well and I am going to Dumfries to see Steve Craddock sometime in the next few weeks , canny mind the date as its my cousin got me the tickets! This along with Manchester for Courteeners/View and possibly Kilmarnock grand hall for the proclaimers. Busy end to the year after all - happy days!

[Sexton]

The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster have reformed and touring as the original group. Fingers crossed a few nights are announced for up here. Seen them in the venue a few years back and in the hive about 2 years ago. Fantastic group.

[stoneyburn hibs]

Tickets arrived yesterday for Simple Minds at Newcastle in march , counting down the days to this as im so looking forward to this.

[cocopops1875]

Went to see Carter USM at King Tuts on Thursday im a huge fan and was just buzzing for it Fantasic set which lasted nearly 2 hours also they were supported by the Frank & Walters who were very decent
Then last night I went to the Voodoo Rooms to see Chris Helme (the Seahorses singer) played a great mix of new and old and had a great interaction with the crowd 2 great gigs in 2 days :thumbsup:

[Green Man]

I was at Carter as well, it was one of my favourite ever gigs. They seemed to really enjoy it as well, everyone just had a great time. I realised last night it's 20 years since I first saw them!

[KingFranck]

Next gig for me is Stiff Little Fingers and Spear of Destiny on same bill at the Picture House. Seen both bands loads of times but never together can't wait.
Inspiral Carpets next March too

[Baldy Foghorn]

Saw Christy Moore last week, what a performer........

Couple of gigs in November, then Inspiral Carpets and Stone Roses next year....Can't wait....

Voodoo rooms gets some pretty decent gigs but dont really advertise, my mates a dedicated gig goer so is on top of these things (or they would just pass me by ) saw Miles and Erica of The Wonder Stuff there too Earlier in the year :thumbsup:

[Green Man]

I saw them at the Livingston Forum in 1992, on the Love Album tour. I also saw them at the Queens Hall in 94 or 95 and the Venue in 96 or 97.

Do you have a tattoo the same as your avatar? If so I saw you there.

[MrRobot]

Im just back from Warped Tour in London and that was insane!

Hope you enjoy it - I think they're every bit as good (well almost) as when I first saw them 30+ years ago. Faye just seems to improve with age!!

[degenerated]

ABSOLUTELY gutted, had tickets but had to come down to work in Somerset so had to give tickets.. Been texted to say they were brilliant tonight. Thanks

Black Sabbath in April in Auckland to add to my list :agree:

[hibbybob]

Started off slowly with some strange song choices (Buddy Holly - True love Ways!!!) but really got into the swing after about half an hour.

Strange tho - we got there at 7.50 (tickets said doors open 7.30) and the support had already played and gone. SD's came on at 8pm so quite a few people will have missed a good part of the gig!

Seems that they brought it all forward by an hour but only informed some of those with tickets! Pretty poor!

[Frazerbob]

Just bought VIP tickets for James and Echo & The Bunnymen at the O2 Newcastle for the wife's Christmas. She's a huge James fan and I've heard they are very good live. Sound check and a meet and greet included. Echo & Bunnymen have been on my wish list for years so looking forward to it.

Being a HUGE Depeche Mode fan, next year is their latest World tour. Just annouced the European stadium leg so far before they head to the States and South America and back to Europe for winter arena tour. So fa I'm booked up for the opening gig in Tel Aviv, Athens, London O2, Rome Olympic Stadium, Vilius and Minsk. Can not wait, Depeche tours are amazing!

Also got Simple Minds in Aberdeen in April.

You should know Depeche Mode personally by now so can you please tell them to include Australia / NZ on these "world" tours? They didn't even come here when supposedly touring the "universe"!! :greengrin

I have had that before as well, went to see Iron Maiden at Earls Court and Trivvium were supporting. My friend was a HUGE Trivvium fan and didnt want to miss them, even so we turned up at 8pm, 30 mins after doors and the PA was playing the Maiden walk on tune! Still find that weird but it meant maiden played for about 3 solid hours which was great.

[YehButNoBut]

The only 2 I have got tickets for are

The Black Keys, SECC, Dec 8th
Biffy Clyro, SECC, April 1st.

Want to get tickets for Download next June 16th but only for the Sunday to see the superb Rammstein but no day tickets on sale yet only full weekend.

Looking forward to The Black Keys on Saturday, and today have added Bruce Springsteen at Hampden June 18th, last "Boss" gig at Hampden 4 years ago was a superb night.

Tickets go on general sale tomorrow at 9am if anyone interested, as do The Specials for the Barrowlands in May.

I'll try mate lol. I'd love an excuse to go to Melbourne!

They only came to Scotland for he first time in 24 years on the last tour (afer years of badgering). They seem to play it safe and stick to tried and tested venues in Europe, US and South America. The next tour seems to be less gigs, sticking to the huge stadiums. Easier money I suppose. I very much doubt they will ever venture to Oz. In fact, I would recon this will be their last but one tour.

On another note, I see Simple Minds are currently in Oz. Any idea what size of venues they're playing?

[hibbybob]

Off to see Squeeze at O2 Academy in Glasgow tomorrow.

Haven't seen Squeeze before so don't know what to expect but so many hits to play!

At the end of the gig they will be selling "live cd's from the gig" at a stall at the back of the venue :wink:

[seanraff07]

At Christmas I'm buying tickets for The Fratellis at Barrowlands and Inspiral Carpets at Liquid Rooms.

Anyone else think £40 for The Specials is a rip-off?

[Steve-O]

I'll try mate lol. I'd love an excuse to go to Melbourne!

They only came to Scotland for he first time in 24 years on the last tour (afer years of badgering). They seem to play it safe and stick to tried and tested venues in Europe, US and South America. The next tour seems to be less gigs, sticking to the huge stadiums. Easier money I suppose. I very much doubt they will ever venture to Oz. In fact, I would recon this will be their last but one tour.

On another note, I see Simple Minds are currently in Oz. Any idea what size of venues they're playing?

http://musicfeeds.com.au/news/simple-minds-devo-the-church-australian-tour-2012/

Looks like they're doing a mixture of smaller shows and vineyard shows. I wanted to go to their show in Auckland but couldn't make it happen, and would've also preferred to see them in some indoor place anyway. I know those shows in Melbourne and Sydney are reasonable size - I think that Palais in Melbourne is maybe about the size of the Playhouse.

Absolutely awesome live band :agree:

I've just been given a couple of tickets for the Slam Dunk festival at the University of Leeds for this coming May and I'm really looking forward to it - not quite as good a lineup as last year so far but a large number of bands still to be announced. Loved that so many bands I love played such an intimate festival, which really is targeted at quite a niche market in all honesty.

Also have Finch, with support from Mallory Knox at Brixton Academy next month which I'm really looking forward to :agree:

[Haymaker]

The Bouncing Souls scott. Love 'em.

[Sylar]

The Bouncing Souls scott. Love 'em.

How I Spent My Summer Vacation and Anchors Aweigh were 2 staples of my high school days - used to listen to them a lot around the same time I was into bands like Millencolin, NOFX and Allister (to name a few).

Was a good era :greengrin

[Haymaker]

I love all their albums, seen them so many times I cant count! Been a huge fan of NoFx since around 1994, millencolin too! As you say, a great era back then, Fat Wreck and Epitaph sample cds were great!

The Courteeners this Saturday, can't wait!

The wife has bought me tickets for Deacon Blue at the Albert Hall for my 40th birthday. They just happen to be her favourite band. Cheeky!

[Oscar T Grouch]

Went to see Victorian Trout Conspiracy at the Annex last Thursday, great band and pumping gig, but they did a number half way through the set, I'm sure they said Matt Done was in the audience and started a song about him. Was anyone else there to confirm or deny this? I had had a few pints by the time it happened but my mate was there and heard the same thing:confused:

Also, anyone else going to download this year?

If I win the euro millions tonight, I'd love to go to Download - Rammstein are headlining Sunday!

[Sylar]

Was at the O2 Brixton Academy on Friday for the 10 Year Reunion of What It Is To Burn tour with Finch, supported by Mallory Knox and Cytota.

Mallory Knox recently released their debut album (Signals) which was pretty damned good and they're every bit as impressive live. Really enjoyed their short set.

Finch took the gig to a whole new level, playing WIITB in its entirety and adding in some of their older EP songs, as well as Worms of the Earth (Underworld soundtrack). Flawless live, superb energy and it brought out every emotion in a superb crowd.

[YehButNoBut]

One of the best live acts you will ever see, saw them in Newcastle & Birmingham last year and will see them twice in April this year.

In Lisbon on 16th & Madrid on 21st, can't wait, have they started to sell day only tickets for Download yet?

Hurts at the Garage in Glasgow last night were absolutely superb. It's a long time since I came away from a gig on such a high. I don't mind admiting to having a bit of a man crush on Theo!

Mark my words, that will be the last time I see this band in such a small venue. They are going to be huge. They're already playing to full arenas around Europe and hopefully the UK will get aboard the bandwagon now.

As a massive Depeche Mode fan, Hurts would be the perfect tour support for the up-coming stadium World tour.

I really like Hurts, haven't listened to the second album yet, but the first was very good.

Why would you hope for that they start playing arenas in the uk though? I'd much rather see my favourite bands in smaller venues than in arenas.

Because they deserve it. I agree, it's great to see bands in wee venues. To be up close and get the banter between fans and band is great but you don't get the production levels in the Garage that you do in an arena. They will easily be able to fill an arena stage, in fact they already do in Germany, the Baltics, Poland etc.

Thoroughly recommend the new album. It's a bit less poppy and bit darker than Happiness. Good progression IMO.

[Carheenlea]

Staying in Belfast tonight and The Outcasts are playing in Auntie Annies just round from hotel. Terri Hooley billed as dj'ing although I don't see any decks.. Enjoyed Good Vibrations earlier this week so a wee bonus to finish the Easter break away. Place is swarming with grizzled old Belfast punks who time has not been kind to it must be said!

Do they play the same set list at each concert, or do they vary them?

[H18sry]

Do they play the same set list at each concert, or do they vary them?

Normally the same set, it's a bit like watching Hibs you turn up and you know what you are going to get. but in the case of a gig you can get a happy sing song. :greengrin

[Frazerbob]

Do they play the same set list at each concert, or do they vary them?

Last tour they played around 21 or 22 songs each night and around 35 songs over the tour. They tend to mix it up if the play more than one night at the same venue and they make a few changes between the different legs of the tour. They have 10 or so songs that feature in every tour, add 4 or 5 from the album they're promoting and throw in a few suprises.

[yeezus.]

I've been to a few Wolfe Tones concerts in Aberdeen. They play the same songs in the same order and the place is always littered with Septic fans but it's a decent night out all the same.

James last night at the O2 Academy in Newcastle where superb and took me back to my Floral Riot and Catch days (for punters of my vintage). 2 hour set with a few brand new tracks. So new that Tim Booth had to read the lyrics and the band made a few **** ups. I have to say, it was good to watch a band taking a few risks rather than just playing all the fans' favourites. Going to the sound check was pretty cool as well. They played a few songs and had a 30 minute chat, including inviting an 8 year old boy, who just started learning the drums, up on the stage for a shot of the drums. It was also great to see Echo The Bunnymen at last, who were the support. Very cool, alternative 80's stuff!

So, in recent months I've ssen The Killers, Stone Roses, Simple Minds, Hurts, James, Echo & The Bunnymen, Big Country, Deacon Blue, Emile Sandé, Noel Gallacher's HFB and a few more. All have been very good and some outstanding (Killiers and Hurts in particular). Next up, in just over 3 weeks, it's the headline act. DEPECHE MODE in Tel Aviv & Athens. NOT LONG NOW!!!!

Yes, their first gig. That is unless you were at a Vic Galloway night at the Electric Circus a few months before where they secretly played under the pseudonym 'Shark Week'. Lies remains their best track in my eyes, however Song by Toad's rant about the lunacy of their hype still stands true.

not a gig as such but of to eastern electrics in august in london. mental line up http://www.easternelectrics.com/

will be djing at one of the afterpartys too :greengrin

[Frazerbob]

I've got Chvrches next Wednesday at The Garage, and The Twilight Sad at the Lemon Tree.

However you Edinburgh hombres should definitely go and see Meursault and Withered Hand at the Liquid Room next Friday. Gutted I can't go.

How were Chvrches?

[Sylar]

Funeral for a Friend are playing at my work on Thursday night and tickets are only £10 - yes please! :aok:

Awesome gig. Surrey Union is pretty small so it was a brilliant, intimate atmosphere with a lively crowd. Support by both Polar and Fly This For Me who were also decent.

FFAF are playing again in the centre of Guildford tonight but I have plans or I'd go see them again.

[matty_f]

Anyone going to the Stone Roses at Glasgow Green?

[Mango Man]

Went to see Victorian Trout Conspiracy at the Annex last Thursday, great band and pumping gig, but they did a number half way through the set, I'm sure they said Matt Done was in the audience and started a song about him. Was anyone else there to confirm or deny this? I had had a few pints by the time it happened but my mate was there and heard the same thing:confused:

Also, anyone else going to download this year?

haha, the trumpet/keys player used to be in my band, not many folk like him about. And also my cousin Matt Dunn jams with them, that's who would have got a shout out.

[jabis]

Neil Young and Crazy Horse comes ever closer :aok:

My best mate went to the University of Surrey, had a few good nights in the union! Always had gigs on, great place. Another friend used to do DIY punk/hardcore shows nearby too, dont remember those much!

[Calvin]

How were Chvrches?
Absolutely brilliant. Really looking forward to their album in the Autumn. The Twilight Sad were super the following night too.

Gutted that I'm not going to Brew at the Bog next Saturday so think I'll go to the Big Beach Ball, mainly just for the Jetpacks.

My mate runs Snafu and Athenium who are puting on Big Beach Balll. (He's a Hibby too) Tickets are apparently selling well. If you go, make sure to see Little Kicks. They're superb!

Of course, I've seen them loads of times and still get Steven in to do acoustic sets in the bar quite often. Still a bit gutted that he stopped doing regular DHC nights, was just about the only time I'd be glad to venture into a nightclub!

It's amazing to be honest - we had FFAF this week, We Are The Ocean are playing next weekend and Kids In Glass Houses, Mallory Knox and Bring Me The Horizon are all set to play here later in the year!

There are a few venues in the town which have regular rock nights and again, host many live acts throughout the year.

Public Service Broadcasting at the Caves, F***ed Up in Glasgow and Art Brut at the Electric Circus!

PSB at the Caves will be amazing. I'm seeing them at the Lemon Tree - they were amazing last time up here. F'd up are great too but won't make that; however my holidays are already in for Art Brut. Eddie Argos is a legend and j can't recall them playing Edinburgh since I saw them at The Hive of all places in what must have been 2008!

Hive was the last time they played Edinburgh. It's a shame that the same night Kid Canavarel are playing with ballboy. Saw PSB last time, they were brilliant and I'm really looking forward to F***ed Up, David Comes To Life is a fantastic album.

What a night, never skanked like that before.

[Carheenlea]

A busy week. Saw Dirty Beaches at Nice n Sleazy on Tuesday, his first visit to Scotland and it was blistering. Really recommend checking him out if you have not done so yet. Clashed with The Fall at ABC and Public Service Broadcasting at Caves, but I think we made the right call.
Specials tonight at The Barrowlands. No Neville Staples this time, and no Jerry Dammers, but it should still be a good one.

[oramhibee]

Don't know if anyone would like them but Bombay Bicycle Club are playing at the HMV Picture House on Friday 7th June. Decent band in my opinion.

[StevieT]

If anyone is in the Dundee area on Saturday night then The Underground Jam are well worth a look. They are at Beatgenerator Live.

Where the hell is that? I lived in Dundee for 8 years and I've never heard of that place.

Funeral for a Friend return to Guildford in June - 3rd time seeing them in Guildford in the space of 2 months!

Going to see Savages tomorrow night and The XX on Saturday. Should both be interesting to see live.

Just around the corner from Fat Sam's and next to Clarke's Bar

[Frazerbob]

Next up for me is Depeche at the 02 in London. 2 nights, Tuesday & Wednesay after the cup final. Hopefully I'll be so blootered from the victory parade the night before it'll be touch and go if I make the flight!

After a triumphant start to the tour in front of 50,000 in Tel Aviv and 40,000 in Athens last week, it'll be good to see them in an indoor venue again, even if it is still huge.

How were the DM gigs? Any particular highlights? Good luck getting your flights to London, I'm going to see them in Munich on the Saturday after the final and if we win I don't fancy my changes of making my flight :-)

They were on really good form. Dave in particular was in very high jinx. In Athens he was even signing autographs from the stage, not like him at all. Set list follows the usual format but with 2 or 3 real suprises and a few great remix versions of old favourites.

The venue in Athens was a complete joke though. 40,000 punters entered the park, which is an hours drive from Athens, through one tiny entrance about the size of a double door. I genuinely felt that a major disaster was very close.

Enjoy Munich, you can't beat Depeche in Germany!

[Frazerbob]

By the way, if you're going to the Glasgow gig in November, get along to Classic Grand after the show.

It's a great album, annoyed I missed them this time. Going to see Bleached at the Art School on Tuesday!

[Calvin]

They were good live, great tempo to them. Not sold on the Berlin crowds though!

However the XX yesterday were just super.

Don't think that I have another gig planned now until Glastonbury now :(

[yeezus.]

I'm praying that Morrissey will do another British tour next year. I was gutted that I was working last July when he was in Edinburgh.

This year I'm treating myself to Download! Anyone know if there are buses going from Edinburgh or Glasgow?

[MrRobot]

Who?


Absolutely awesome live band :agree:

I've just been given a couple of tickets for the Slam Dunk festival at the University of Leeds for this coming May and I'm really looking forward to it - not quite as good a lineup as last year so far but a large number of bands still to be announced. Loved that so many bands I love played such an intimate festival, which really is targeted at quite a niche market in all honesty.

Also have Finch, with support from Mallory Knox at Brixton Academy next month which I'm really looking forward to :agree:

Pierce the Veil, Sleeping With Sirens, Memphis May Fire, Tek-One, Yashin and the word alive. Pretty sweet line up.


Just back from seeing sleeping with sirens last light and bring me the horizon a few weeks back.

[geordie_hibs]

1-6: Pastels - Glasgow CCA
8-6: Camera Obscura - Newcastle Uni
10-6: Neil Young - Newcastle Arena
20-6: Trembling Bells - Newcastle Morden Tower


looks a damn fine month to me....

[H18sry]

15-6 Stone Roses,The View,Jake Bugg and Primal Scream
22-6 Beady Eye
28-6 Glasvegas

Not a bad month Just a pity The View at the picture house is the same night as Beady Eye.

[deeks01]

Surprised I haven't seen anyone post about the Mark Knopfler gig at the SECC a few weeks back! One of my icons as a guitarist & he lived up to my expectations , absolutely cracking night! A bit of a change of pace from The View at Dundee the weekend before!

Next two gigs are the stone roses at GlasgowGreen which looks rather like a good day at a festival to me despite being a one off gig! Third time seeing the roses (never thought I'd get to say that) and seen the view loads of times but Jake Bugg will be new for me so hope he is decent live! Hope Primal Scream are as brilliant as I hope they are going to be! After that I have Beady Eye at the 02 ABC in Glasgow. Now that is bound to be some night as well!

Anyone doing the pre/post gig parties for GG? Seems to be loads kicking about!

[.Sean.]

Kinda buzzing for the Roses now :partyhibb

[yeezus.]

I'm hoping there will be another Hibby at the Wickerman?

I doubt it though :rolleyes:

[Green Man]

Anyone seen stage times for the Roses? I'm guessing it might be an eariler curfew with it being outdoors but I'm a bit concerened about making it back for the last train to Edinburgh.

[Mark1875]

Think it will be normal 11pm curfew. Doors don't open till late afternoon, 4pm iirc, plus Glasgow green doesn't have moany neighbours to deal with unlike meadowbank and murrayfield.

Dam just posting that makes me sad that the gigs at meadowbank got shelved. Apart from the festival season those were my favourite gigs of the year. Especially the year they had Radiohead/beck on the tues and Muse/MCR and Biffy on the thurs.

The last train to Edinburgh from Queen St is 11:30pm, if you get away before the crowds you should be ok.

That`s a pity, always disappointing when gigs don`t live up to high expectations of previous experiences. Believe me, I know all about it - I`m a Fall fan..:wink:

Last week a few of us enjoyed very much veteran Canadian prog-punk band NoMeansNo at a well filled Electric Circus, a fabulous set full of energy and some light hearted humour. What made the night that even more enjoyable was support by way of young Scottish band Fat Goth. They really were outstanding, and another exciting Scottish band to keep an eye out for. All in all the perfect way to banish those Cup Final blues that loomed for a couple days post Hampden!
Has to be said, the Electric Circus is getting some great artists to play this last year and in the future :agree:

Yeah I tend not to be too good at getting away sharp from gigs and knowing my mate he'll want to get right down the front :greengrin

As a side note, I've just listened to the new Primal Scream album, it's really good. I'm possibly more excited about seeing them than the Roses.

[yeezus.]

They were great thanks. we were in Munich for about 72 hours and it rained, mostly torrential, for about 66 of those but incredibly it stopped for the three hours we were in the stadium :-) was in the rear standing bit and I'm not the tallest so it was a bit likewatching a video for me at times but the atmosphere was great. really looking forward to Glasgow as it will feel like a tiny venue in comparison. have booked a hotel in Glasgow and definitely going along to the after show thing you mentioned, is it ticket in advance or do you just turn up. cheers.

Just turn up, free entry with your gig ticket. It will probably be open pre-gig as well. Most folk I know are staying at Jury's, which is very near Classic Grand. Really looking forward to it, looks like it's going to be a great venue and the indoor arena shows are always better than the big stadium gigs.

Deadpunk? Toyed with the idea but going to opt for the UK Vans Warped Tour at Alexandra Palace on the 16th and 17th of November instead.

Billy Talent, Rise Against, Anberlin, Memphis May Fire, Coheed and Cambria and Yellowcard to name but a few.

[Hibby_Paul]

Help please. How do you get into the front pit at the stone roses? Do you need a special ticket or is it first cone first served,

Heaton Park gigs last year were first come first served. You got a wristband so could then leave front pit and wander around back etc after and get back in. VIP tickets just have you access to special bars and stuff. When I saw Coldplay at Glasgow green it was same set up.

Might be worth just going early in case that is case as you can then buy drink etc and relax at back then head back in! Perhaps even 2 circles at front if small VIP in operation.

Having seen roses at heaton would def recommend being as close to front as few folk complained who were further back that sound didnt travel well.

I'm going too. Lineup isn't great but will probably see

Primal Scream
Dreadzone
The Enemy
Bombskare
Ok social club

And after seeing them on Glastonbury, Nile Rodgers and Chic will be good for a the sunny afternoon slot.
