Who are Colonel Mustard and the Dijon 5? They seem to be on every festival line up I’ve seen recently.

They’re a novelty band from Glasgow. Big following. I fluctuate between finding them funny and extremely annoying.

[Frazerbob]

Got tickets for Inhaler at The Barras in October. Really enjoying their debut album. Surprised they had t sold out, especially at £15 a ticket.

[patch1875]

Think for the rest of the year I have

Suede
The Wedding Present
Public Service Broadcasting
The Jesus &Mary Chain

[CropleyWasGod]

Just booked for the Mackenzies/Filthy Tongues at the Barrowland.

They were the last bands I saw pre-COVID. :greengrin

We've got Black Stone Cherry at the Usher Hall in September, delayed from last year, as yet we still don't know about indoor events and how many people will be allowed to be there, fingers crossed.

[Dalianwanda]

Im supposed to fly to sheffield for a festival in October. I thought those attending might have to show a negative test of something (its quite a small venue & pretty sweaty in certain rooms, going on previous years). Now it looks like there might be no restrictions Im having second thoughts. The line ups amazing though so Im not counting anything out yet.

some of the line up : 96 Back (Live) / Alex Mclean / Andy Stott (Live) / Anz / AYA (Live) / Aurora Halal / Batu / Ben UFO / Diessa / Displace / Gabber Modus Operandi (3D) / Helena Hauff / Hyperdub Showcase / Ifeoluwa / India Jordan / Joy Orbison / Juliana Huxtable / Kode 9 / Konx-Om-Pax / Loraine James (Live) / Lo Shea / Mark Fell / Midland / Minsky Rock (Live) / Nkisi (3D) / Nyege Nyege Showcase (3D) / Pattern + Push / Phatworld (3D Live) / Rian Treanor / SHERELLE / Skee Mask / Tekkers / Tim Reaper / The Beatriarchy / VTSS (Live) / Winston Hazel / Wub Club / Yes No Wave Music

[CropleyWasGod]

Just bought tickets for Arab Strap in Dunfermline on 3rd September.

I was booked to Le Guess Who festival in Utrecht in Nov..Just seen all clubs to be shut till end of Nov so looks like that trips knocked on the head 😭

So thought i’d cheer myself by booking Arab Strap in Dublin….to find that’s cancelled too 🤐

[Hibby70]

Maximo Park next week at Liquid Room, I'd completely forgotten about it.

I assume it's same rules as nightclubs in terms of masks and drinking/dancing

[G15 Hibs]

Decided that I'd better check all the gigs I've tickets for that have either been re-arranged from last year or that I'd bought thinking there was little chance of them going ahead but desperate to go to anything. So, before the end of 2021 I've got:

Black Midi, Fontaines DC, Mogwai, Sleaford Mods and Black Country, New Road

January to March 2022 is:

Peter Hook, Idles, Dry Cleaning and Yard Act

Unfortunately all the Friday and Saturday gigs have been rearranged for midweek. Urg.

[tricky]

Got a ticket available for New Order at heaton park Manchester on September 10th if anyone fancies it

Face value or open to offers

[O'Rourke3]

Got John Grant at the Barrowlands in a fortnight after 2 gigs in Edinburgh posponed last year and no suitable date/venue. Del Amitri in Perth a bit later in the month.

Reckon the bar will be busy then.

Not sure if I'm looking forward to it or not 😬


Edit: really enjoyed it. Not that busy and probably 50/50 in terms o those wearing a mask and those standing with a pint and not. Good atmosphere - great to listen to live music again.

I have 2 spare tickets for The Specials at both The Barrowlands on Monday & The Usher Hall on Tuesday. Give me a shout if interested.

Hectic few months coming up…

Transmit next Saturday, not going all day as the line up is poor. Heading later on for Primal Scream and Liam Gallagher so it’ll be pints in Glasgow before that

‘An evening with’ Rick Witter from Shed 7 and Clint Boon at Dr Bells 29th September

DMA’s at the Corn Exchange October 19th

Booze & Glory at Bannermans, 21st November

Shed 7 at the Barras on 27th November, same day as EH6 Fest though so may opt for that instead

Libertines at Usher Hall, 1st December, same night we’re at home to the Huns 😩

The Specials at the Usher Hall last night was bouncing. First gig for me since COVID hit and it was great. Done all the classics mixed in with their new album and a great version of Marley’s Get up Stand up. Never got to sleep til 3am cos I was buzzing so much from it. Does mean today at work is going to be a long day. Well worth it though.

Leeds isn’t that much better. You’re way better picking a mid sized festival as you’ll still get a few big bands but with a lot less fannies.

Most folk wore them to get in then took them off.No bother. Barrowlands now requires passport for entry. They organsied the queue really well. Ticket pre check, temp taken, passport inspected (glanced) and tickets scanned.
One to note. Cash only at all bars. Not sure whether thats all the time or they had problems on the night. Very unusual.

Brilliant being back at a gig. Enthusiastic crown and fortunately John Grant maybe not the artiste of choice for the coked up neds, which is surprising given the huge amount of electro/techno in the set. I would think many of the club djs would have fun with some of his material. Maybe they do, but since I've not been in a club for decades, wouldnt know.

I've been fortunate enough to have seen most iterations of the specials. The original line up in 82, the mid 90s version, the 2009 reunion one and the one just now. All have been excellent though the 2009 gig at the O2 in Glasgow is one of the best gigs I've been to. Absolutely bouncing that night.

I was also at Transmit in 2018 (again, for Liam Gallagher!) and I never found it near as bad but then again spent most of the day in VIP. The dafties seem to be getting younger and younger and fuller and fuller of the ching, but I think thats a reflection of society these days

Day 1 of the Isle of Wight Festival. Started with Sophie Ellis Bexter. That lassie has done well out of Covid. The Big Top was bursting at the seems. Just a big party. Then a few local bands and a Madness tribute, who were great fun.
Finally Scouting for Girls. Not a band I could say I liked or name more than a couple of hits but thoroughly enjoyed them. Just great pop and had the huge tent in the palm of their hands. I was surprised how many tracks I knew, which was a strap line for a Crowded House compilation 20 odd years ago. Coincidentally, they reminded a lot of early Crowded House. Great fun, unpretentious pop.

Arab Strap at Dunfermline was standing. Most people naturally kept their distance. There was only 1 guy who,.clearly a big fan, who was away wi the goalie 😁 The space around him got progressively bigger as the night went on.

Heres a review of the No Bounds festival https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/oct/18/no-bounds-festival-review-sheffields-electro-industrial-heart-is-still-beating?fbclid=IwAR1Vq7j5O4wimXtN1b61ZNRwZbJCq1s15 3eOWQZK_j41OFy2o5EtghSx9Q4

. So glad I flew over for it. Partly because of the line up & how wonderful its been in the past but also because it gave me real hope of how quickly things could go back to normal. There were no tests no checks no restrictions (I did do a test every morning though just for a wee bit of peace of mind). Everyone so friendly and just happy that it was happening again. The Black Dog, Aurora Halal, Helena Hauff, Julia Huxtable & Midland were the highlights but to be honest the line up was just class & everyone amazing. After two years wait just delighted something Id loved so much in the past could be just as good in the current situation.

As a side Id really recommend checking out the album by Dublins Silverbacks if you like DC Fontains

Thinking about seeing The Fallen State in Bannerman's next Wednesday.

Somewhat different to the music most on here seem to listen to, I'm off to see Salt House in Glasgow tonight.

Enjoyed it last night but I was really only there to take my 17 year old son along. The band were very good though. He had a great time in the moshpit (his words..) at the front. I was more into sipping my pint and tapping my toes :-)

Fontaine’s on Friday with my boy and lustforleith is next up!

[CallumLaidlaw]

Inhaler at The Barras tonight were superb and the young crowd were bonkers. I wasn’t even the oldest person there [emoji1787]. I suspect that’ll be the last time I see them for £15 a ticket!

Saw inhaler at TRNSMT and they were excellent. On that note, also saw The Lathums at TRNSMT who also impressed and have since had a number 1 album. They’re doing the liquid rooms and pjs in Dunfermline in December as part of a tour they’ve had arranged for over a year so is a long time sold out. Checked Ticketmaster 3 days running and eventually managed to get 2 tickets for Liquid rooms. Also £15 each, and also likely to be the last time their tickets will be that price.

Loved that gig, they were outstanding last night. Was looking forward to that for months and they didn’t disappoint at all.

It was a brilliant gig. Coming Up is such a great album, I had mentioned years ago I wanted to see them play it in full so I was delighted when the tour was announced. The rest of the set was amazing as well, the three songs from the first album followed by New Generation were the perfect end to the show.

Its funny that eh? I've enjoyed watching his Fish on Friday now and again, I've always thought he comes across as a top guy, funny and knowleagable, but although I'd like to, I can't get into his music. Just not my cup of tea.

I've got to wait til November til they make it to these shores again but have been very jealous seeing my mates see them around the UK. Couldn't agree more about the new album... think they can just write off Ultra Mono as a third album anomaly.

Got Genesis Owusu in Sydney and Brisbane next month - not my usual genre of music but loved his debut album and has been good to see him getting some pop in the UK too. Think an Aussie Young Fathers for a cheap comparison.

I'm surprised Yard Act are still at Mono. They were relatively unknown when we got the tickets last year but they're doing pretty well now. Thought it might have been moved to a bigger venue. Quite happy to see them at a wee place like that, I've only ever seen local bands, mostly featuring folk I know, there before.

The one we’re going to is on at The Caves (Edinburgh) - long sold out but maybe the case with most of the dates and not as easy to move lots of venues?

So much choice at the moment as artists return to live performing, and our group of like minded music fans have added another few dates yesterday with Flat Worms at Broadcast in June, Richard Dawson & Circle at Summerhall in July and King Khan & The Shrines at Voodoo Rooms in April.

We were in the Aragon on Byres Road for a couple of pints before heading over to the QMU. One of my mates noticed the Dry Cleaning guitarist was there too. He must have been there until about half eight (we kept an eye out so we knew we were safe to stay) and was on stage at 9. Seemed very into it during the gig!

Nice one - they actually played there as part of their 50th anniversary tour in 2013. I know because I had a ticket and sold it 🙈

That doesn’t take away from how good a time you’ll have. They were still putting on a great show when I last seen them in 2018. Seen them 4 times now and haven’t yet convinced myself that I’ll be going back to see them without Charlie (Charlie watts before anyone is in with a wise crack 😉).. but I probably will eventually!

Missed the Supersuckers gig last night at Bannermans due to a commitment I couldn’t change.

Not seen them since 2003!

Sorry not a Gig and don’t want to hijack the thread, but just woke up to the sad news that Taylor Hawkins, Foo Fighters Drummer has died unexpectedly aged 50!

Down in Scarborough for two day punk festival. A few pubs last night were rammed with Huns blasting out Simply The Best on the karaoke, with their choice additions. Wondered if there was a friendly or bounce game today. Turned out that there was an Orange March this morning through the town centre...

I've got Jah Wobble, @ the Voodoo Rooms on the 15 April and Elvis Costello in Glasgow on the 7th June. 👌

Sam Fender was brilliant last night.

That Hydro needs to sort itself out though. The bars were a shambles.

My condolences. Was in Southport a few years back, on one of the marching days, and the pubs were stowed out with them singing their usual bile.

April sees Nick Mason, Carl Palmer and LAU.

(Just as soon as I kick this covid thing).

I saw Dead Can Dance at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow last night. Didn't know what to expect, but the missus is a big fan so I'd got her tickets for Christmas. Really enjoyed it, quite hypnotic. Female singer has a remarkable voice.

Got tickets yesterday for Black Country, New Road at Tut's in May. Again, don't know what to expect as they'll be playing all new material they've written since the original singer left earlier in the year. Had tickets for their gig in December which was cancelled.

[grunt]

Just got ticket for Ozric Tentacles and Gong in Glasgow in November.

[CropleyWasGod]

Also in the Just Got category 😀

Ezra Furman at the Leith Theatre. Excited for 2 reasons.She had to cancel her last gig 2 years ago, so this is overdue
Also haven't been at a gig there in decades.

[SChibs]

Was anyone else as Tash Sultana at the Usher Hall on Saturday? Great gig. Hopefully they come back to Edinburgh in the next few years

You going on the Saturday or the Sunday?

I got tickets for the Sunday when it was announced, but then they added the Saturday, which I'd much rather have had!

The Smile @ Usher Hall on 1st June

GLASTONBURY

Rage Against the Machine @ Leeds in August

Chemical Bros @ Connect in August

So so happy we are back and able to go to gigs again!!

[HibeeLR]

I have tickets to see Foals @ Usher Hall on 20th April. Been rescheduled twice since pandemic started so was looking forward to it but booked a last minute holiday which clashes and will unfortunately miss. Gutted but holiday tops it I'm afraid. Not sure rules as to selling on here but they are available (can remove this part if selling is frowned upon) :D
