Pixies were great in Glasgow a few weeks ago giving this one a miss since it’s so close.

Frank Carter and the Pistols were superb last night. Great atmosphere and he was a great frontman obviously loving the chance to play with them.

If people haven’t heard of it already, you should sign up for Show Film First online. It’s free to sign up. You get emails for things that aren’t selling out and offered the chance to buy for cheaper.

I got these tickets for £7.50 each. They’re still on sale on Ticketmaster for 10x that!

Yep, 1st two were decent, they've released a steady list of albums but a change in the music scene hasn't helped many indie/punk type bands, there's very little airplay for them nowadays, hence why some are surprised they're still going.

Arab Strap were superb in Edinburgh last night, you’re in for a treat. It was the first time I’d seen them as well, not sure how I’d gone so long without seeing them.

Seen them in St. Andrews at the start of the tour. Seen them a few times now and I do think this tour is possibly the best I’ve seen them.

[marinello59]

Seen them in St. Andrews at the start of the tour. Seen them a few times now and I do think this tour is possibly the best I’ve seen them.

I have to agree. The Philophobia tour last year was excellent but the band they have put together for this one has cranked things up to a new level. It helps that their latest two albums are the best of their career as well.

Absolutely love PSB.

The Go! Team are bewilderingly under rated IMO. Live they’re one of the best bands around, full of huge energy, lots of really good songs across seven albums and outstandingly talented musicians, almost all of the band switching between numerous instruments through the night. So much energy.

I was there on Friday for the Enemy, we were in the middle 2nd row, had to move to the side when the mad mosh pit started, not a place for a 65 year old and his wife, good gig though, also a wee shout out to The Subways who I thought were very good too.

[marinello59]

The Wedding Present smashed it in the Liquid Rooms last night , possibly my gig of the year. They played Bizarro in full but it was Bizarro on steroids, Gedge ain’t slowing down.

Anyone tempted by the Phonics in Glagsow next Summer Sessions? I last seen them in 2005 and I'm not a massive fan of some of their newer stuff, but I'd imagine they'll put on one hell of a show.

I'll see them at the Isle of Wight Festival in June. They're headlining one of the days. Not a massive fan but no doubt they'll be worthy festival headliners and another band to tick off.

Still to go this year I've got Kasabian, Paul Heaton both at the giant Weedgie space ship, the K's at Blackpool Tower, Wonder Stuff at the O2 and Dirty Harry at La Belle.

Saw Nick Harper at the Voodoo Room (Speakeasy) on Saturday night.

What a guitarist, his playing is virtuoso level, the voice is soulful.

Sadly, I counted around 32 people in the room. It staggers me that someone so talented can't get a decent audience in such a small venue (Tickets were under £20.00).

He's such a friendly, humble guy. He joined us at our table post gig and had a chat about brothers.

Give him a listen, the guy deserves more recognition.

Next up, the poet laureate of rock 'n' roll. The voice of the promise of the '60s counterculture. The guy who forced folk into bed with rock, who donned makeup in the '70s and disappeared into a haze of substance abuse, who emerged to find Jesus, and who suddenly shifted gears, releasing some of the strongest music of his career beginning in the late '90s. Ladies and gentlemen, Bob Dylan!

I saw Deep Purple in Amsterdam last week. They did play a lot of songs from their new album, which were unfamiliar. However there was still a fair number of the older songs, played well. Just don't expect Ian Gillan to sing Child in Time. Jefferson Starship started slowly but from White Rabbit onwards they were good.

Anchor Lane at Ballroom Voodoo Rooms Sunday was awesome as expected.

The Virginmarys at The Attic last night was just brilliant as they always are. Support band Torus from Milton Keynes we're also very good, great night had.

Did anyone see the Afro-Celts at Summerhall recently?

I missed it, but have been a big fan for a long time. They've just announced (quite brutally, IMO) the departure of one of their mainstays, and FB is blasting them for that and their recent tour. The Edinburgh gig was, apparently, "terrible".

With the recent death of their founder, it's sounding like things are falling apart. Would be a sad end to, IMO, one of the most innovative bands of the last 20-odd years.

Private venue for hire and a great space but it comes with issues. Tennants nearby complain about noise so they have in house sound engineers. There is no lift so all gear needs carried up the stairs and across the hall. Plus, nowhere to park without blocking the road. Our band played a wedding in there and having dumped the gear the nearest parking space I found was up at the top of Bruntsfield Place. Took me 15 minutes to walk back!

At that DSotM gig last year I was also in the mountain goat seats and I literally couldn't fit in them, the supervisor did the same for me and my mate and put us in the reserved seats in the stalls.

Just got tickets for Punk all dayer at Bellahouston Park next June, 6 bands for £71 is good value

Australian Pink Floyd nailed it at a sold out Usher Hall on Saturday after playing The Hydro on Friday

Sitting in the Usher Hall I realised it was 50 years and 6 days since I first saw Pink Floyd at Wembley.

I'm currently holding tickets to see Fontaines DC again, Doves, and The Tubs.

I've also got tickets to see Peter Kay in Leeds in March, but I can't go so I'll sell them at FV
Anyway, I'm not sure that qualifies as a gig on this thread.

Edit: And Public Service Broadcasting.

[O'Rourke3]

Barbara at the Voodoo rooms tomorrow. Seen them as support a couple of times. Excellent band!

I'm an idiot. I'm seeing The Furrow Collective on Saturday, not Admiral Fallow. Seen both before and I always get these two names mixed up. :rolleyes:

Was at the first night of the Soundhouse Winterfest last night - Amy Laurenson followed by the wonderful Inge Thomson and Catriona Macdonald performing the live score to Jenny Gilbertson's 1933 silent film The Rugged Island, about crofting families in Shetland.

Paul Heaton at the Hydro last night was brilliant. Nice long set with a mix of Housemartins, Beautiful South, Jacqui Abbott and solo stuff. Glasgow's own Rianne Downey is a real talent and great replacement for Jacqui Abbott. £35 a ticket and a full house. If he can do it at that price, so can most bands who don't go nuts with their production. He also keeps his merch at a reasonable price. £25 for a t-shirt, usually £40 for touring bands these days, more for the mega bands.

Paul Heaton is a national treasure an absolute legend

Really liked Rianne at the start but lately thought she had been trying too hard with some covers better than others

I suppose there is only one Jacqui Abbott

Paul Heaton has faith in Rianne

Looked good last night in the clips I have seen

As you say a great replacement

My favourite band at the moment, its rare for me to find a group/artist where I like almost every single one of their songs. Take My Heart, Rain (the Colors show version) and Oceans Of Emotions are pretty much played on a loop in our house.

Fontaines DC tonight at the Hydro put on a great show.

Horse playing her new album in it's entirety and in order in Perth tonight. Marti pellow was at another venue. Glad I chose horse. What a voice.

Skids and Spear of Destiny both brilliant tonight at Queens Hall.

While She Sleeps aren't what I'd call one of my favourite bands (I like them, just not that tier) but they're definitely one of the best I've seen live. They were outstanding at the Barrowlands last night :agree:

[marinello59]

Skids and Spear of Destiny both brilliant tonight at Queens Hall.

Caught them last night. Spear of Destiny as tight as a band gets. Superb. And The Skids are always good.
Saw The View tonight. They have grown in to a superb live band, catch them if you can.

Bright red now! Arrived in Glasgow in good time yesterday so we went to the Horse Shoe for a pint. Arrived about ten past four to see Aberdeen 1 Hibernian 3 on the TVs. Had to nervously drink more than planned until full time. Also didn't realise Fran Healy was there on Friday night singing karaoke to his own songs.

Anyway the sound at the Hydro was very bass heavy to start but once that was sorted out it was quite an incredible gig. Supporting band Hamish Hawk were also impressive.

I really like Doves, but without Jimmy Goodwin touring and singing, I didn’t fancy going to see them.

Coming up in February: Jazz Sabbath and Brit Floyd. (Not together, obvs).

I know what you mean. 😔

I thought it was a bit flat…. I did enjoy it but maybe the set up or Antons approach just feels a bit like they’re going through the motions.

They seem to be behaving this tour so maybe that’s why!

Generally enjoyed it not seen them for a long time so glad I was there but the constant tuning of guitars takes away any momentum.

Going to try and get Morrisey tickets

Can’t stand the man but never seen him in concert before

Bowling for Soup tonight. Wheatus and Magnolia Park are the support

How were they? I saw them at the o2 in Glasgow last time and nearly walked out because they were too busy telling fart jokes rather than playing music, when they did play music they were pretty good.

I was at the Dropkick Murphys gig a day or two before BFS.
