Upcoming gigs?

[Babyshamble]

Arab Strap at the weekend :aok:

The first big weekend ...great tune. Enjoy the gig mate.

[Frazerbob]

Depeche Mode new album and tour announced today. 32 stadium gigs across Europe, including London Olympic Stadium then over to the US and back to Europe for an indoor leg.

[Stranraer]

Any Hip Hop fans?

The Game is coming to Glasgow on December 21st, got my ticket and a few of us from Stranraer are going up to it.

[GreenLake]

A gig called "Jingle Ball"(I kid you not) on December 2nd came up on my ticket offers but the lineup looks frightening.

Bruno Mars, Justin Bieber, Britney Spears, Meghan Trainor, Fifth Harmony, Diplo, Alessia Cara, Lukas Graham, Daya and Niall Horan.

Oh, and Bob Dylan just won the Nobel Literature Prize for "having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition."

[Captain Trips]

Jean Michel Jarre tomorrow for me.

[CallumLaidlaw]

You'll spend your time watching the screens.
And the sound is poor up there.

Agreed. Done 1 gig from the 3rd tier and wouldn't fancy it again. Done a couple from the front of the 2nd tier tho and that was good

How many you doing mate?

[Captain Trips]

Now to try and get my hands on Kraftwerk tickets for June in either Glasgow or Edinburgh.

[Mr White]

Super Furry Animals at the limelight in Belfast at the end of November. First night of a tour celebrating the 20th anniversary of the first 2 albums. I can't believe it's been that long. I saw them touring Radiator on my 18th birthday.

[Frazerbob]

Pity no Scottish dates.

After the summer, they head to the US and South America, then they'll be back in Europe for an arena tour in the winter. It's their tried & tested routine. They might well play the Hydro then.

[Frazerbob]

How many you doing mate?

So far I've booked Stockholm, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Kiev & Warsaw. Think that'll be it for this leg. Will get a few more in the winter when they're back for the indoor gigs, which are far better than the huge stadiums.

[Captain Trips]

Me too. Steve Howe on Saturday.

Brilliant night, thank you Jean Michel Jarre

[GreenLake]

Bob Dylan may have won the Nobel Prize for Literature but last night his performance was totally eclipsed by The Rolling Stones. The best band performance I have seen on stage. They average an age over 70.

[Northernhibee]

Arab Strap were outstanding. Perfect setlist and ended up playing for nearly two and a half hours, much to the lack of amusement of the cloakroom staff.

[GreenLake]

Roger Waters is playing in LA on the 20th and 21st of June 2017. I quite enjoyed his performance at Desert Trip and the stage show was spectacular while presenting his political viewpoints. I would rate him behind The Rolling Stones and The Who for entertainment value but I'll take up my ticket options.

[Sylar]

Deftones - May 7th - SECC :thumbsup::thumbsup:

[Frazerbob]

Next year's shaping up well, so far I've booked Pet Shop Boys at The Playhouse, Stone Roses at Hampden and Depeche Mode in Stockholm, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Kiev & Warsaw.
Unfortunately I had to punt my tickets for Adam Ant as it clashes with the start of the Depeche tour.

Getting dragged along to see UFO at the Queens Hall tonight by my mate. Wasn't really a fan when they were actually half decent so a good few pints beforehand is in order.

[Carheenlea]

Lovely Eggs @ The Electric Circus on Friday night.
Richie Ramone @ Bannermans in December, and that's all I've left ticket wise this year. Been to some good ones lately - Brix & The Extricated, Arab Strap, Damien Dempsey and The Fall.
Next year I have King Creosote @ The Old Fruitmarket and Kraftwerk @ Usher Hall. Getting my arm twisted go to Leipzig to see Depeche Mode, but still to decide.

[Sylar]

Went to see Bring Me The Horizon at the Hydro last night.

Very disappointed I have to say. Quite sure Oli Sykes was high or completely pished! His vocal performance was agonisingly bad.

If the gig is half as good as it was at the academy last year then it'll be a great night!

Architects (with support from Bury Tomorrow and Stick to your Guns) at the O2 ABC tonight.

Missed them at Download due to the passing of Tom Searle, so I'm really looking forward to this.

Expecting tears!

The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing are playing in Bannermans in Edinburgh tonight and I'm heading along.

They were great at Download, and I'm really looking forward to it! :greengrin

[LustForLeith]

Primal Scream were excellent at the Usher Hall last nihgt. Love the venue itself with one problem - the amount of time you have to wait at the bar. Surely some boffin types have created a system/formula for the quickest time you could order a drink and have it pured for you? Missed about three songs!

[J-C]

I'm off to see Alter Bridge at the Hydro next Thursday, a wee birthday pressie from the wife, hotel near the venue so a few drinks and breakfast in the morning. They have a new album out so looking forward to this gig, seen them a few times, Tremonti is some guitarist and Miles Kennedy was born to sing rock with a 4 octave range voice.

[GreenLake]

Just witnessed the Super Furry Animals play their first 2 albums in their entirety in Belfast. Happy because parts of it reminded me of being 17 again. Slightly sad because overall it highlighted that that was 20 years ago...

I've just bought tickets for little mix at the hydro next year :greengrin

[Jim44]

Just discovered' Paul Carrack'. I knew his name and his association with Mike and the Mechanics but not much else. Turns out he was with Ace, session artist with Roxy Music, Squeeze, wrote a couple of songs for The Eagles and now is his own man, writing his own stuff and doing great covers of old classics. Superb, velvety, soulful voice, certainly one for the oldies. Can't wait to see him at the Playhouse in February.

His covers album Still Groovin is mostly superb, the strange thing is that the bonus tracks are the best covers on the album.

[easty]

Blossoms were very good on Monday night, saw them at Liquid Rooms earlier in the year tae, but they were better at Potterrow.

[Frazerbob]

Party Fears Three are back at The Liquid Rooms on Thursday 29th December for the now legendary annual Christmas 80's electronic shindig. Brilliant night of Depeche Mode, Human League, Erasure, Ultravox, Duran Duran, Pet Shop Boys, Soft Cell, Simple Minds, Ah-ha, Heaven 17, Gary Numan, Bowie etc. Norman Brown will be on the wheels of steel after the gig with more electronic 80's tunes until the small hours. All for a tenner!

[Hibs90]

anyone off to TTF tomorrow?

[LustForLeith]

Went to see The Fratellis last night at the Barras. Really good show although at times they sounded like a country band!

[Sylar]

Was at one of the best gigs I've been to in a very long time on Saturday night at the Garage in Glasgow - Beartooth (with support from Vanna and Trash Boat). An immense crowd and a stunning performance from Beartooth - I like the Garage as a venue - great sound, and super tight on the floor, with a great balcony area.

Off to see Yellowcard at the O2 ABC tonight perform their last ever gig in Scotland.

[DH1875]

anyone off to TTF tomorrow?

How did that go?

It's my best mates Mrs 40th birthday in January. As a result he is trying to get my wife and i to go with them to see Ultrasonic. Think its some sort of Source reunion or something. Told him we are to old for that but its what she wants her birthday lol.

[Godsahibby]

Off to see Super Furry Animals tonight. Playing something for the weekend and Radiator back to back.

[Sylar]

Yellowcard was a sad experience on Monday - I was 16 again for the full evening. Pure nostalgia and a lengthy set!

Seen Korn with support from Limp Bizkit last night - again, a pure nostalgia trip but both bands were really good (can't say anything about Madball, whom I had no interest in catching).

[Aldo]

Was at Twin Atlantic at the Barrowlands last Thursday and it's fair to say they didn't disappoint.

Outstanding gig.

[Allant1981]

I had nothing planned for this evening but whilst out getting coffee at work earlier, I clocked The Dillinger Escape Plan guys heading into the QMU for soundcheck, so popped over to say hello (as I'm a fan) - now I'm on their guest list for this evening :greengrin

[Moulin Yarns]

Celtic Connections starts tonight, got three gigs, The Hazey Janes and Liz Lochhead, Eliza Carty and Mull Historical Society on three consecutive nights.

[DH1875]

Anyone seen noasis? If so, are they any good? Playing in Glasgow next month and thinking of heading along.

[Carheenlea]

This week I have Girl Band on Thursday night @ Summerhall followed by King Creosote @ The Old Fruitmarket on Friday night.

[Carheenlea]

Tickets purchased for Mogwai @ The Hydro on Dec 16th. Never been to the Hydro before so not sure what to expect. After taking on board some info from someone who experienced dodgy sound from a section of the seated areas, a mate has opted for standing tickets for us.
Tickets have also been purchased for Future Islands @ The Barrowlands on April 27th.

[easty]

[Jim44]

Going to see JJ Gilmour, Ex Silencers singer, now great singer/songwriter in Stirling on Saturday. Then next Saturday, Paul Carrack, top man, at Edinburgh Fesival Theatre.

[Steve-O]

Guns N Roses this Thursday in Wellington. Got a ticket for about £40 as they've been struggling to sell them - cheapest to start with was around £70 at the back of the stadium up to £200 odds down the front. Way too much for most Kiwis.

[Ayrshire Hibee]

British Sea Power @ liquid rooms in april (will be my 17th BSP gig) love this band and so underrated. Worth checking out guys if you have never seen them ;-)

[LustForLeith]

Got a Saturday ticket for TRNSMT or whatever it's called. Never been to Glasgow Green for a gig before!

[Sylar]

The Wonder Years (with support from PUP, Tiny Moving Parts and Trash Boat) at the QMU in Glasgow on Saturday! :thumbsup:

[Sylar]

Only the Sunday was anywhere near enticing me, but that's because of Biffy and I've seen them 7 times already!

There used to be 'Gig on the Green', which was excellent - I went 3 years in a row between 2000 and 2003 (I think?).

[The Modfather]

Anyone else going to see Miracle Glass Company at Voodoo Rooms on Friday?

I was going to go but it is part of some sort of club night rather than just a normal gig. I saw The Enemy at The Picturehouse at a similar sounding club night. They didn't come on until midnight and was a shorter set. Phoned the venue but the girl had no idea. Anyone know how I could find out?

[Jim44]

Paul Carrack at the Festival Theatre last night. Outstanding.

[grunt]

Paul Carrack at the Festival Theatre last night. Outstanding.Saw him in 1975 with Ace.

I have a sneaky suspicion that my wife has bought us tickets for Amy MacDonald in March and I know we're going to see The Weeknd somewhere. (Don't ask.)

[Jim44]

Saw him in 1975 with Ace.

Still doing How Long and all the Mike and the Mechanics stuff plus his more recent soul repertoire. Really tight band ........ fantastic musicians. Best gig I've been to for ages.

[YehButNoBut]

Blossoms.

[Jim44]

Support act for JJ Gilmour at his Portpatrick festival at the end of the month - Blue Rose Code. Listened to them on Spotify. Great singer with good Scots accent and good instrumentals, lots of good songs. One called Edina, sings about wearing the green and white and going through the turnstiles at Easter Road.

Should be announced tomorrow but those who know me on here will know as I tend to bang on about them every 3 or 4 years when they release albums and go on tour.

[Frazerbob]

After an almighty scramble, I managed to bag myself a ticket For Depeche Mode at The Barras. I actually can't believe I'm going to see them in such a small, iconic venue. Having seen them in some huge stadiums and arenas over the years, this is going to be special, up there with The Albert Hall gig a few years ago. It's their smallest gig since 1984....and only £30 for the privilege. 44 years old and I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas!

Chris Rock tickets are on sale for the Hydro in January. Would love to see him live but at £100+ per ticket for lower section seats I'm thinking its a tad to much to see a comedian (even if it is Chris Rock). You can get level 3 tickets for £50 but given its one guy on stage doing stand up and not a band doing a full gig I'm guessing these seats would be pretty crap. Thoughts ??? :confused:.

Also seeing Idlewild at Leith theatre, Dropkick Murphy's in Dunfermline and Nick Cave and the bad seeds at the Hydro.

[Carheenlea]

Ears still ringing after an amazing show by Swans last night - two and a half hours for a set consisting of of five tracks! Loudest gig ever attended.
Don't think I've anything else for a few weeks so next up will be Kraftwerk @ Usher Hall then Dead Kennedys @ Liquid Rooms in June. Fall tickets booked for a Friday night trip to Wakefield which should be fun.

Any idea if Idlewild are doing a full set? I am going, but I have been told they're not on until 10:15pm! Wouldn't be worried, but I'm also going to the afternoon session of the Edinburgh Craft Beer festival the same day, and I'll have stepped off a flight from New Zealand on the Wednesday so am concerned that a combo of drink and jet lag might mean I don't even see Idlewild that night...

Also got tickets for Arcade Fire, I think they'll be decent at the ECE. Annoying venue to get to mind, I'll likely drive to that gig.

It looks like there's a dj on after Idlewild, at 23:30, so I imagine they'll be on for an hour or so. I think there's stuff going on until 3AM but you probably won't manage that.

I'm buzzing for Arcade Fire, awesome live and they'll make the best of it.

Was at Imelda May last night in Glasgow, with support from Jack Lukeman at the Royal Concert Hall.

Quite enjoyed it, even though it's not necessarily my usual scene. Very good backing band, and by goodness that woman can sing. The support act was also bloody good.

Ocean Colour Scene in Belfast 25th August looks very tempting. Playing Moseley Shoals in its entirety. Considering how retro styled it is and was at it's release I've always been surprised how well it's stood the test of time as an album.

I don't know the whole story or if it was even the guys I am thinking of.
That said, it was an electro gig but we were all sat there in silence. Wrong venue for the gig I would say, so I have sympathy for folk chucked out for being a bit boisterous.

I guess you're right, and I think it depends on the band. Speaking personally, if I want to be boisterous I'll go to the pub. I go to concerts to listen to the music, and having folk talking at gigs drives me mad.

I realise there are different types of gigs.

I was there last night and really enjoyed it. Axl still sounds alright and puts in a shift running around the stage. I'd forgotten how good they were and even if you didn't like their music you'd still enjoy the performance. Natural showmen and the crowd were getting well in to it. Took me back to doing my paper round before school. Enjoy mate, wish I was going again.

I wouldn't even be too upset if this was true, end on a high so to speak considering there is no new material likely to be released. Before they re-formed I was gutted that I would never get to see them live. Was buzzing when they announced they were getting back together and seen them twice now, both times have been amazing. Would obviously be a shame and I'd definitely go see them again if it isn't their last one though.

And I though going to Hampden with Hibs was bad enough. Joke of a stadium not fit for purpose and stewards are hopeless. We had standing tickets but ended up sitting in the stand for half the night. Seemed to me that people could just go where they wanted and we were involved in a massive crush underneath the south stand where the bar and all the porta cabins were. Was very frightening as one line of stewards were pushing the crowd one way and another line of stewards pushing the crowd the other so crowd wash pushing into each other. People were going nuts and a few people had to be seen by paramedics as it was a proper struggle. Lots of people complaining to the stewards and wanting something done about it but were just told to go away or being laughed at. Then there's the bar situation where you gotta queue half an hour for tokens to then have to then have to spend another half hour queuing to get served the drink, thank god they don't serve alcohol at the football. Saw many drunken sights including guys just peeing everywhere (inside the stadium). No idea how women cope with needing the toilet as nowhere near enough for them and seemed to be queing for ages to use the ones that were there. Also what's the script with smoking? How come you can't smoke at the football but are freely allowed to smoke inside the stadium at a gig :confused:.
To top the night off, some wee lassie spewed all over one of our group. Not a pleasant sight but what you gonna do, was a wee girl about 16 who just said sorry and then continued to jump about daft.
As others have said, getting back into town was a farce. Do they not put on extra buses and trains like they do at the football?

I've seen some sights going to Hampden with Hibs but Saturday topped them all and doubt I'd ever go back again for a concert.

Their late-start policy for gigs is brutal, especially for those of us travelling in from out of town.

If you're able, and don't mind not drinking, I'd drive through. Parking is pretty easy to get on a Sunday night around Bath Street, St Vincent Street or in Blythswood Square.

If it's the Milk Teeth gig, doors open at 8:00pm and there are two support acts in Employed to Serve and Wallflower.

Aye that's the one. Not much of a milk teeth fan so as long as ETS are done by 11 all will be well.
Not drinking probably not an option for this as anticipate it will be fairly mental.

Was there yesterday and loved Radiohead. Watching Kasabian at the moment on tv and they're different class.

Sublime with Rome at Shepherds Bush. Won't be the same without Bradley but still really looking forward to it.

Next weekend sees Party Fears Three play their annual Festival gig at Liquid Rooms followed by a main stage slot at Party at the Palace on the Sunday. Get yourself along if you like your 80's synth bands.

Depends on your tastes I suppose - I know they're quite popular, but for me, they released one really good album (their first) and everything after that just sounded derivative and insipid - pretty typical of the Indie bands from that era.

I seen them live at my only ever trip to T in the Park in 2005, and they were entertaining enough.
