Springsteen was great and for a 72yo a **** ton of energy!! Never stopped for 2.5 hrs. One song finished straight in to the next.

Still processing it. I'm like a washed-out rag with all the dancing, singing and greeting I did.Quote:

Springsteen was great, the band even better. The crowd/atmosphere was poor I thought though. I was pretty far down the rear standing and everyone was just standing still.
Only really seemed to get going a couple of songs before the encore.
I prefer my gigs intimate and sweaty 😂
I'm gutted that I only just found out Steve Earle is at the queen's hall. Would love to have taken my brother
Need to keep an eye on this thread. Was discussed here some time ago ...Quote:

Watched the Foo Fighters live set from Rock Am Ring last night - an outstanding set of banger after banger, executed incredibly.
Was greetin' more than a few times, but so good to see them back doing what they do best.
Off to Dublin for a couple of gigs this month. Kasabian at the Olympia, which is rescheduled from last year when they first started touring again so it's a really wee venue. Then, Depeche Mode in front of 50,000 at Malahide Castle the following night. Then it's Copenhagen for Depeche Mode at the Parken Stadium at the end of June.
I was there also and can second the comments. Great gig!Quote:

Caught a bit of their gigs while working at Old Trafford the last two nights. They’ve got a weird following of teenage girls these days (TikTok, apparently). Mixed up the set list quite a bit over the two nights which is a bonus for anyone going more than once on the same tour.Quote:

On both days there were hundreds and hundreds queuing from 1pm even though AM weren’t due on until 8.45pm. The first few hundred all got a free upgrade to the golden circle.Quote:

The room was also absolutely melting

Sounds like it might have been the same stewards that did the Biffy Clyro gig at Ingliston last summer. Took every item out every wallet. Also accused me of being “reeking of alcohol” despite the fact I hadn’t actually had a drink.Quote:

Hamish Hawk on Friday night, then Skids next Thursday , then The Silencers on the 23rd
Arctic Monkeys in Sheffield on Friday followed by Sam Fender in Newcastle on Saturday. Buzzing.
That’s mental but sounds like it’s becoming more common. Hardly surprising given the fact 75% folk at gigs these days seem to be on the gear howeverQuote:
