They are Ozzy. Tommy O’Dell, the lead singer is a massive Everton fan. Think his family are originally from Liverpool. The club seem to embrace it too. They have DMAs related Everton merchandise. Think the band were signing stuff in the club shop beforehand too.Quote:

Up in the gods myself for this. Will be the first time I’ve sat up there for a gig.Quote:

Mary Wallopers at liquid rooms last night. really enjoyed it, quite a lively show.:greengrin
The View in Aberdeen on Saturday night were as good as I have seen them live.
Crashed Out at Legends on Saturday night
Just got a ticket for the Lightning Seeds in November.
Next 2 up are Punk Xmas at Legends on Sat and Andy White at Leith Depot in January.
Caught them at the Lemon Tree on Friday. I don’t think they will be playing a room that small again, absolutely superb.Quote:

Noel last night was great.
I saw Jools Holland and his Rhythm and Blues orchestra last night as we have every December for years.
Extremely entertaining evening with Selecta as special guests.
Have to say I found it a bit dull. I was really disappointed when it became clear that his set list is just the same as his summer gigs.Quote:

Would rather be played more of his new album or picked better songs from his earlier solo stuff. Most people seemed to think it was a great gig so probably just me but I’m so bored with his sets now.
Gigs are always a bit like this, no matter who the band are it's a fine line between playing too many new tracks or too many older classics.Quote:

Great wee venue, good music and a diverse crowd.
Well done Edinburgh for having a decent jazz venue!
The wife and I have given each other some gig tickets for Christmas, so in January we have Buckcherry and Florence Black in Glasgow and then in March we have Ugly Kid Joe with support from The Virginmarys in March. The daughter gave us a £50 voucher from Ticketmaster, so that'll go towards another gig somewhere.
Got a weekend pass for CTM festival in Berlin at the start of February. Big gang going over as there’s a lot of Irish acts. Will be nice to get into Berghain hassle free.

Sex Pistols Expose at the Beat Generator Live in Dundee tomorrow night.
Got gifts of tickets for Eric Clapton and Bill Bailey in the coming year.
Anyone doing any Celtic Connections gigs this year?
Do they usually finish in time to get trains back to Edinburgh?
Looking forward to From The Jam and the Skids at the Queen’s Hall in a couple of weeks.
I won’t be at any gigs but the concert marking the centenary of John Macleans death and the Red Clydeside era is one I would love to see, Billy Bragg, Karine Polwart and Eddie Reader to name a few participants.Quote:

(For the first time in a long time, I won't be doing anything at CC this year. )
I tried to get tickets for The Transatlantic Sessions as I am up in Edinburgh that weekend but they were sold out.Quote:

Also not gonna miss Hot Water Music, A Wilhelm Scream and Catbite at the end of march in Glasgow.
Had Bring Me The Horizon and Bad Omens at the Hydro last night. Really not my favourite venue, but it was packed, and it was a cracking show.
The secret is definitely parking up in Finnieston and walking over the expressway bridge. Made getting out and away so much easier last night.
Spanish Love Songs up next on Wednesday night at The Garage.
