I saw them in 2019 in Newcastle and he was playing with them then too. They were excellent that night.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
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''It's always been just part of the culture. Growing up, for most working-class kids, is all about football, music or clothes. You might not have much money, but whatever you have got, you're going to look good.'' - Paul Weller

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.

Just found out the Black Stone Cherry gig at the Usher Hall tomorrow has been cancelled due to a problem with the fire alarm, absolutely gutted, we half thought about going to Glasgow tonight for their gig but decided not to. Waited a whole year just to get it cancelled last minute is a bloody joke, seemingly the O2 Corn Exchange is free tomorrow, surprised they promoters couldn't get that organised.

Got Fontaines DC at the Corn Exchange booked. Sportsteam at the O2 in Glasgow and a trip down memory lane to ocean colour scene at the barras.
Can’t wait to get back to a gig!!!

So after missing out on Black Stone Cherry on Saturday due to cancellation, we found out last night we didn't need to look after our granddaughter today, now in Newcastle with tickets to see the band, chuffed.

Manic Street Preachers in Dundee next week. Been downgraded from the Caird Hall to Fat Sams nightclub as the Caird Hall is still concluding vaccinations.
That's going to be one hell of a gig in a small venue.

For those of you who have been to standing gigs how have you found it? I’m over next month to sheffield for an electronic festival. Really looking forward to it but also pretty apprehensive.

No certs were needed, and like JC says, I think people were just happy to be back.
My fear, though, is when there is more drink and drugs involved. That's when it might be more difficult to avoid f-wits

Just got tickets to go see Creeper in December in Leeds, Alkaline Trio in March in Glasgow, Tool in May in Manchester and Slam dunk festival in Leeds in June. I'm absolutely ecstatic to finally be able to get back to gig's although it's fair to say I'll be doing a lot of miles to get to most of them.
