Upcoming gigs?

Was watching the 'highlights' of Isle of Wight. My god that's one boring festival- the crowd are half asleep and no wonder considering some of the mundane acts that are playing.

Maxi Jazz was pretty special.

(which says a lot )

Brandi Carlile tomorrow in Glasgow. No Elton though.

I got tickets too. Should be a great night, not just a normal gig.

Is Andy Bell ok these days? I saw him at Rewind two years ago and he was pretty good - but the voice was creaking a bit on a few songs. A few weeks later he was booed at Rewind South and think his slot was cut short. Some of the videos I’ve seen of it I was really sorry for the guy. Not heard too much of him since so hopefully he’s back on top form for the Queens Hall.

Was at UB40 on Friday, was good but felt like they missed out quite a few classics

They have a huge catalogue. Some of their best songs rarely get an outing. I can’t really be doing with some of their more commercially successful stuff tbh.

Brandi carlile at the Glasgow concert hall last night, over 2 hours on stage. Absolutely brilliant, catch her glastonbury set if you can. Saturday.

I've been to the IoW festival 4 times now. it's fantastic. Great mix of music and punters with a far lower number of wee radges than TITP etc. Definitely geared towards the more mature crowd, no doubt......that's me though unfortunately lol. This year was the weakest line-up I've seen but still had a brilliant time. Worth noting that Sky don't show any of the 15 or so small stages, just the more mainstream stuff.

Yeh he's fine. He just did a short solo tour....basically the same as Erasure, full band but no Vince. His voice seemed to be much better than recent years and he was on good form. His rewind shows tends to be glorified karaoke.

Last Night Kid Creole and the Coconuts. Bought the tickets principally to see the support band Barbara. We've seen supporting a few decent bands. Genuinely surprised at the main attraction. Excellent musicians, good backing (and lead singing from the Coconuts). The trick - play all the hits early doors but they all lasted about 10 mins. In the first hour they'd managed a total of 6 numbers including 2 from the ladies. No-one under 60 in the Queens Hall which isn't too far short of capacity. Old August D is an excellent front man- and a pretty great mover for a man his age!

His Rewind show I saw just sounds like the solo tour you’ve mentioned. Full Erasure set without VC. Not sure what you mean by “glorified karaoke” tbh.

I was there too. Was at their last visit to Edinburgh 43 years ago as a schoolboy. The Kid in great form at 74 and the backing band were top pros along with thr girls. Great show and a thoroughly enjoyable night 🙌

Opening night of the Oasis reunion tour was phenomenal according to the reviews I've seen.

I was at Alanis Morissette at the Hydro last night. Brilliant gig from a performer at the peak of her craft.

From what I saw streamed on YouTube until the bellend stewards made the guy turn it off (thanks Hazeydaze, if you’re out there somewhere you beautiful Welshman) it was outstanding.

I’ve heard the coolest ***** are going on the 12th of August and that’s the only date they’ll be playing Columbia, Lyla and IATW. Just what I’ve heard though
