Archie McSquackle Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Seen The Charlatans doing their 31st anniversary (30th anno delayed due to Covid) greatest hits tour in Manchester last night. Banger after banger... Next up for me is The Human League on Friday night. Doing a 'Dare' 40th anniversary tour.I saw Tim Burgess at the end of October doing an acoustic set in the rather surreal setting of Strathaven Hotel. Just him on his own for most of it, joined at times by guys from BMX Bandits and the Pearlfishers who were supporting him. He came across as really humble and it was a cracking night. If the Human League are half as good as they were at Kelvingrove a few years ago then you're in for a treat. Mrs. McSquackle is going on the Thursday night so I'll hear all about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 QMU Covid policy: Fine, and at least matched the passport to a person's ID which makes more sense than not doing it WWPJ: Fantastic, although Andy looked a bit miserable all night Crowd: Fucking horrific. When the same guy with face tattoos crowd surfs and falls on top of you four times it loses it charm a bit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eindhovendee Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Was at the AO Arena for Human League on Friday supported by Altered Images and Thompson Twins. First vist back there for me since the bombing and security was a bit more thorough than before as you can imagine. This caused us to be too late for Claire Grogan though she was belting out Happy Birthday as we got a drink at the bar. Tom Bailey's Thompson Twins were on next for 40 mins doing a few of their hits including You Take Me Up, Doctor Doctor, Hold Me Now and Love On Your Side. Human League were on for around 90 mins and were brilliant. I'm more of an eclectic Prog Rock, Bowie, Motown taste and 80s electro pop wasn't really my thing back then but this was the 40th anniversary of the Dare album which they did in full on top of a lot of other hits and they didn't disappoint. Every song belted out by the middle aged crowd loving the nostalgia and its definitely my thing now. This was the playlist. The encore. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Kinnear Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 So much to look forward to in 2022 so far, Bunnymen in March, My Chemical Romance in May, James in June, Cure in December. Just hope Covid doesn’t f**k things up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
