Zero crowd interaction as per but to the point he turned away between pretty much every song so he didn't even have to look at the crowd. Saw them at the Bandstand in Kelvingrove. Absolutely fantastic. My favourite live band and I was there with my eldest boy for his first gig. He loved it. Tons of Doolittle and loads of Surfer Rosa stuff. Nae encore but after 30 odd songs I can handle that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the same in Edina, 30 songs no encore. Ironically I had never seen them live before July of this year and then saw them twice in about 25 days 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 RTJ still on for the Corn Exchange in Edinburgh. Clocked it this morning and got tickets this afternoon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamski Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 King Creosote at Kelvingrove Bandstand last night playing From Scotland With Love in full. Perfect summer evening, majestic album, poignant footage. Really enjoyed it. Last time I saw him was in mid-March 2020 - the last ‘normal’ thing I did for a wee while. Fingers crossed that it’s not an omen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowdenleith Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Was at Simple Minds in Princes Street Gardens last night, they always put on a good show, no exception last night. Must have bought the tickets almost 3 years ago, was originally meant to be August 2020. It was labelled a greatest hits show, so there were some songs I could have lived without, Belfast Child never seemed to end. Annoyingly they more recently added a second night tonight and are playing New Gold Dream all the way through plus some hits, that would have been much more up my street. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I've been at a wee run of gigs at the Kelvingrove Bandstand which really is a special venue, particularly in the recent great weather. Pixies were the stand-out but also The Jesus and Mary Chain on Friday then Altered Images and Edwyn Collins last He's an inspiring character and, going by posts in the Motherwell thread, a top bloke to boot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnderooMFC Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Somehow just found out there was a music/gig thread on here... Anyway, this past week I've had Nekrogoblikon (Classic Grand), Combichrist (Cathouse) and Travis (Princes St Gardens). Next up is Machine Head at The Garage on the 31st, and another 10 booked between September-March. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Just found out Gwar are playing the Garage tonight. Would have been all over that if I'd heard about it earlier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyAnchor Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Went to see the wonderful American Aquarium last night in Denver. Great show though the sound was iffy at times. Recommend them if you ever get the chance 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 I got an email on Thursday to say my ticket was due to be sent out and I mildly opined that I didn't really feel like it Maybe this is one for the coincidence thread 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweeperDee Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 I wouldn't be googling them tonight if I were youI couldn’t really believe it when I read the allegations. Soul crushing really; I knew he was a bellend, most hipstery men in their 40s are, but the extent I had no idea. Really don’t know if I could enjoy a gig with him there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Kersey Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Just booked a ticket to see The Cure at the Mercedes Benz arena in Berlin in October. It's always a risk seeing aging bands. Some still have it, others are just like somebody's drunk uncle singing karaoke. I hope Smith puts on a good show. Still, spending a few hours in the company of thousands of German Goths should be interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only first saw them in 2006, and 4 times since, but each time has been outstanding, the pick of the bunch being at Wembley Arena, December 2017. They never put on a bad show! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 It's all pretty tame stuff. One of the women DM'd him then sent him scuddies and is now claiming she was abused. How does that work? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
