Oscar Wilder Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 What an absolutely outstanding show from The Menzingers. A straight up greatest hits set from start to finish. Major sing a long, I now have no voice left. Showing exactly why they're one of my favourite bands. Superb support from Joyce Manor and Sincere Engineer as well. Great night all round.Agreed! What a great gig, The Menzingers were superb and first time seeing Joyce Manor, thought they were really good too, caught the last few songs from Sincere Engineer who I'd never heard but will check them out today!

Harry Kinnear Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Managed to get tickets for Depeche Mode at the Olympic Stadium, Berlin next July. Will be strange seeing them without Fletch but going over for 4 nights so really looking forward to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Kersey Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 I saw Stone Foundation at Beat Generator in Dundee last night. I'll admit that I'd never heard of them before I saw the gig advertised but I went along just for the hell of it. Not many bands come to Dundee after all. They were excellent, proper funky acid jazz type stuff. Much better than I expected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Why did none of you tell me Alvvays were playing here at the beginning of the month? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Kersey Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 (edited) I just saw The Cure at the Mercedes Benz Arena in Berlin. Twilight sad were the support act, and they were astonishingly pish. Most of their songs were instantly forgettable, apart from one that had a chorus that went something like "fucking someone won't keep you warm at night". I nearly cringed myself inside out when I heard that. It was the most embarrassing lyric that I have ever heard. The Cure were immense though. They must have played for the best part of three hours. They did every tune from Disintegration along with a selection of their various chart hits. Robert Smith must be drawing a pension by now, but he still has it.

betting competition Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Watched Just Mustard in Berlin and they was excellent as they were in Glasgow. Went to Leipzig and watched Twilight Sad and the Cure. Twilight Sad was excellent had decent view but went for a few drinks and my view for the cure was horrendous, didn't see a thing and wasn't enjoying it much either so left early. I hate big venues where if standing if no big screens then they ain't seeing anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAD Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Pavement last night at the Barras was fucking excellent. They absolutely rattled through the near two hour set, and the crowd were right into it. Didn't play in the mouth a desert though, which upset me slightly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christophe Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Going to see Pavement in Manchester tonight, reports are excellent, glad the same being said on here. I'll let you know if we get In the Mouth a Desert 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Wilson Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Another 2 from my nostalgia series. 43 years ago last night was Sham 69, who were shite and always have been, but we just went to everything then. 44 years ago on the 21st it was Buzzcocks and Subway Sect, who were not shite. Busy, busy, busy... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad The Cure were good too, though. The stuff I've read about this tour has been overwhelmingly positive, and the setlists have all been unreal. Cannot fucking wait for them (and The Twilight Sad) at the Hydro soon-ish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamJags Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 (edited) Went to Kathryn Joseph at Saint Luke's on Saturday. Gig was completely ruined by the bleed of the music being played in the bar next door. Loud enough for Kathryn herself to comment on it from the stage (in good spirit). Annoying as f**k, since she was brilliant, but the intimacy of her set was completely lost. Next couple are Robbie Williams at the Hydro next week, then Bob Dylan at the Armadillo on Halloween. Don't think I've ever seen him in a venue as small as that before, so it should be great. Edited October 20, 2022 by GrahamJags 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Kinnear Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 (edited) Goodbye Mr MacKenzie tomorrow night at The Liquid Rooms. Last time I saw them was just before lockdown and they were immense so should be good. Edited October 20, 2022 by Harry Kinnear 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
