GrahamJags Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Went to see Klaxons last night. Venue got downgraded from the big ABC to the ABC2 and even then it wasn't full, but the band looked like they were loving it and it was great. Shame that this is their last UK tour. Got Future Islands at ABC next week which should be amazing, then John Grant, Morrissey and The Twilight Sad before the end of the year. Might sneak in The Bootleg Beatles as well. Will need to get myself a ticket for Justin Townes Earle at Celtic Connections. Always amazing live. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_K_97 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Not long in from Johnny Marr, his album sounds a lot better live than on the record. The Smiths songs were great and Getting Away With It went down a storm. Put on a cracking show from start to finish. I went with my girlfriends nephew as he's just starting to find his own taste and asked me to go. Marr is quite possibly the smallest man I've ever seen. I absolutely loved it. Brilliant to see him live, he's probably my favourite guitarist ever. Brilliant to see songs like The Headmaster Ritual get played - Getting Away With It was my highlight, even if he did get a bit angry at his guitar (tech). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant gig the man just oozes class and was clearly enjoying himself as much as the crowd. Managed to meet him afterwards as my friends daughter wanted a pic with him, he spent ages chatting, signing autographs and getting pics took with fans. A totally genuine guy who even started conversations with fans about what music they were into/where they were from etc. Friends daughter went away over the moon after he pulled a plectrum out his pocket for her after hearing she is learning guitar and trying to play Smiths songs. Getting away with it was my highlight of the gig. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Lykke Li in Manchester coming up. I suppose I'll need to brush up on my knowledge of her, as I'm only going because my friend wants to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Bezzer! Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Very rarely venture out these days in my dotage but I'll be at the Black Lips gig tomorrow. Hopefully lots of 'punk slime' there and it's a good one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddfg Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Van Morrison at Royal Concert Hall as part of Celtic Connections in January, hope he plays a fair share of the better known songs and doesn't take a strop as I've talked the wife into going and she ain't a fan! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 That's me fully booked for Lykke Li in Manchester. Hotel booked, buses and tickets. Naw bad considering I barely know anything about her music. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross. Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Kasabian in Zürich tonight. Venue changed around a month back to one that is a fair bit smaller than the original one. Be interesting to see how many folk turn up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Saw the Courteeners on Saturday at the Barras, I thought they were superb (apart from the cunty Oasis/Stone Roses fans) until I saw Chvrches last night, who completely blew them out the water. Tether and Gun were absolute show-stoppers, and their new song "Get Away" sounds fantastic live. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
