Craig fae the Vale Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 The RCS Symphony Orchestra tonight. Their main event being Rachmaninov's Symphonic Dances. Wouldn't sit and listen to classical music at home, but it's superb seeing it performed live, especially by some of the best young musicians in the world. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was like they'd never been away and I felt like I was 19 again. The effort in putting my socks on this morning I realised I was not 19 any more. A nice shout out too from Ricky Warwick to Shane MaGowan and Geordie Walker. Have to agree with that. They were absolutely brilliant. Tantrum looked exactly like he did the last time I saw him with them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Three large whiskies last night and I've ended up booking The Movielife in Leeds in March since there's no Glasgow date. Best get a hotel sorted 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Daði Freyr at the O2 Academy in Glasgow tonight. What a performer. Absolutely great fun from start to finish. Support from Australian girl group Blusher. Good singers, but not really my thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Naitch Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Add me to the P!nk list for next June. Her Hampden show last time around was brilliant so expecting more of the same on this one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Vinnie Caruana of The Movielife and I Am The Avalanche solo acoustic tonight. Absolutely brilliant set of songs from both bands and his solo material. And when you meet one of your teenage heroes and he's just the coolest guy, it's a big bonus. Support from Sam Russo who was also excellent. Very good night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Currently in Dundee to watch Arab Strap. First venue I’ve been to with the ampersand since the good old days of Sunday night karaoke at the Coach & Horses back in 19… It certainly is different. The tone of the evening was set earlier when the dog was ordering pints at the bar. Next gig: Arab Strap in Gala. Sort of home game. So I’ll be there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig fae the Vale Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 The Used at the Galvanizers tonight. Some really good nostalgia and the newer songs hold up well too. Not at the top of my list of gigs from this year but still a very good performance. Support from The Home Team and Honey Revenge who were both a lot of fun. Honey Revenge in particular I really enjoyed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Kroeger & co can GTF at those kinda prices!!! I managed to get standing for about £90 in the presale. I'd normally refuse to pay that but I've never seen them before and they're on my gig bucket list. Took in Halocene at Slay in Glasgow on Saturday and they were very good. The vocals were outstanding. Then on Tuesday I was in Edinburgh for the Darkness and it's probably one of the best shows I've ever been to. Even the support, Bad Nerves, were top listening 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thirteen years of seeing live music and it's finally happened - I've finally breached the three figure barrier for a ticket. One hundred and five actual human money to see a band. And I never even realised Travis are the support, they should have knocked fifty quid off for that. Still, at least I didn't go for "early standing access" for two hundred and twenty one pounds. I don't care how famous or popular I ever was, I couldn't live with myself if I thought people were paying that much to see me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can bet there are a few I've met that will have / attempted to buy early access for all three dates, will walk out of The Hydro on the Wednesday into a tent and sleep there to be first on Thursday and the Friday. They did the same when they played two days at Falkirk. Nutcases that go to not many other bands but will follow The Killers obsessively. The best part is they're called The Victims. Managed to get tickets for the Friday. With Green Day on the Wednesday and Rammstein in Dublin on that Monday. I can only hope I survive. December I've saw Against The Current on the 4th. Had M&G which was great, band are nice and I kinda love Chrissy Costanza even if she is v.small. Call Me Amour and Lolo were both good support acts. Got The Darkness at the Barras on Monday and that's 28 and done for this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely deranged. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 There has never been a band I've wanted to see badly enough to queue in unpredictable weather all day and stand around for hours before the music starts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's only been two gigs I've turned up at doors opening and both were in Ivory Blacks.

BB_Bino Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Back to see Torridon tonight, this time in Dunfermline and they were even better than the last time, absolutely fantastic but have to say that I was disappointed in the size of the crowd.

Don't get me wrong, I'm.quite often there at doors - especially upstairs in the O2 with the unassigned seats - but I'm.never there hours before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Paramore is the earliest I've been anywhere, an hour and a half before it opened. There were still probably about 2000 people inside already by the time the doors opened. Paws tonight at the Poetry Club in SWG3. I should probably have asked before now, anybody been in there? Is it the same as the other SWG3 venues, you all queue together and go to the bit you're going to when you're in? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
