Gigs Thread

Saw Caligula's horse and sleepmakeswaves the other night. Was fantastic prog

 

Seeing protest the hero this weekend and just bought tickets to Dillinger escape plans final tour

 

Not exactly a gig but got tickets for the Glasgow science centres Dark side of the moon fulldome experience, should be pretty cool so looking forward to it.

Got deftones tonight at SECC. Gutted about the venue but deftones are * awesome

 

Went along to Maximo Park in Aberdeen tonight. I was surprised with the setlist as they missed out a lot of big songs. Most of the new stuff struggled.

If you are going along in Glasgow tomorrow night don't waste your time with the support. They were *.

 

Going to see Subway To sally in Stuttgart in December.

 

Went to see Luke Sital Singh tonight in Aberdeen.

He was very good. I did expect a longer set though. Missed out tracks I wanted to hear.

Came across as a decent guy during the show and was nice to meet afterwards too.

He's in Glasgow in a couple of nights from now. Go along if you like acoustic music.

 

Went to see The Afghan Whigs the other week. It's not a band I was even familiar with. I got a couple of albums to listen to, bit wasn't impressed.

Live I was surprised how good they were. I really enjoyed the gig.

I also went (with her) to see Robbie Williams of Friday night. It did remind me why I hate stadiums for gigs.

He was alright actually. I was surprised after all these years he still had to do so many covers and stretch out a lot of the show.

£72 a ticket is taking the *.

 

He still had the crowd in the palm of his hand for most of the night.

It built up well, then fell flat, then improved later.

When all the women joined in it was a good atmosphere. They really make some noise.

His new stuff must be weak. He didn't do many new songs. The song for his daughter got people going, but the one for his son died a death.

He can't be doing too badly when 60,000 people are still willing to buy stupidly expensive tickets.

 

I haven't seen him live before other than on tv. I can't gauge how good or bad it was in comparison.

It seemed people had a great night. It was genuinely loud with vast participation. The crowd was as loud as any gig I've been and they all stayed behind to party as well.

The only Scottish song he did was 500 Miles during the encoure.

Rolling his dad out did seem lame, a few songs were poor and stealing the face mask talking didn't work.

One Direction didn't last that long and their farewell tour was the Hydro and not a stadium tour.

 

* that sounds class, so many good prog and post-rock bands coming out of Australia man.

 

Might get tickets for this

 

Going to rainbow tonight.
Richie Blackmore!!!!!!

 

They still together?Thatll be great.

 

Still think it was wrong that he shagged his brothers mrs

 

Back for 4 shows.
Young singer mind but he was great. Nailed his dio.
Plus they played a couple of deep purple too

 

Went to see ELO at the Hydro the other night. Were fantastic again. Generally I prefer heavier stuff like AC/DC, Metallica, Maiden etc but they really were outstanding. 1hr 45mins of hit after hit after hit, atmosphere both in and outside the venue was fantastic.

Support act was Tom Chaplain (ex-Keane frontman). He did around 30mins, some of his songs were a bit "samey" but you cant deny the lad can sing. Far better vocally than pretty much all of the chart pish nowadays and I include that wee ginger screecher in that.

 

My uncle got me into ELO. Class band.
