Listening to some Spock's Beard just now, had a quick look at their website to see if they were touring the UK at any stage in the next year or so.

I see they are playing High Voltage in Hackney the night after tomorrow! Not only that, Thunder, Dream Theater, Judas Priest...

Very tempted!

I went last year and enjoyed it although it was a bit expensive. Not going this year but there are a few bands I would like to have seen, particularly The Enid.

As I came through Leeds airport on Wednesday night Dream Theatre were waiting at passport control whilst their visas were checked. Completely unrecognised so far as I could see.

Yes, £56 for one day is a bit much IMHO, especially as I'd only go for a few hours (not hanging around all day on my own!)

I had no intention of going, then Thunder announced they were supporting Skin at Rock City last Thursday night, which took the guilt away, and yes, Thunder were as good as ever.

Have seen Thunder & Dream Theater before but not for a few years. Never seen the Beard though. Tempting, but I think I'll probably give it a miss.
