Was hoping to get Liam Gallagher tickets, even pre-ordered his album to get access to pre-sale but didn't get any.

Assuming youre a big Stuffies fan? I like the nod to Room 512... a song I still play on the guitar all these years later, and no one has a clue what it is! Great song, great band in the day.... might have to look up the Miles Hunt nights...

Ha ha, yes you got me. Still a great band now by the way.

There's a new Miles and Erica album out in a couple of days so they are touring that over September and October. Usually a great mix of music including Stuffies tracks and stories.

Wolf Alice, excellent at the tiny tavistock wharf tonight on one of their current run of intimate gigs.
Been following them for years, since the first EP. All their gigs used to be intimate.

Been struggling to find good gigs to go to latter half of this year. I've got Mastodon and Memoriam in December but not much before that.

On the bright side I'm all paid up for next year's Download, Bloodstock and End of the Road festivals with the money I have saved on gigs and I've saved a little bit overall on them as I managed to snag the first batch of early birds for all three.

I really dislike the way Download festival is ran (it was better this year than previous years) but it is the only practical way for me to see a number of the bands that are on the Download line up.

Bloodstock and End of the Road are two of the best ran festivals anywhere even though the music (and audience) are very different.

More my daughter's kind of stuff but got into them myself now. Seen them a few times and going again in November. It was good to see a band on the up going back to play a small venue.

Don't park in the multi storey next to the venue, it takes an hour to get out

If you go to level 8 / top floor it has a seperate exit

One more for me this year - Depeche Mode at the O2 in November.

Last time I saw them was the Violator tour, back in my student days!
