Gig Plans - 2017

[minky monkey]

Just bought tickets to see Evil Scarecrow in February, plus I've have tickets for the Camden Rocks festival which is always a laugh.

Got Ghost and Dream Theater booked at the moment - with Whiskey Myers looking likely too. Plenty of other gigs that I may go to as well. Dillinger are a potential but I never really got into them, and as I believe it is their last tour I'll probably let true fans have the tickets instead! Frank Carter I think is already sold out which is a shame. Mammoth Weed Wizard bd I may very well go to.

Are you going to ataris or seaway in January?

Going to Ghost & Dream Theater too. London?

Also off to see Jaga Jassist end of the month.

Anthrax in February.

And although not a gig...fingers crossed, but...hopefully doing Tomorrowland in July too.

The wildhearts gig at Manchester that I missed due to seeing clutch was rescheduled anyway... so I get to go after all.

Just booked tickets for the fishing for luckies show in Nottingham in a couple of weeks.
And also for Ryan Hamilton at the start of March.

Nope... at some point I will say yes when you ask these questions and hell will freeze over!

Trip to London in July. U2 Saturday then Tom Petty on Sunday. Should be a good weekend.Rainbow in Birmingham at the end of June and,likely, that's me done for the year when the ticket costs and travel expenses are factored in.

Saw The Boys at the 100 Club a couple of weeks ago. Got The Ataris on 25th January and 6th February. I'm possibly going to get a ticket Frank Carter & the Rattlesnakes at Koko in March but I'm not sure if I'm free at the moment.

[oldbanger]

So far this is it for me:

February - Black Sabbath (Barclaycard Arena)
December - Parov Stelar (AllyPally)

I am really looking forward to Black Sabbath!

A double dose of the ataris here also.

Got invited to see 'the white bufallo' last night at shepherds bush empire, excellent gig. He has a few dates dotted around in good sized venues and well worth seeing.

Country, blues, rock thing, really tight 3 piece.

Also added Soul 2 Soul next week at Northampton, bit of an obscure one location wise.

Which ones are you doing? Always make a point of seeing Kris perform when he's over here, Blue Skies and End is Forever were the soundtrack of my youth!

[rscott]

3 planned so far this year.

1. Imelda May - Ipswich, in May.
2. Robbie Williams - Stratford, June.. (not my choice, family thing.)
3. Elbow - Thetford Forest, June.

Have noticed the cost of the Forestry Commission gigs are creeping upward. This'll be the 4th I've been to in about 6 years (Plan B, Paloma Faith, Rudimental were the others) and tickets have gone up from £25 to £41 each. The £4 per ticket booking fee is a joke too...

Robbie Williams in June at the Ricoh Arena.
Erasure in support, couldn't believe it whenI booked the tickets. Bonus!!

Sunday - went to Cardiff for a day to remember, new found glory , neck deep and moose blood.

Moose Blood - i've seen them quite a few times the last couple of years and despite having decent songs they just bore me , none of them seem to be enjoying themselves.

Neck Deep- generic pop punk , fun for the 1st few songs then they all blend into each other.

New Found Glory - disapointing, live the lack of a lead guitarist and none of the band wanting to do backing vocals on the chorus's really stands out. Loads of energy but there are gaping big gaps in the sound where there should be cheesy chorus's and lead guitar.

A Day to Remember - they put on a full on cheesy rock show , the perfect blend ( for me) of heavy and catchy .

Tonight back to Bristol for the ataris.

Interpol at ally pally.

Maybe the Killers and Elbow at Hyde Park.?

Not much this year for me!
