Gig Plans - 2017
Discussion
it could have been our position in the arena but the majority of people I spoke to that were there and facebook feedback echoed my sentiments.
I actually thought at first he was using a harmonizer as something just didn't sound "right" it could well have been the mix but it was really bad for us which is a shame - it was my 8th maiden gig so I can forgive them a poor night if that's what it was

Amber Run last night, supported by a band I didn't catch the name of, and Seafret.
Third time seeing Seafret, and in all honesty the only reason I went! Seafret were great, but noticed the bass was a bit heavy. When Amber Run came on, it was too bassy to hear the lead singer properly, which was a shame.
Really nice to get a seat at the gig and just chill out though, especially as I was on my own.

That was my thought (or hope) for next year - Prophets would be great.
Prophets of Rage are a seriously good gig! Saw them in Berlin earlier this year, can't make Kentish Town so we're really hoping for more UK dates.I have Gogol Bordello/Lucky Chops and Alice Cooper coming up. Hopefully Postmodern Jukebox next year too.

PoR was a real fun gig. Went to Brixton with Matt172 in the summer.Been talked into Opeth for my son, quite like the Sorceress so didn't need that much convincing. Also been talked into Moose Blood by my daughter.
Booked Machine Head and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah for me. Hoping to book Paradise Lost on Friday when the tickets go on sale, their new album is much better than the recent efforts with the return of a heavier sound.
Very tempted to book Hellfest for next year. Would mean I do Download the travel to France for Le Mans, couple of days off in France, then Hellfest traveling back to the UK Monday morning. Think it would be a great two weeks and a bit off.
Updated list:
Current list looks like:
October - Metallica for my son
November - Opeth, Morbid Angel
December - Mastodon, Memoriam, Prodigy
Feb - Front Bottoms for my daughter
March - Moose Blood, Cannibal Corpse, Belle and Sebastian
May - Machine Head, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
June - Download for my son
August - Bloodstock
August - End of the Road for my daughter

saw them the 1st time round a few times, Leeds University I think, and I'm sure it was just a bit cheaper than that! Got guest-list tickets to see Gary Numan at Brixton on Saturday. I'm told they may be backstage tickets. I've been nagging my mate in the industry to get these for me since the tour was announced.
Really looking forward to it, I'm about the same age as him, grew up with his early music. Love the way his sound has changed and developed, if he plays Down in the Park and Love Hurt Bleed I'll be happy as a pig in poo.
Just seen Goldfrapp mentioned above, would really like to see her/them. Might have a look whether there are any tickets yet (or bend matey's ear again!).

From the playlists I’ve seen so far, you will not be disappointed, I’m really pissed off missing him this time around.Really looking forward to it, I'm about the same age as him, grew up with his early music.

Never thought of Googling setlists. I was kind of expecting a run through Savage and a few more thrown in but looks like he's going right across the back catalogue. That's excellent news, ta!

Tickets still available for their UK gigs except for Manchester, Bristol and Brighton. Would definitely recommend seeing them live!Gassing Station | Music | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
