Gig Plans - 2020

[chilistrucker]

I'm toying with going to the Royal Albert Hall on the 24th of November to see Soul 2 Soul. Always liked them, but have never seen them live, and its on the eve of my 50th.

Should I do it?

Its these or Deacon Blue, a couple of weeks earlier, also at the Royal Albert Hall.

Time warp or what? I never got to see either of these at the time. I desperately wanted to see Deacon Blue, but couldn't for various reasons. I keep meaning to book a "retro" festival, but my wife doesn't like looking back so much. Although she's coming around to the idea more recently.

Saw Deacon Blue at CarFest North a few years ago now. Very good :-)

We're hoping they announce more dates too.

In the meantime, we've got tickets for Rammstein and Green Day, but we can't see MCR. I said to her we should book some Meatloaf tickets to make up for the disappointment. Well, two out of three ain't bad...

3rd, and final, UK date announced, goes on sale Thursday:

Not seen them live, but I have a live recording from a few years ago and they sound pretty good.

GnR fan club (nightrain) have a presale link, when you’re paying £140 for a golden circle ticket, what’s another £30 to join the fan club

i’ve bought those tickets for dublin and berlin in previous years, well worth the extra £50!

I'm gonna have to get for glasgow on the 31st, payday thankfully. Also need painting done on my car, just bought a new bumper & going to be buying an intercooler.

Noodles for a month it is Going to Green Day the night before, so I'll be annoyed if I don't get tickets!

Now looking for the cheapest way from Manchester to Glasgow!

[Big Purple Dinosaur]

So far got:

Stereophonics in Sheffield end of Feb
Dua Lipa (going with daughter!) in early June
Crowded House in late June

Doing OK so far for January...

[marcosgt]

I just added 'Goan Dogs' at the Boiler Room in Guildford on 15th Feb.

I felt I needed some live music to lift my January blues...

I hate this time of the year, it's just grey skies and bills, bills, bills, bills, bills and I've not even got a ski holiday to look forward to this year...

I can totally relate, first year in a long time I haven't arranged a ski trip, terrible mistake!

[CardShark]

Friends and I have just booked tickets for Camel Power Club in April. I'm not a massive gig goer TBH however I'm really, really looking forward to it!

[motorizer]

Wildhearts + backyard babies tonight.

Got my tickets for GnR in Glasgow, can't wait. Saw 'them' on the Chinese Democracy tour and unlike a lot of people, I absolutely loved it!
