Anyone else go to concerts in the South West?

[Corin Denton]

I've got a few concerts coming up in the region and I wondered how many others go to gigs in the area?

Coming up so far I have...

1st Feb Bristol Academy - NME tour with Killers, Futureheads, Kaiser Chiefs and Bloc Party (my fave)

6th Mar Plymouth - Paul Weller

7th Mar Exeter Uni - Doves


Can't wait

Ordinary Boys - superb heard they're excellent live.

There are some tickets for Killers going on Ebay if you fancy it? Myself and another PHer Duncan are going up and crashing at the Walkabout Bar so having a few beers in Brizzle that night if you fancy it??

Faithless are coming to Plymouth in April!, as for Glasto I wonder if the same ticket agency will be distributing them this year?

Let's hope not!

although i did get mine via a link posted on ph!

Also booked in for Paul Weller in Plymouth on 6th March. Keeping my fingers crossed that he makes it this time. Tend to follow some local bands, usually a good selection at the Queens Head at Albaston. Always good on a Saturady night!

Really? That's just around the corner from my dad's house in St Annes Chapel?

Yep, that's right met Martin for a yap on Xmas day, beastie that Griff is! The photos are on this forum.

Pistonheads is definately not just TVR, it's for all Petrolheads, you are most welcome here!

Just a quick update to say gig on Tuesday was awesome!

Every band was absolutely excellent, The Killers put on such a show!

Got tickets for the Doves gig at Exeter now too!

Well the last two nights I have had two gigs in a row.
Sunday saw the legendary Paul Weller in Plymouth (must be the 15th time I have seen him) and boy apart from a gig at La Cigale in Paris which was a real up close affair this has been the best yet! This guy is on top form!

As for last night it was the turn of The Doves and to be honest I have never been so diasapointed since I saw Cast!
They were terrible! For a band that puts out consistantly excellent material from the studio their live offering was not up to it!
