frank_spencer Posted November 30, 2017 Posted November 30, 2017 My issue with mainland Europe festivals is there's always a fucking massive downpour/storm there. I've been flooded out of plenty of uk festivals down the years. Quote
Smiley Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) Charlatans stuck in another solid performance on Saturday night at the Apollo. Had technical difficulties after opening song and went off. But came back on within 5-10 mins and then over ran the curfew by 20 mins. Having put the best of my mosh pit days behind me opted for circle tickets upstairs and landed row C. Great view. Perfect access to the very quiet and seemingly still “secret” O2 lounge at the back. Easy to pop in for a beer and back to seats in minutes. Plus added bonus of 2 for 1 with the O2 app on my phone. Great venue!!! Edited December 4, 2017 by Smiley Quote
Carlos Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 Any takers for my spare ticket for Shed 7 tonight at Blackburn? Quote
Dr Faustus Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 Get the fuck in!!!! Shed at Castlefield! Ken out!!! Quote
Smiley Posted December 6, 2017 Posted December 6, 2017 Get the fuck in!!!! Shed at Castlefield! Ken out!!! Aye. Bit of The Twang won't do any harm either. Quote
Dr Faustus Posted December 6, 2017 Posted December 6, 2017 Have listened to Either Way and Heavyweight Champion of the World in past hour!!! Any presale? Quote

Rev did a gig in the back garden of a house in Bolton in the summer. One of my mates went. Story went something like, fan messaged him and asked if he'd play in back garden. Rev replied yes if 20 of your mates buy the new album. They did and he carried it through. Quote

Smiley Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 That's quality Apparently he was chatting and telling stories between each song. All about living with Alex from AM and stuff. Did quite a few cover versions as well. Meant to be a top bloke. Always thought he looked too tall to be a front man - bit awkward to look! Quote

Played in my mates front room in westhoughton about 4 years back for a similar kind of thing. Very enjoyable and he had a good chat and beer with us all after, top bloke Quote
Smiley Posted December 9, 2017 Posted December 9, 2017 Any takers for my spare ticket for Shed 7 tonight at Blackburn? How where they? I’m in for Academy & Castlefield next summer. Quote
Smiley Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 Today I mostly won't be listening to the Glasvegas back catalogue. Quote
Carlos Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 How where they? I’m in for Academy & Castlefield next summer. It was really good, my only gripe is that it's mainly greatest hits rather than the odd track from the back catalogue "for the fans". The Cribs at the Brudenell last night, slightly better venue than Leeds Arena. Not much else booked now apart from At the Drive-In, Sheds at Castlefield and The Cure at Hyde Park all dayer. Quote
Smiley Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 It was really good, my only gripe is that it's mainly greatest hits rather than the odd track from the back catalogue "for the fans". Give James their due, they played a couple of old songs I've never heard before rather than far more popular songs at Albert Halls last night. Quote
Mike Hunt Posted December 21, 2017 Posted December 21, 2017 Today I mostly won't be listening to the Glasvegas back catalogue. That was the worst live music I have ever heard. Painful. Quote

Lost a friend Play Dead Both off Whiplash album. Good to hear both again. Thought they were superb Monday Quote
Smiley Posted December 23, 2017 Posted December 23, 2017 That was the worst live music I have ever heard. Painful. Didn’t meet a single soul who thought otherwise. And what the hell was all that with his mum on stage? Cringeworthy. Shed Seven in top form with plenty of banter between songs last night. And what I did see of Cast, thought they were pretty exceptional. Sounded very powerful. Quote
embankment Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 2 years to the day, Lemmy moved on. The greatest Rock n Roll band ever !!!! Quote
Marc505 Posted December 29, 2017 Posted December 29, 2017 Before my time, but some photos from the Blackburn warehouse party scene that some may remember on here https://britishculturearchive.co.uk/2017/12/21/boomtown-the-blackburn-warehouse-parties-1989-1990/amp/?__twitter_impression=true Quote
