chrisp65 Posted July 13, 2012 Author Share Posted July 13, 2012 just for info., BBC 'be in an audience' web page currently showing free tickets for a Blur gig 31st July. It's a lucky dip draw, but as its free why not have a punt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you leave it running it plays on to the next track too, actually the end of midlife crisis i think is different to Hammersmith, and then Be Agressive and Caffeine weren't at Hammersmith but.. watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svenne Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Saw the boss last night and the night before that. **** magical. The last night, 28th when he played Jungleland as a tribute to Clarence (with nephew Jake on the sax) was immense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante_Lockhart Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Went to an outdoor gig at Eastnor Castle on Saturday and caught 10cc and Status Quo. Was a really good gig to be fair! Great atmosphere too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted July 30, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted July 30, 2012 Somehow only realised today that Muse are releasing a new album in September. I regret deciding against going to see them on my birthday three (I think) years ago, so had a look at tickets... £60+ :shock: Think I may get tickets to watch Omar Rodriguez Lopez Group in Nottingham, though. £11 is slightly more reasonable!

mjmooney Posted August 9, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted August 9, 2012 Should You See Your Favorite 60s Band Play in 2012? By Juli Weiner and Bruce Handy 5:06 PM, August 6 2012 There are three ways that a concert by a band whose last top-40 hit occurred in 1969 could go. One: the band insists, like the Allman Brothers, on playing mostly new, mostly uninteresting stuff. Two: the group dutifully plays its hits, has minimal interaction with the audience, and appears as if they’re performing under torture (cf., Pavement). And three: the band plays its hits, acknowledges its former pop glory with good-natured levity, encourages the crowd to sing along, and sneaks in some short (short!) new stuff. The Zombies, who are currently touring the United States and the United Kingdom and played a wonderfully fun show last night at New York’s Highline Ballroom, fit squarely in category three. Best of all, they played their hits with genuine verve, not like they were sick of running through them for 47 billionth time. With the exception of the beloved, sorely missed “The Way I Feel Inside,” yesterday evening the band played every song we hoped they would: “She’s Not There,” “Tell Her No,” “This Will Be Out Year,” “Care of Cell 44,” and “Time of the Season.” Another positive: they did not play “Butcher’s Tale (Western Front 1914).” Also, Blunstone sang a beautiful, nearly a cappella “Summertime.” Members of the band did not appear to want each other dead—most even casually mentioning involvement in solo and/or side projects without earning any discernible frowns, eye rolls, or impolite hand gestures from other members. In fact, a high point was the group’s enthusiastic take on founding member Rod Argent’s solo hit “Hold Your Head Up,” which one of your reviewers remembered well from high school—and may have danced to while wearing puka shells—and your other reviewer thought she knew from Dazed and Confused but was maybe confusing that movie with Joe Dirt, which did feature “Hold Your Head Up.” Anyway, it rocked. There was nary a puka shell—nary a piece of non-conservative attire—at last night’s show. Like dogs and their owners, the audience at a concert tends to resemble the performing band. The way you might wear Nantucket Reds to see Vampire Weekend, you might throw on some hastily applied eyeliner to watch Morrissey. At the Zombies show, everyone wore button-down shirts, Nice Jeans, perhaps a suit jacket, and a sensible yet stylish pair of shoes. It’s fun when the band wants the crowd to have good time. It’s nice when everyone, on-stage and in the audience, is wearing their Nice Jeans for a reason. Vanity Fair, oddly enough. I saw 'em a few weeks ago, and they were indeed splendid.
