Ob La Di Ob La Da. Possibly one of their more heartfelt titles McCarthorse was in town at the weekend, with James Corden doing that stupid car programme, he also played a greatest hits set in the Philhramonic Pub. Fortunately this was roughly the same time as Lee Scratch Perry was on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted June 15, 2018 Moderator Share Posted June 15, 2018 I appear to be going to see the Psychedelic Furs tomorrow night, a band I haven't seen since.... I think 1984 (I'm basing that on album dates) Another freebie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted June 17, 2018 Moderator Share Posted June 17, 2018 I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised as to how good The Psychedelic Furs were, one of the tightest bands I’ve seen in a long time. And Richard Butler was clearly in his element and enjoying himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Bit of a long shot, but if anyone fancies a ticket to Stone Sour at Rock City tonight, mine is going free to a good home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart_75 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Saw Pearl Jam for the first time last night. Eddie's voice was on the way out (tonight's show postponed), but all in all thoroughly enjoyed it. Its been a long 25yrs waiting to finally see them live. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't spot that the wednesday got cancelled. I know someone who couldn't go and was trying to offload his ticket. I kinda hope he didn't now for his sake if they are coming back in July.

imavillan Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Just booked some tickets for this. Well looking forward to this one. Never been to the RNCM before but from reading up on it seems to be a good intimate venue. Barry Adamson Monday 29 October, doors 7.00pm RNCM Theatre To celebrate the release of his upcoming brand new album later this year, Barry Adamson will headline two intimate shows at Manchester’s RNCM and London’s Union Chapel. October 2018 marks the release of a brand new Barry Adamson anthology which brings together tracks from post punk legends Magazine, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds alongside classic Adamson tracks from throughout his solo career including I Got Clothes – A Certain Ratio Rework which was playlisted by 6Music for five weeks, Jazz Devil, The Big Bamboozle and The Man With The Golden Arm. Barry Adamson has been creating all of his life. Perhaps his greatest creation is himself as a multi-disciplined artist. The self-taught musician rose to prominence as the bass player in Magazine and toured extensively. His establishment as a solo artist came after a three year stint with Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and heralded the release of his seminal first solo album, Moss Side Story. Critically-acclaimed, it raised Adamson’s name as a composer of diverse complexity; able to tell a story with music, where the images were those supplanted in the minds of the listeners. Offers quickly followed and saw Adamson work with some of the film industry’s most intriguing mavericks including Derek Jarman, David Lynch, Oliver Stone and Danny Boyle. Having released nine studio albums, including the 1992 Mercury Music Prize nominated Soul Murder, Adamson has continued to tour globally with his talents being in as much demand by new generations of artists, as he was after his first solo release. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted June 25, 2018 Moderator Share Posted June 25, 2018 @imavillanwonder if he'll play any Visage? It never seems to get mentioned in his career retrospectives much. Might see if I can get tickets for that too as he's been involved in some fantastic bands / projects in his career 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of it was funny but there were a couple of songs in there that missed the mark, and then subsequently seemed to go on for way too long. So that kind of padded it out a bit. Plus a few classics were missing which was also a shame. But still brilliant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a lot of new stuff, which can be a little frustrating, but I enjoyed most of them. Agree on missing classics which would have made it brilliant! Arenas though - how many idiots a) can’t find their seats, b) have to constantly get up to go to loo/beer and c) leave before the end?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
