dAVe80 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Oh my! The Breeders are touring the UK, playing in Leeds in May. My boner is only killed slightly by it being at one of my least favourite venues, Stylus at the uni. Gonna have to make the effort though I think. #teamkim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of the year is a british country music gig on saturday in Manchester. One of the acts is Ags Connolly who produced one of my favourite albums of the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xann Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Quote Ticketmaster describes Verified Fan as a way for “real fans to get exclusive ticket access to see their favourite shows”. You have to register, and then, if you are selected, you receive a unique code giving you access to a special pre-sale. The company says it is a highly effective way of clamping down on touts and computer “bots” – the software used to harvest tickets in bulk for resale at rip-off prices. Guardian Ticketmaster want to decide how big a fan you are? Just bend over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted January 29, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) Can't decide between NOS Alive and Rock Werchter this year. Arctic Monkeys to be announced for both festivals this week. Both line-ups look incredible, but RW has Nick Cave, NIN and Arctic Monkeys all on the same day. Pretty awesome.

I believe NOS Alive is already sold out if that makes your decision any easier ..I was looking at going for Pearl Jam and it said sold out , but that might just be on the 3 day tickets Mad Cool fest in Madrid has a decent line up as a plan B ... also keeps your eye on I-Days in MIlan .. got Noel Gallagher Thurs Night and Liam Gallagher on the Fri night ... now they've sorta kissed and made up , you never know one might join the other on stage !!!

They still need to release the Hotel + Ticket packages for NOS so was hoping to pick one of those up when they are released. Seeing the Gallagher bro's together on stage again would be awesome. Though I did read they had fell out again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xann Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Thee Hypnotics are touring. Garage Rock band late 60s style, own material, bit of swagger about them at their peak, not to be taken entirely seriously. @Rugeley Villa this is the sort of band you were ruing the absence of? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tip for Rock Werchter, book into the Novotel in Leuven. Its 2 mins walk from where the buses leave for the festival site and quite a few of the bands were using it too. Good festival, me and blandy went about ten years ago Book it early though for obvious reasons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakotaDakota Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Went to see Gaga last night, She is very good at what she does and not many people these days do 2 1/2 hour+ shows. A bit too much talking but it was being filmed for TV/DVD so guessing she was just saying everything she wanted to say & may well edit some out later. Have somehow eneded up going to see her again tonight too :/ Merchandise really is getting rediculous at some gigs now, £20 for a poster, £30+ for a hat, £50 for a t-shirt & £70 for a sweatshirt/Hoodie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Jim Jones? I saw them as a younger, a more melodic brother of Loop. Unsure I would see them again, but may be tempted if they come locally.

Quote For the first time in 20 years, the classic line-up of Thee Hypnotics has reformed for a 15-date tour set to take place across March and April. The line-up, consisting of co-founders Jim Jones (vocals) and Ray Hanson (guitar), with Phil Smith (drums) and Jeremy Cottingham (bass), will tour across the UK following a pair of dates in France on March 29 and 30. Kicking off at Leicester's Sounhouse on March 31, they will then take in dates in Newcastle, Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds and London, before finishing off at Ramsgate Music Hall on April 15.
