Off to see Jay Z tonight, hope he smashes it but not really expecting to much to be honest, don't really think hip hop works that well in big live arenas.

Its at the LG Arena Birminghams ( NEC )

Last time I went to the LG it took ages to get out the car park afterwards, anybody know any good parking places near by? thx in adv.

Devastated I did the 'wise' thing and decided to save money for Glasto. They were supported by the Coral!

That one gig, Coral/Supergrass is a better line up than the entire Glasto line up!

Goin to see Keane at 02 Acadmey on Wednesday night

Loved their first album, everything since then has been utter, utter garbage for me. :( Still, music's subjective so here's hoping you'll have a good time! Don't know if the support acts are any good, haven't heard of either of them; The Helio Sequence and K'naan... who apparently did that **** awful song from the Roger Milla advert/FIFA World Cup game! :shock:

Am I the only one that has stopped taking pictures and video at gigs? I stopped doing it a while ago and I enjoy them much more. Less worry about getting a good pic or video and more time spent enjoying myself instead. Just how I began to see it. :D

drive by truckers-academy saturday 10th november-I am GOING to this even if i haveto go by myself they are my favourite band around, just been trying to get tickets but I think the website has crashed

black rebel motorcycle club-academy tuesday 10th december-I am going to try my best to get to this one but my mate said he cant give me the money back untill he gets paid next so im hoping the tickets are still there

ocean colour scene-academy sometime in february-I wouldnt mind going to see this they are playing the whole of the mosely schoals album and were the first band I went to see live so it would be pretty good but £25 is quite steep and I dunno if any one would be interested in coming to see them with me

Whats the new academy like? I just can't bring myself to go - the old smelly academy with it's sticky floors and weird smell was great, and I just think that the new one will be all shiny and characterless.

It's almost exactly the same as the last one when you're inside! Simon Neil from Biffy commented on it when saw them last time.

When I got back from the Vienna home leg last week I did some comfort gig ticket buying and booked tickets for this little lot:

Dinosaur Pileup - 10th October @ Hare & Hounds

Imogen Heap - 5th November @ Royal Albert Hall

Jimmy Eat World - 21st November @ Academy (was HMV Institute)

The Sword - 1st December @ Academy

Skin - 16th December @ Academy

Orange Goblin - 17th December @ The Asylum

Also wanna get tickets for Skunk Anansie in November and poss Band Of Horses next Feb, I think it is.
