Davkaus Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 I've got Tenacious D tickets at the weekend, first time ever going to hospitality for a gig which will feel a bit weird, not something I'd ever have bought myself but it was a gift, I think I'll be looking enviously at the floor at times but should be good fun 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've no idea what's in his current set but I can't help but love him. A total oddball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife & I still regularly watch the HBO episodes where they made their name. Hilarious stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Driving back to Birmingham tomorrow for the Big Special gig at XOYO in Digbeth (a venue I’ve not been to before) Really looking forward to seeing BS and them showcasing their album released the following day. Caught them last year supporting John in Exeter and they were phenomenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarethRDR Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Got this 'un in London tonight, but thanks to overtime strikes I'll probably be missing about 30 minutes of the main act. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whelp, looks like I monkey-pawed myself here. Got to see the entirety of LDC's (absolute banger) set, because Leech (who I was kinda more excited to see) apparently got into a car crash on the way (they're all fine and their equipment also survived) so had to cancel the rest of the tour. Feck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping we'd get the band instead, but we got this bloke as well. Got a couple of laughs early on, but it was a half an hour set that had less than 5 minutes of material in it, I'd rather have been punched in the dick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not that miffed, I'm guessing that she's doing these smaller venues because it'll be the instrumental album (the last one), mostly. I like it, but it's kind of not really a full gig kind of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think theres still Liverpool tickets left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
