Gigs


I don't normally get to go to many gigs (usually only 1 per year, 2 if I'm lucky), but this last year or so has been quite busy for me. I know that this list is going to be small in comparison to some people's, but I thought I'd share anyway.

20th Nov 08 - Stephen Lynch in Manchester
10th Apr 09 - Rachel Stamp in London
26th May 09 - Nickelback in Birmingham
10th Nov 09 - Muse in Birmingham
22nd Nov 09 (tomorrow) - Rachel Stamp in Birmingham
28th Nov 09 - James Morrison in Birmingham
12 Dec 09 - Rachel Stamp in London
3rd Feb 10 - Rammstien in Birmingham
4th March 10 - Stephen Lynch in Birmingham

Gonna try and get tickets for Muse at Wembley next year as well.

No real reason for this post, just thought I'd share.

Yeah, I used to go and watch them quite a lot back in the day (before they took a break). Now that they've reformed for a mini tour (4 dates in all I think) I thought I'd go and see them again. They only play to small crowds (100ish) although for the comeback gig in April, they managed to sell out the Islington Academy which I think has a capacity of about 800-1000.

Steven Lynch is awsome!!

This year I went to... wait, no... I got scammed and couldn't go to the Reading Festival Got tickets for next year though!

Haven't been to many gigs in my life and those were a few years back! The Maccabees were good though, and the Guilimotts, Jimmy Cliff, Jack Penyate, Interpol, Faithless (awesome)... I think that's about it!!

My Dad's band were good friends with Ozric Tentacles and supported them for 80% of their gigs.

Nope. Never been to a gig in my entire life. Never been to any convention. I have never been in an audience, lol.
