Confession Time - First Live Gig & First Record Bought

This Wed coming The Human League Sheff City Hall :(

Things us bloked do for our women :rolleyes:

Last night 'Clockwork' at the Wokingham Youth Centre. I was a proud Dad watching my son perform at their EP launch gig. The music is not greatly to my taste (kind of death metal with screaming vocals) and I was probably the oldest person there, but no matter. He plays lead guitar and writes most of the songs.

Afraid I won't be becoming a fan Martin as I just don't "get" that sort of music but well done to your son for the success so far and good luck with the EP.

I have to say I was not dissapointed, he is a very gifted guitarist and well worth seeking out for those that like there blues:).

That must be great
I still go to metal gigs with friends and yes also feel my age these days but good to see youngsters still enjoying live music

Ludovico Einaudi at Leeds Town Hall, sound system was diabolical, waste of time!

The National @ Warwick Arts Centre 25/11, magnificent gig, well worth the wait to see them in such a small venue.

Spear Of Destiny, Rita Lynch, Petrol @ The Fleece Bristol 28/11 (my mate dragged me along), fantastic tiny venue (very CBGBs), support bands were excellent. Petrol, good quality psychobilly/rockabilly (nothing revolutionary there), Rita Lynch, like Patty Smith meets the white stripes, a nice surprise, and finally Spear Of Destiny...well I now realise why I only bought the singles at the time, although they still make a reasonable sound they're 1 saxophonist short of a band...'Liberator' without a saxophone? Nooooo!

The Bunnymen in Brum this coming Saturday, doing Crocodiles & Heaven up Here, my payback for putting up with Kirk and the boys...

I went to see Squeeze (supported by the lightning seeds) last week at Symphony Hall Birmingham. Wow, Glen Tilbrook's voice is AMAZING, (Ian Broudie's isn't)
