Just bought tickets for Bryan Ferry at the Royal Albert Hall on November 4th 2013. Not many tickets left so hurry. There are dates for other venues around the country.

Saw him a few years ago and he was dazzling.

I'm very much wondering when we will see a series of artists releasing dates based around the Midlands instead of the centre of the multiverse (thats shuts down at 11pm) called London?
Anyways - I am about to travel down there twice again in February for the gigs at the Tate Modern - Kraftwerk.
Through a complete succession of lemony snicketts, after several hours on the telephone and getting more frustrated by the minute reading the rubbish being put out by Tate on the social media sites - I got through to a queue. Twenty minutes later saw me talking to a human. Not many tickets available so 2 of us were going to The Mix. Sent a text only to discover he had just got them for Autobahn..
While trying to make it difficult for Touts / Scalpers I see plenty going for really silly money on Viago / evilbay. Scum does not even begin to cover what those parasites are.
I know there are a few here that attend the Dorset End of the Road festival, so thought I would post this.
Just confirmed today are Sigur Rós and Belle & Sebastian () as two headline acts. There are other acts confirmed, which you can check here;

Sigur Rós
Looking forward to Sigur Rós, but you can keep B&S, that will be an early night for me as I think they are . . . . .![]()

@ Alex,
Hi, as you may know I don't look in here very often, not being a gig attender, so apologies if it's been said before but wouldn't this thread be improved by being calendar based? Dates across the top and acts own the side in alphabetical order. Perhaps restrict mods to updating it based on info supplied by members. The calendar could update itself automatically datewise, dropping those acts with no future entries and when new entries were made they would automatically be placed in the correct alphabetical order.
Clicking on any act/date square would open up a new box giving gig venue ad other (supporting) acts etc.
Do we have any members capable of putting such a thing together?
Just a thought.
Dave.

And what should mods do with all of their spare time after they've done managing that then Dave?
Well speaking as a regular gig attendee and contributor to this thread, I think its fine as it is to be honest![]()
