Confession Time - First Live Gig & First Record Bought

[HighFidelityGuy]

I went to see Explosions in the Sky in Sheffield on the 7th of Sep. Fantastic gig but not quite as good as their gig in Manchester last year. It never ceases to amaze me how close they can get their live sound to the CD despite their music being highly technical. They must practice a stupid amount to make sure they're spot on. I can't wait till they come back to the UK again. I hear a new album is in the pipeline too, so that's something to look forward to as well.

Mike Chapman at The Green Note, Camden London, last Thursday.

Hadn't see him live for thirty years! Thoroughly enjoyable, Mike is now regularly touring the country, and was in fine form: playing a mixture of favourites as well as new material plus some witty inter-song banter.

From last night gig
Missed the first band
Bigelf A retro hard rock band with ptog elements think Uriah Heep and you be pretty close. Quite enjoyable
Opeath Great as always band really tight I can even handle the Death vocals as they mix it up so much
Dream Theatre Any set what contains Take the Time is going to be a good set list for me. A lot better than last year
It was great watching Mike Portney being so supportive to the other bands I remember Mike from my tape trading days he has a geniune love of music

Last night I was lucky enough to see Cara Dillon in Londonderry. This was the second time I have seen her in the same venue, the millenium forum, a lovely venue.

Cara said again that she enjoys being on her home turf most (she hails from Dungiven, not far away) and it certainly felt she was giving her best for the home crowd!

Anyone who has not yet had the pleasure should check out her music, especially if you like beautiful female vocals with a relaxing but sometimes frantic backdrop!

A fantastic gig, I only hope one day I will see her again.

Just got in from the pub up Sheffield, this particular pub is bang next to Sheffield City Hall. Alice Cooper is playing tonight. The pub was full of pricks dressed as him, i'm glad to get out even though it cut my boozing session in half..For crying out loud why do fans of artists have to dress like em eh!!! immature i say even tho i noticed half were older than me!!
