[Gregor]

Allo Darlin’ in Ramsgate in October, matinee show so no legging it uphill for the last train home

[ZRX61]

Just found out W1P is playing again in June or July, same venue, I shall be there. They actually playing in Oxnard next week, but that's 100 miles away.

[Mr Moofo]

I'm slightly embarrassed to say that the last gig I went to was in Kirstenbosch In Cape Town , and a band called Mango Groove.

Apparently the real deal in South Africa ... but I won't be buying any of their choons. The Clash, they weren't

[MrLongbeard]

Nowt.

Tried to get Luke Combs Manchester tickets, 2 people, 1 PC, 2 laptops, 3 tablets and 2 phones, access to 2 different early access events and bombed out, next day they were for sale by scalpers at more than 10 times face value guess I'll have to do something else on my 50th.

It would have been my first live music event in 35 years, but fuck 'em, it's not worth the time or aggro.

More tickets to be released tommoz, so maybe..........

[Docca]

I've been reliably informed by the Gremlinette that those legends of the UK music scene, Top Loader and Dodgy are appearing at the legendary Priory Live in Orpington come August.

Might have to go, just for shit and giggles.

I've got tickets of Eels end of March.

[mikeycee]

Travelled to Iceland for the weekend to have a bit of an explore and see these two live for the first time

[gremlin]

Nile Rodgers in Brighton, July. Seen him before. Bloody hell, he's one funked up dude.

[Tricky]

Just got back from seeing Billy Ocean- he moves a lot slower than he did in the 70s and 80s, but, well so do a lot of us on here eh!

The voice is still there and he is still a seriously cool (old ) dude - a great night

Nile Rodgers in Brighton, July. Seen him before. Bloody hell, he's one funked up dude.

Saw him as part of Chic about 10 years ago at a rave space in Manchester on the same bill as a lot of techno/breakbeat acts. He wiped the floor with the lot of them.

Yeah, the speed he was (not ) moving, not sure there would be any " Get on the back seat baby" any more

Great night though, top fun, and what surprised me was that it wasn't just pensioners in the audience * - there were a good number of young-uns (relative term ) there too

* (there were of course absolutely shit-loads of pensionable age people there too though )

[Greenman]

I was going to comment that it reminded me of seeing Bunny Wailer at Smile Jamaica a few years ago, he was bouncing, but a quick google reminded me that Smile Jamaica was 15yrs ago and Dunny Wailer was only 61 then, whereas Billy Ocean is 73.

Bunny is also dead now, died last year i think...

Was one of my fav reggae artists.

Didnt know he was touring, but too late, he's sold out his show near us in April. Shame.I'd have love to have seen him.

I've got tickets of Eels end of March.

Fantastic gig, Eels on top form and set list / sound / vibe were all more than I'd expected. 10/10

AND - the real bonus was the support act, The Inspector Cluzo a couple of farmers from Gascony. Sort of a cross between White Stripes and John Otway & Wild willy Barret

Here's a little taster that shows the style.
they did an hour set which included crowd surfing..



Anyone who has a song called "RUNNING A FAMILY FARM IS MORE ROCK THAN PLAYING ROCK N ROLL MUSIC" gets my vote.



Go check them out. They'll make you smile.

Chris McCausland, tonight
