Re: 2024-09-20: Brooklyn Paramount, Brooklyn NY, USA

SEEKING OUT THE GUY WHO INSISTED I LOOKED LIKE JG THIRLWELL AND GAVE ME A FREE BOOK AFTER THE SHOW: Thanks for the "Waiting for Another War" book, I read it and found it to be very good. I also did go and listen to some JG Thirlwell music and thoroughly enjoyed it. Now I'm hooked. Both he...

Re: The Worst Gig You've Ever Seen

Having been to 100’s of gigs in my time and having seen 100’s of artists in my time, worst gig award goes to…the bloody Lightning Seeds…..I was off one night and they were playing a headline set at the Garage in Glasgow 1995 (where I lived at the time)…so I went along just as the house lights were c...

Re: What ever present tune in recent ish sets could you happily do without?

Definitely need to drop Jeep/Det and give Ribbons a bloody rest too....I was at the Newcastle gig last year and I was kinda disappointed they are now opening the set with Jeep/Det......its not as if they have a limited back catalogue, and I'm sure they could get something better to replace it.....it...

Re: Doctor Who

I've been watching Dr Who since Tom Baker, (I was watching The Ark In Space only last week).....after watching the new episodes last weekend, I'm even more convinced that the original episodes had so-so acting, terrible effects but brilliant stories.......since 2005, (in my opinion, I hasten to add)...

Re: 2024-09-20: Radio City Music Hall, New York, USA

Pre/Post drinks: That part of town is a bit sh!t owing to its proximity to Times Square. Tentative proposal is Sean's Bar & Kitchen - decent beer/cider selection (anyone ordering Guinness n'Black is put on notice :D ), but open to other suggestions. When I saw The Cure there in 2008 I had pre s...

Looks like it’s sold out….anyone got any suggestions of a pre gig pub? I’ve only lived in Newcastle for a couple of years and I’ve only got a few fave pubs which are nowhere near the venue so any suggestions would be welcome so I can put names to faces…. I’ve also managed to persuade the missus to c...

Re: RSD Reptile House

Just as I thought I would have to buy a copy from some ebay seller for stupid money, I found a record shop in Glasgow had one copy left over from Saturday and kindly put it to one side for me...not sure why I needed another copy to go with my two original copies, but hey-ho!!!

Only thing left is to be lucky and have them on a particular day in good form and shape. I agree with that....I persuaded the missus to come along so for them to be in good form and shape would be grand....especially as she has to endure me banging on about how...err, great they are/were...........
