[emilystrange]

Dead Kennedys next week

[emilystrange]

Dead Kennedys were absolutely blumming brilliant.
12 hours between killing the poor and nazis in Cambodia and having to start teaching One Direction song to kids for a concert

[Pista]

Teh Mish tonight for the second instalment.
If it's even half as good as last night it's going to be superb

[EmmaPeelWannaBe]

Some old goff band in LA on the 15th & SF on the 17th.

Cruel World in Pasadena on the 20th.

[Damaged+Done]

Off to see Loop in Dublin tonight. At least that's the plan but as the afternoon is going to be spent at a whiskey tasting event, the magic 8 ball is currently saying 'Ask again later'

[LyanvisAberrant]

Diamond black playing at cerne abbas brewery festival in spetember. Unexpected! Definitely thinking of going to this one

[eastmidswhizzkid]

not music but football. off up to Liverpool on Saturday to watch the womens team play their last game of the season. big party afterwards by the Supportes Club the president of which i am a close personal friend and guest of.

[Planet Dave]

Currently pondering a trip to the Brudenell for a likely painful afternoon watching United v City in the FA Cup final. You've kinda got to, but it might get messy.

edit : fortunately it was sunnier outside than in.

[Incoming!]

This week up to Denver to see some obscure band that has an entire Forum dedicated to it. What's with that?

Contemplating a trip to Hawaii if I don't get put in hospital for exhaustion. Maybe just a transfer to policy - where no one wants to go, but doesn't require much effort or thought.

Otherwise, the usual.

[Rantz Hoseley]

My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult were f**king aces. They are starting up another leg of their tour and I highly recommend it, if they come to your town. Setlist was mostly the first two albums and 13 Above The Night.

oh, and now we have Love & Rockets on the 20th of this month.

Then we're done with Summer Goff Season.

[sultan2075]

Supposed to see Franz Ferdinand at a really small venue tonight, but I woke up feeling ill (hopefully just allergies). I've got tickets to see Love and Rockets on Sunday night, and hopefully will be over whatever it is I've got by then (assuming it isn't allergies).

[Incoming!]

Okay. Now I got this wild hair idea of seeing TSOM in London in September. Anyone know the place they will play in Camden? Decent? Just flat out not worth it? What are the people like?

I saw the Cure in Frankfurt in 1989, grand show. But I lived there so it only cost ticket price.

Thanks for any feedback.

Which show? Or both?
I think if you ask about in the London threads in the 2023 board, you'll get a lot of interesting information

went to see Ghost with son after getting home from the ladies weekend away. i was tired he hadn't taken his meds since the weekend so came home and when he was talking s**t called him out on it *quite loadly as i shout to bring a message over when i'm tired...anyhoo...
Ghost! never seen them live but did my research after the ins and outs surrounding this place and the rumour that Chris and Ben had played for them in previous years so always excited that there might be a link even if a rumour...
what a f**king incredible performance they put on
from smoke to fireworks to actual fire and then ended with confetti...i kid you not! i was so pleasantly surprised by their show that was slightly theatrical even i really had an awesome time.
even bought the t-shirt and that means they impressed moi!
if you are friends with me on fb you can see what i mean. look they cover certain songs which i usually am not a fan of but when they do it in their way...f**king ace! they want to entertain the audience which sisters could make a few notes how.
awesome gig, mixed crowd with many fathers there with their daughters but hey hey what a gig!
lol my son thought it would be really hard rock
son do your research babe! love your boomer mother

[primasvisage]

if I'm not rain delayed (this isn't a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure after all) I would love to get back to Highland Park (old swinging grounds by Mr T.'s Bowling) and see Mike Watt and the Missingmen. I don't expect him to be wearing a pumpkin on his head , but he's known to indulge Halloween in a serious way that is : astonishing.
look/see, truly a bodily force and so musically minded.
they're opening for Pere Ubu at the Lodge Room on the 22nd of june.

(I don't know Ghost, only from mentioning, but:

)

[ruffers]

I've just been offered a free ticket for Morrissey tonight. Will tick a box as I never saw the Smiths or him before but I'm hoping he manages to not get political too soon as I'll be heading out for a burger if he kicks off.

well imagine that! could not go see Ghost in Europe (cause of work) and now we have tickets to Ghost in Denver! Excited! so apparently the place has very good acoustics so I am really looking forward to it:) that's coming up August 8th

[Big Si]

Brother in Law arrives at the Airport in 'Auld Reekie' on Thursday morning, then after a Train to 'Raintown', a Fish Supper and a Night on my Sofa Bed, we catch an early Train to Fort William on Friday and then go for a Long Walk to Inverness. You never know, we might even spot 'Nessie'

The venue is really good. About 3000 capacity with ceiling lighting that looks like the Mothership from Close Encounters. The band have played there many times before and both band and venue seem to suit each other well.

Many of us do both nights, and sometimes the band do drop in a surprise or two on the second night.

The Enterprise bar, across the street and up a bit, is the usual meet-up spot so if you just rock up we'll make you feel welcome.

Well thank you for that information. I actually bought my tickets. Now I just need to get an updated passport. Mine expired. I'm actually staying at the Camden Enterprise Hotel. Is the bar part of it?
