Any good?

 

I wanted to go but my wife was working and the kids would of complained.  I sat in the back garden with a beer and a fire whilst listening to them.  Not as good as being there though

Amazing, such a tight live band who are all absolutely involved when performing. Bass levels were a little high and the crowd was pretty poor. One of their strengths is a receptive crowd who actually know the songs to see all with. You must live pretty close as the sound doesn't travel round newport like it used too.

Not far from earl mountbatten.  Wasn't the best of sounds but just hear it.  I heard a few people say beforehand that they didn't want to watch them.  But what i've seen of them they are a fantastic live band

Got tickets for tomorrow night - have a good 'un!

Decent show but the arena is very steep and we were up high

 Don't bother getting there for the warm up. It's a dj mate of theirs and he is awful. 

 

Leeds is a decent place for a beer too. There is a stone roses bar we popped into after. Beware it is very very small and packed

 Thanks. Yes, very steep but a good venue, great sound system. We're standing anyway, out in Leeds at the moment.

 

Been in Leeds for the last 20 years, yes it's a great place for beers!

You don't need my advice on bars etc then ?

One thing to note is the queues at the middle level bars were far shorter than the top level. Also when we arrived the queues to get in were massive. Go to the far queues they seemed to move quicker

Off to Slam Dunk in Birmingham on Saturday. Should be a laugh.

 

Some old school flashbacks to my yoot with Less Than Jake, Reel Big Fish, Mad Caddies etc.

 

Enter Shikari headlining doing a Take to the Skies anniversary tour. lol

 

 

Okay, time for plan b!

What did you think to it? I really wanted to go but had other stuff planned before I realised the date.

 

I suspect we would've been watching different bands but I have seen Less Than Jake and they're great craic.

 

I've just bought tickets for Neck Deep in Newcastle in October and Basement in Manchester in December.

It was alright. Pretty much what I was expecting really, budget festival with a few tidy bands.

 

Shikari were very good.

I could have done a better job than him...

 

Thought they sounded great, on top form really. Think it may be the last tour until the next one!

Got a few in the pipeline that are a bit of a variety.

 

Going to watch The Roots at The Jazz Cafe on July 2nd, should be decent.

 

In October I'm seeing Reverend & The Makers at the Electric Ballroom, always class live.

 

The one I'm really excited about, albeit in March next year is seeing The Modfather himself at The o2. Never seen Paul Weller live before, absolutely buzzing.

One of my favourite bands who I've never managed to see, new stuff is sounding class as per. Really wanna get to the inevitable LCD Soundsystem tour as well.

 

Missed out on LCDs last tour....  really looking forward to the National - so many good albums and always sound fresh

Going to Rock City on the 7th. Last time it was a Saturday I had to sit listening to the Leicester game  on my phone in a pub full of Forest fans who weren't at theirs. I imagine it'll be much the same.
