Me and my wife havent been to a concert for years now. Covid sort of stopped it and we reached 50 yrs old. But we want to do a festival .Something like Bluedot (Before it got shit). Anyone got any recomendations?

What kind of music do you like?

If you don't want to be surrounded by kids, then Shiiine On at Butlins is really good for mostly 90s indie. Hardly anyone under 40, plenty of places to sit down, and you are within walking distance of your bed.

I gave up on camping years ago, but still go to festivals in Europe. You get to stay in hotels, fit in some sightseeing, and usually no rain. Warm weather good for the joints too probably ;)

What is this "indie" band obsession with the word "shiiiine"?

James, Oasis and the Roses tribute at the O2 Ritz last night.

Fucking superb.

Seen the Clone Roses a few times, my mate plays base for them. Top blue as well

Brilliant mate. Just did similar for over here in September. Touring first new album in 25 years apparently. Gonna be worth a listen. A special talent is Matt.

What’s the damage for that bud?

 

[chesterbells]

Already mentioned it on the forum, but off to Girls Aloud tomorrow.
Last gig before that, if you don’t count Peter Kay, was Orbital. Don’t think there’ll be as many instrumentals tomorrow night.

With it being London and the RAH a Bud will probably set you back £12

Don’t want many of those at a Gilmour gig, be a bit of a queue for a Jimmy.
Thanks though, what about the ticket cost, any ideas?

^^Think that might be a rip-off resale site

Looks like tickets are selling out hence the opportunism

Yeah, a mere €705. I thought it might be expensive, but not that much. I can see it’s a secondary selling site, but even so, they obviously think they’ll shift them at that price.

Decent jingle Girls Aloud :-)

Got a few gigs coming up soon, James Yorkston, Waxahatchee, The Delines. Just seen that Felice Brothers are playing in October.

About £85 with all the various fees. It’s level 5 on the rear view circle about level with the end of the stage. Never been there before, but understand you get a decent view from most places.

That’s not too bad tbf.
I do like what he did about tickets, giving first crack to anyone who bought his new album via an access code/email.
Interesting to read he ain’t gonna play any Waters era Floyd though - think that’s gonna surprise a few on the night.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

I’ve got James and Liam G in June at the co-op within 3 days of each other. Missus moaning about having to take our daughter to Taylor Swift in Liverpool the night before James as doesn’t want to drive somewhere she doesn’t know.

Think she was after me taking her and picking up but I’ve just said why don’t I go instead so looks like I’m going there on the Thursday too ! Paramore supporting. Quite looking forward to see what all the fuss is about!

I bought the album but never received a code. Got in early doors after the presale. Looking forward to it no matter what he plays. I went to see Roger Waters last year and with all the various photos of Pink Floyd on the big screen not one included David.
