Doves lasts night

Great as ever, though still not the same without Jimi
Venie, first time I had been to tge Aviva, was alright, draught ale is watered down to fuck mind.
Crowd, bit disapointing tbf wankers talking during songs in few areas

Got them tonight in Brum. Jimi will always be a miss but on a positive note they're playing a pretty small venue and they always nail the music. Seen a couple of set lists and I see they've been knocking Space Face out at the end

Anyone ever seen ‘Mogwai’ ?

Just home from the Albert Hall and the excellent Jalen Ngonda gig.

the mans voice is sublime, nice to briefly see @bluejon on the way out though I couldn't find you outside so I fucked off home ;-)

Yes, went to this gig as well.
Jalen is a talent, with the ability to make it look effortless.
Love the Albert Hall, but it gets bloody warm in there !!!

Went the CO-OP last night for Teddy Swims, really good gig. Been before for James but had seats, much better down on the floor last night for me.

 

[journolud]

Michael Kiwanuka at the Apollo tonight. A long time since I’ve been there, anyone know what parking is like?

I’m thinking of driving part of the way and parking up somewhere on the 192 route but maybe it’s not necessary?

Badly Drawn Boy doing The Hour Of The Bewilderbeast at Birmingham Town Hall tonight . 2 different sets apparently

 

[abu13]

Pete Whiley next Friday.

 

[West Yorks Owl]

Saw Norwegian Post Punk band Pom Poko at Brudenell Social Club on Tuesday, really good along with support band Alien Chicks.

Got tickets for Massive Attack at Co-Op in June, what's it like using the official car park is it a nightmare getting out and if so what are the better alternatives? My local geography is not great.

Any info appreciated.

 

[Big Joe Corrigan]

Beans On Toast tonight at Band On The Wall.

 

[Fat Larrys Band]

It's Mercury Rev, for me on Friday night, at New Century Hall.
First time there... Are there any cheap Joseph Holt's nearby?

What did you think?
I thought the acoustics of the hall were utter shite.

Got our tickets for Junes Brummie concert, to see the one and only Smokey Robinson. He`s only doing four concerts in the UK so absolutely delighted to see one of my all time favourite Tamla artists.
I`m not surprised the shows start at 6.00 pm, seeing he fucking 84 years young. He`ll be tucked up in bed by 9.00 with his Horlicks.
