Gigs Thread

Of to see Pigs pigs pigs pigs pigs pigs pigs tomorrow night at New Century, seen them a couple of times at small venues, looking forward to see them play a bigger room
 
He's got funny bones.
I wanted to get tickets to see him again but my Mrs said why see him again doing the same material.

Yep she's a miserable fucker :)
Where did you see him at?

He was in Ramsgate where I live that's the reason I'm not at today's game lol can't do a latish night and a 4am start.
 
Off to Detroit in the morning to see Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds for the nth time. I don’t think the latest album is all that great, but their stuff always comes across way better live anyway and the reviews and setlists for this tour so far are stellar, so should be a good night.

I checked ticket prices here and almost choked on my poutine.
 
You’re around Toronto right? They’ve always seemed to me to be way more popular in Canada than the US and play bigger venues that also sell out quickly. Take the quick trip to Motown! It’s not even sold out.
I just looked again and it was resales that I saw for close to a grand. A few tickets left at $200ea. Still too rich for me.
 
Rarely post on here, but I can recommend these two, seen them both in that London town!

The Last Laugh 29th July to 02nd August at The Opera House. Paul Hendy play portraying Eric Morecambe, Tommy Cooper and Bob Monkhouse. The three of them in a theater dressing room telling jokes and reminiscing about their careers. Nostalgic, poignant and funny all rolled into one. All good, but Simon Cartwright who played Monkhouse is 'spot on' and was the best of the three IMO.

Fawlty Towers. 04th November to 08th November at The Opera House. Very funny. Pieces together three classic episodes, (no spoilers). Characters very good indeed and include all the regulars and. Cleese had a say in putting this together. Go and see it!

The LL got 5 in The Metro, wouldn't have know about it TBH and there was plenty of publicity for FT's.

I also went to Only Fools and Horses musical when it came north, but that didn't 'hit the spot' for me, anyone else go?,

Also looks good Sunny Afternoon, (The Kinks) and Tina (Tina Turner musical).

Might get to one or both.
 
Went to see James last night at the Middlesbrough town hall. I think the capacity is about 1200. Always prefer them in more intimate venues as opposed to arenas.
Thought this is the best I have seen them since the mid 90s. My wife estimated that it was my 64th James gig. This is based on my t shirt collection. I did point out that it's at least 5 years since I last purchased 1.
There were a couple of strange things last night. For a start our tickets weren't checked on the way in. We could have saved £100 and just walked in. Secondly, the guy stood next to us spent most of the gig watching the snooker on his phone. Finally, another bloke stormed off when Tim gave an anti Trump speech. Not sure how you can go to a James gig and not know they are anti Trump and anti fascist.
