Gigs Thread

Jools Holland was brilliant on Thursday. However, after about an hour we had to tell the 3 ladies sat behind us to shut up as couldn't hear the music for their inane chatting. Find this is happening more and more often at gigs and its beginning to put me off attending in future. Didn't really note this as an issue years ago. Perhaps it's me getting less tolerant.

Many attendees don’t seem to go for the music, just filming, chatting, going for drinks and multiple toilet visits ……definitely ruined the experience for me
 
Unfortunately all the cheaper seats have gone
I'm not paying £100 even though I like all these bands

Madness/Squeeze at the Hydro last night. Awesome gig. Place went mental when they finished with Night Boat To Cairo.
Squeeze were also bloody good.

Squeeze are exceptional.
You can easily forget how many top tunes they've recorded.
They are on another headline tour next year, seeing them in Stockton - cannot wait...

I have noticed this is on the increase however I went to see Cameron Winter at the Albert Hall last week and you could hear a pin drop. It was quite strange but very welcome.

A lot depends on the artist(s) & venue, never had any problems at RNCM, Gorilla, Band on the Wall, Bridgewater Hall, Night & Day……..obviously not major mainstream shows.
The largest venue I would go to is Apollo……usually not to bad

And the volume of the performance. I am finding that the venue is becoming a deal breaker much more that it did. When they moved Geese from NCH to Victoria Warehouse it killed it for me.
