Gigs 'n' Tours

True, but for an afternoons entertainment, £52 is fecking expensive. Besides, I can hear the whole concert from my house as I only live 2 mins away :lol:

But if they didn't have stupid charges like that, I'd have gone...
 
Good on you for voting with your feet. If everybody did this then ticket companies wouldn't charge these ridiculous extras.
 
I'd love to go to that thing. But being so far north, the cost of getting down is riddiculous even before we think about gig tickets. It is practically a festival day though, and you pay more than that for a day at Download of Leeds/ Reading.

I went to see Billy Talent t'other day. Was cool, but not really epic. They do bore me a bit anyway. But I did get the guitarists plectrum, which is always good.

The first night of Eminem/50 Cent at the Bowl, it was so loud I could hear the concert clearly and I was in Giffard Park!!! :lol:

Charging lots of money for the Bowl is a rip-off since it's just a big grassy dent, there are practically no facilities there.

I couldn't make it this time - tell me it was awesome :p.
 
I can't begin to desribe how jealous I am of all of you going to see Muse. I know someone else going tonight. He is being very annoying about it.
 
Brilliant week coming up for me! Arctic Monkeys at Sheffield tomorrow night then Kasabian at MEN next Friday! They're going be brilliant, can't wait.
 
Glassjaw are coming to Rock City! First tour in God knows since when. January 25th, 3 UK tour dates. Something no Glassjaw fan can miss.

Got Rise Against, Thursday and Posion the Well next Thursday at Manchester Apollo, then Thursday and Posion the Well at Nottingham Rescue Rooms the next day, gonna be good! (Just we left the manchester Travelodge too late so it's gone from £29 to £48. Gutted.)

Muse are good.
 
Muse last night were....well, I don't think there are any words good enough to describe it!

The crowd also got attacked by an onslaught of giant balloons filled with confetti :lol:

Awesome night. Muse are legends. I paid a stupid amount of money for the tickets but it was worth it.
 
Was a fantastic live act once again. But the sound was really badly set up, the bass was too high and the drums were too loud so the Hysteria bass solo got sort of drowned out by the snare of the drum. Shame!

This has cheered me up a lot. I still haven't seen Glassjaw in about 8 years of trying so I hope I can get to one of the dates. Daryl's dodgy stomach better hold out!

Fall of Troy in 3 days is gona be sweeeeet. cool)
 
I know I'm late, but oh well....

WOW! I can't actually put in to words how amazing Muse were, unlike Dave I didn't really think the set up was bad (probably was better set up for the Thursday). The whole show ran slightly late as Muse played at the Royal Albert Hall for the Children in Need gig beforehand, but it was worth it!

I went to see Will Young last night!! My friends brothers girlfriends uncle works for the record label, and my friend had a ticket spare for last night so I was like hell yeh.

Will Young oooozes sex appeal. He's so unbelievably hot! And he's got an amazing set of lungs. He was really happy all the way through the gig, talking loads to the audience, cracking jokes and teased us for ages becuase he knew the x factor result!

On nommmm. :D
 
Just back from The Flaming Lips at Manc Academy (scary time, first time in I-don't-care-to-remember-how-long that I've wandered down Oxford Road into studentville, don't remember half the buildings down there!).

Anyway, gig was super. Seen them four times now, every time they have been rather great. Any gig that starts with the lead singer getting into a giant bubble and zips off crowd surfing before the first number can't be too bad.

Support was OK too (Stardeath and White Dwarfs - thats just one band, interesting name then!)

:)
