I'll be at either Q-Tip or David Guetta, but if I had to choose between those two then it would definitely be Neil Young.

Bloc party are quite rubbish live, can't see the old fella being able to stay awake for the whole of his set. So see you at Erol.

Its Neil Young or Doves for me. The way the times have worked out though, I can check out 45mins of NY and then head off to Doves if I/we've seen enough. Can't stand Bloc Party to be honest. Was never that into Neil Young, but my mate has converted me in the last few months, some awesome songs.

One thing I've learnt over the years, is take the opportunity to see the legends that play as they aint around for ever, whereas two-bit indie bands come and go. Bloc Party will be playing your local venue come this Autumn or Spring.

I must admit that Animal Collective completely passed me by until I saw all the fuss about them on these forums. Thought I better check it out. Downloaded the album, listened to it, and thought this sounds familiar, and a quick google later realised its the bloke from Panda Bear!  ;)

Neil Young was on BBC4 HD channel this morning  - Few years old but his performance of Hey Hey My My To start was electric... It made my mind up

Lets not be silly, Neil Young is a living legend and still performs amazingly live, you can't miss out on seeing him - catch bloc at the 02 academy for £11, they're shite (live) anyway.

1 week until shakey rocks in the free world once again!

it's better to burn out, than it is to rust

Yeah, but I went to see The Who the other year with this argument and it was shit

Hopefully Doves for me if I can get in but not bothered who as seen them a few times. Might saunter to Neil Young but not that arsed
