  1. Probably the best lineup they've had for 7-8 years, glad to see them getting back more to their roots. If I was ten years younger I'd probably go. There's 12-15 bands on there i'd go see which is about 12-15 more than the last 5 years.

    Good for you! Maybe you’ll get to be as crazy as me, mine dates back to the early 70s with 2089 live performances over 50 years (Luckily I kept my gig tickets).

    Thats amazing. My first show on the list was Garth Brooks in 94 as a child but my adult gigs started in 2002. Immediate goal is to hit 1000 within the next 4 years. If I keep up my current level of gig attendance i'll hit 2000 sometime between the ages of 55-60. I used a combination of gig tickets, festival posters, setlist.com and social media posts to compile my list. Took a lot of time but its great to be able to look back on and it jogs your memory so you don't forget the shows.

  3. 1. Limp Bizkit - Halifax Piece Hall

    2. Prodigy - Leeds Arena

    3. Depeche Mode - Twickenham Stadium

    4. Blood Red Shoes - Manchester Star and Garter

    5. Morrissey - Leeds Millenium Square

    6. Pulp - Sheffield Arena

    7. Iron Maiden - Leeds Arena

    8. Lamb of God - Manchester Academy

    9. Belle and Sebastian - Manchester Academy

    10. Priest - Budapest Barba Negra

    For those of you struggling to remember what shows you went to... keep a list. I put an excel sheet together in 2020 for gigs I'd been to dating back to 2002. Currently on 732 individual sets and 424 bands seen at tender age of 38.

  4. I went every year from 04 to 12. Then for one day in 2015. If the festival hadn't strayed so far musically from what it was I would still happily go now aged 38 but the lineups hold no appeal for me anymore. I also attend a lot more gigs now than I did in my twenties so festivals aren't as much of a focus for me as they used to be.

    Is there any info on SP/Weezer for this? I'd be staggered, if only because sales for Manchester have been... not so much sluggish as in line with what I thought they would be, which is to say moderate.

     

    I went on cuffe and taylor website a few weeks ago and Weezer/SP was shown on a slide of bands where 5 out of 7 of them were already announced for Piece Hall.

    If SP and Weezer get announced for Piece Hall I'm gonna be pissed about buying tickets for manchester. 

    Yeah I held off on that one as I think they'll play. Its the same promoter so I think there's a really solid chance. But there's a big risk i'll be in Helsinki for Metallica at the time, i'm gonna be incredibly torn if that happens.

    Madonna probably with her incoming tour  or is she more suited to Legends now (and maybe that is what Emily meant?)

    Her ego is too big to play the legends slot, she wouldn't accept anything below headlining.

    Debbie is great. The fact that people that age can do this still amazes me. 

    Absolutely. It's inspirational to see people her age still going out and doing this. Debbie, Stones and Paul McCartney all showing 80 isnt as old as it used to be.

  9. Can't believe there's reviews that GNR was the worst ever headline set just 24 hours after Arctic Monkeys put the crowd and everyone at home to sleep. 

    Sure Axl's voice could have been better but they rocked the stage and the crowd was having a blast.

    The funny thing is, everyone will blether on about how great Elton is on Sunday even if his voice is shite now!

    I'm not sticking up for Alex by the way, it's been poor, but.....double standards?

    People can forgive a bad voice, they can't forgive a lack of effort, energy and a poor setlist.
