Saw Magic Numbers last night at Gloucester Guild Hall. Great gig by the way. I said how much we'd loved their set this year and asked if they were playing next year and Romeo said yes they were playing Glastonbury as well as a number of other festivals.

Great news for any Magic Numbers fans

I saw them play the Pyramid a few years back and they were ace. Not my usual cup of tea but they were just so entertaining - their sheer joy at being there and enthusiasm was contagious. Saw Romeo at another gig a few months after and told him how much I enjoyed it and he was very gracious - what a lovely chap he is!

I only found out they were at Glasto this year after they'd played. Queens Head as well wasn't it? Bet that was Ace. Must admit I do love their stuff but always feels like a guilty pleasure admitting it! The tunes are catchy without being twee and the vocal harmonies are just lush. Glad they'll be back next year and will make a point of seeing the set this time. Just hope it's a smaller venue and not a lower slot on a big stage. The Park would be ideal.

Magic Numbers in the Queens Head was one of the highlights for me this year. I didn't expect such a mellow band to get the crowd jumping in the way they did. Loved it. I'll be looking out for them next year.

I spoke to them after a gig not too long ago and they said they same re: were playing at Glasto at some point.

I would love them to headline The Park.

Top top live band, and the new record sounds like it will be tops too. You can get a new song downloaded for free off their website now...

Lets be honest - their second album was a rush job, and not very good. I think they lost a lot of the goodwill that they had built up after their first album and more importantly their live shows. I think they have always been much better live than on either album.

They've got several stonking songs, and I really hope their new album is a marked improvement consistency wise - they seem like a real genuine bunch, and I wish them well

      Proper special gig tonight. They won't mean much to most people, but The Dogs D'Amour were one of the most significant bands of my youth.   Tyla, yer main man of said band, was playing in Birkenhead tonight. Not many there, but it was going fine. Then he decided he didn't like the smoke and the flashing lights so suggested moving the gig to the beer garden. Off we all went, and it was magical. Like having your favourite musician play in your garden. I absolutely loved it.   Before:     After:
