Forgot she was Canadian. Love Blue. Got a great second hand vinyl of both that and Hejira Need to get hold of a good copy of Clouds - great album. 

She should do a duet with Chad Nickelback!

Can't really listen to anything post Hissing of the Summer Lawns but her first 6-7 albums are unique masterpieces. 

Anyway gigs, Bruce x 2 this weekend, Neil in two weeks. 

Been to a few this year. Ryley Walker was great, although he lost the crowd a little but as it was very loose at times. Flaming Groovies were banging. Have Rufus Wainwright and Wilco. And Glasto obviously.

No Irish date for PiL unfortunately. 

Glasto aside, Neil Young is the main event for me. Hoping for a Dylan date too.

Brian Wilson doing Pet Sounds was everything I expected and more. Felt really special seeing those songs performed live, by the guy who wrote them probably for the last time.

Well that was fucking ace! Far better than at glastonbury and i loved that. Religion was amazing but @The Nal the way they did that I'm not surprised they're not playing Ireland. 

Went on for ages and the bass outro went on and kept getting louder and louder. In a tiny low-ceilinged venue made it the loudest I've ever heard. My head was vibrating, never mind my feet. 

Only negative not sure ending with shoom was a good idea. Fair bit of new album but in general it was the better ones.

Tie me to the end of that was unbelievable. 

What way did they do it?

Sorry mate was a bit pissed. Extra very blasphemous verses is what I meant. No subtlety at all. Sweeping generalisation i know but couldn't see it going down very well with the masses over there.

Was fucking ace though.  

Quite the opposite. That would go down very well here! Probably wouldn't on a Friday night oldies TV show but at a gig? Yessir.

Religion is dying a death here thankfully.

My experiences a lot more rural so probably not representative. Like i say was pissed up too so not thinking before typing. Sorry for the ignorant comments to be honest. 

Missed a treat mate. Surprised they're not playing at least one Dublin or Belfast gig to be honest. 

Nowt ignorant about it. I guess thats why they dont have big punk gigs in rural Tipperary!

Yeah bit cheesed off to be honest because the couple of gigs hes played previously have been well attended and received. And I like the new album.

' Just shy of the three hour mark and a set list of twenty four songs spanning Young's entire career means that this concert will be talked about it hallowed tones for many years to come. '

Nearly 3 hours. Can't wait

This bodes extremely well

[When Jokers Attack]

Look forward to the Neil Young reports.

Brian Jonestown Massacre for me tomorrow night, they are doing a 3 hour set.

I'd love to see them again, really enjoyed their Glastonbury set the other year.

Neil Young heads - don't miss Laura Marling. In sparkling form.

Very different from last years tour. She evolves every time. Cracking stuff. 

[DomDom1984]

Coldplay were on sparkling form. First time I've seen them since T in the Park 2003 and it was great to hear the newer stuff live. A Sky Full of Stars was probably my favourite song of the night, but Up and Up ran it close as a great closing song.

[Wooderson]

Bruce Paris is go.

[MrZigster]

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds @ Brixton O2 Academy September. 

[WS_Jack_III]

Been to two gigs this year, need to look into what to go to later on in the year. I reckon i'll be going to see The Kills in October.

Was really hoping they'd play Glastonbury. Can't make that gig!

I am honestly quite puzzled as to why they aren't on at Glastonbury.

[Ipayne]

Aye just bought tickets to see The Kills at Leeds Beckett. Looking forward to it, loving Ash & Ice! Also just bought tickets to Sabbath's final gig in Birmingham, hopefully that will be something special

[gorfield]

I saw British Sea Power at a tiny venue in Hebden Bridge this week - it was special!!

new album is sounding great!

There is a clip of "rocky 6" on you tube.. i've listened to it 6 times today already

[gorfield]

Saw Virginmarys last month, they are on tonight too in Manchester. Ive known them a long time and they are getting better and better and have managed a get a spot on the main stage at Leeds and Reading this year!

Well worth checking out these lot - you could just stand and watch the drummer all night

I'm a Kills at Leeds Beckett attendee as well. Just had Warpaint and Goat popping up for the Albert Hall in October, hopefully neither will sell out before the festival season is over, can't spare the money at the moment.
