Got a few coming up before I can get too excited for Glasto, got a run of Glasvegas, Jagwar Ma and Temples on Weds, Thurs, Fri all at the same venue.

Then the Tuesday evening before I leave I'm at The Courteeners pre-Glasto show at the Academy in Liverpool.

yeh, he is truly sensational. It's even more brill now they've ditched the saxaphone and brought in the violin I reckon

every time I see him I vow it will be the last time due to the horrific ticket prices....then he does another tour....I'll be bankrupt if he lives to 90 and carries on touring!

Yeah it is bloody expensive! That's what stopped me this time. The man's unstoppable though, he's announced a date in September too!

Ticket prices are getting insane. Was thinking of getting tickets for Bjork at Ally Pally until I found out it was £80+ a ticket! For Ally Pally! FFS.

I saw Johnny Marr a couple of weeks ago. He was great and got me right in the mood for more live music.

I'm jealous of you going to Leonard Cohen! I foolishly missed him at Glasto before, and have never forgiven myself!

Been a bit sparse Gig-wise recently. Saw some local bands about a month ago (Section 60 & The Sherlocks) which was good. Also going to Mosborough Music Festival this Sunday as it's round the corner from where I live. Planning on seeing The Bedroom Hour, The Darlingtons and Paul Heaton.

Jimmy Cliff is also playing in Sheffield the Monday before Glasto. It's not sold out. So tempted, but the wife would probably kill me. Live music and drinking all day Sunday, Monday night and then driving the Glasto for the best part of a week on Tuesday. There aren't enough brownie points in the world for that!

Saw Neil Young last night and am seeing These New Puritans tomorrow.

I somewhat reluctatntly bought tickets for Bjork at Ally Pally. It was my birthday last week, so I tried to justify it as a present to myself. Plus she's always incredible live, so even though it's Ally Pally I know it'll be worth it

Glasvegas were good last night, I honestly believe they're a step above many of the bands that came from the same landfill indie era. They have some brilliant songs.

Jagwar Ma tonight, I loved half of their album and am on the fence for the rest so hopefully seeing them live will make it click for me.

That's the first time I've her live and it exceeded expectations which were already pretty high, based on reports from anyone who has seen her live. (I think Goldfrapp might struggle to make such an impression this weekend!)

Yes - it's a shame PS won't be at Glastonbury, though cutting that 2 hour set by half would be tricky. Great night.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
