priest17 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Crows nest and JP here again, made up for missing the Manchester show (which I wasn't that sad about coz the Oh Sees smashed it on every level, I really can't stress how much I enjoyed that gig). The Crows Nest one was nuts, I remember how much I enjoyed it (mucho) but I'm a bit fuzzy on the details. Anyone got a setlist to jog my memory? I remember bits of Head On/Pill and another one off In Your Mind Fuzz that wasn't the title track or Cellophane but the rest I just remember the chaos of the affair. Bit gutted they didn't play Vomit Coffin at either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit gutted they didn't play Vomit Coffin at either. Crows Nest was basically a big long improv medley, starting with Head On/Pill and going through a bunch of other staple songs. Bit of Altered Beast in there for sure, Rattlesnake I think, Gamme Knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeshez89 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 JP great but relatively tame crowd-wise. Crows nest- I caught the last 10/15 mins. Crowd absolutely nuts. Couldn't make out what they were playing but it didn't really matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appropriate having fuzz in my mind though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majormajormajor Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 If you like the Gizz, you must love quality rock'n'roll. Just passing along a tip - this festival looks the business: http://www.laroutedurock.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwardjc14 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Yeah spotted that line up earlier this year, utterly utterly ridiculous line up, £90 for a ticket too.. mental! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian the worm Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 As they've got a catchy name and quite a few people I know said they were great, I decided to try them out. To be honest, I thought they were a funk dance band. Turns out they play EXACTLY the styleof music that I LOVED between the age of 15 and 20. Brilliant choice. Loved them. More please.

Heartbreaker Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 In 20 years of attending gigs, that crows nest show was by far the most fun I've ever had at a gig. Sure I've seen far more polished live acts, more charismatic front men etc. etc. but that was something utterly special for me. I Arrived 45 mins early to ensure I got in and wow. Everyone there was up for it, one of the kindest mosh pit I've ever been in, sharing drinks with people around me and it was fuckin' great to hear Head on / Pill live again. A good 7 / 8 of my group who have had me banging on about them for a year or two decided to head up to see what the fuss was about (I had told them this would be their best set of the weekend)...... each and every one of them now own their back catalogue. Quote of the year from a mate "My favourite moment of the fest was when you appeared out of the darkness after the Gizzard secret set; running toward us karate kicking the air, wearing only shorts, a ripped shirt and a tie screaming "Nonagon Infinity opens the door!!" I still get goosebumps thinking about this gig, it was utterly stunning and will take some going for a band to top that. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Incognito Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 album artwork for new album titled Sketches Of Brunswick East. Seems the rumors that they're releasing an album with Mild High Club are true. Supposedly it's gonna be quite jazzy so I'm expecting something similar to Quarters and Paper Mache Dream Balloon. In an interview they said they're not gonna announce it, just release it unannounced so it could be coming sooner rather than later (especially if they still wanna release 5 this year) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their involvement would make sense as to why King Gizz have described this album as ''jazzier'' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suttttttt Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 Not sure if this will be of interest to any of you guys but The Murlocs (2/7ths of KGATLW in the form of Ambrose and Cook) are touring in September and its their first ever European tour. Check em out, plenty of harmonica! http://www.seetickets.com/search?q=murlocs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Hall for me, not by much though and definitely has its issues. The Ritz had a really strong period where they were getting all the right bands and great service but its depleted recently, too expensive to enjoy drinking there. Never seem to see bands at the Apollo anymore either, saw Pixies there a year ago but can't remember before that. Plenty of decent venues though, my heart sinks when bands get announced at the Academy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 Deaf Institute is the business. Not off all the way to see Ambrose and the lads like but should be a gooden. Just noticed about the new Murlocs record being out this weekend so there's that to console myself with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
