Maybe they'll be flogging some albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a great performer I saw John Grant in Bath last night, the third time i've seen him and thought he was great previously. I haven't been that bored at a gig in decades. Dull as fuck.

Its not his best album by s log shot, so dont think I'll bother. Saw him support Elbow in April and though he was superb. Was it the new stuff that made it so dull?

Was it the new stuff that made it so dull? the first hour was the new album, and last night at least it was completely underwhelming as a live thing. Up to the encore there were three oldies, which were done OK but still short of what I've seen before. And I actually bailed at that point, to go stand outside and watch the halloween kids punching each other. Much more enjoyable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Jass Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 FAK were just lovely last night, some serious pipes on display. Dressing up as Wizard of Oz characters for Halloween was a nice touch too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen Mogwai before so it'll be great to see them in a smaller venue. I've only been inside SWG3 once which was for Jon Hopkins a couple of weeks ago but I thought the sound was excellent so hopefully the same for Mogwai.

Yeah, never been inside for a gig so should be good. Seen Mogwai at that the Last Big Weekend thing a few years ago and they were good.

Hugh Jass Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 2manydjs are playing the Hare & Hounds in Birmingham on 27th December. That has the potential to be all sorts of epic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatteredscreens Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 Don't know if anyone has seen Snail Mail on this recent set of shows but I went last night to the Bristol show - not good, obviously if this is her first 'big' tour it shows, her voice is really fucked and actually kind of ruined it.

I haven't been that bored at a gig in decades. Dull as fuck. Same here, third time seeing him - first was Glastonbury '16 and then caught a secret piano set at The Great Escape so this was my first full concert. Maybe it was the fact I stood next to a group of people who had flew from Italy and Portugal to see him or that I personally really enjoy the new record, but the atmosphere was brilliant. Crowd loved him and it seemed mutual.

Saw her in Brighton two days ago having caught her at The Great Escape and loved that show, and have listened to 'Lush' on repeat, but the gig was just tough to get through. She said she woke up 15 mins before going on stage and it showed. Her voice was off-putting and each song felt like a chore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Incognito Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 Black Midi tickets bought for Brighton, gonna be my 4th time seeing them. In my favourite venue in the city too! Keep hearing bad things about Snail Mail live, glad i decided against them at eotr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw her in Manchester and she was decent, tho she did cut things short and said her voice was going so I can understand why the rest of the tour would've gone downhill. She was ace at the beginning of the year, so don't let it put you off. Top album and top performer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a ticket for her Manchester show but couldn’t be arsed on the day so returned it, so this is good to hear. Hope she ups her live game for festivals next year.

scatteredscreens Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 I saw her at Gold Sounds festival in Leeds (back in May) and she was really great. Last night's Bristol show was a kick in the teeth and all in all a pretty bad gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
