Just got an email for Dua Lipa at Liverpool Arena on 6th January....surely that is an accident? There's no way that's going ahead right?

Prob not.  Our London one has been moved to that slot in Jan but expecting it to be rearranged again.

I'm gassed to be seeing Richard Dawson at the Barbican in October. Socially distanced obviously!

That's gonna be sick, I'm jealous. If anyone can keep a socially distanced gig intimate but also alleviate the seriousness and awkwardness of the situation its him.

Been coming out with a load of anti-vax/mask/sensible precautions stuff on his twitter.

Is there anything more depressing than being out in your place by Jedward?

West African fusion, funk, ska, electropop - an off-the-wall ode to Brighton’s cultural diversity and next-level underground talent.

Wrap your ears around a night of dramatic grunge punk from Brighton’s indie underground scene.

A laid-back evening of subtle moves and tight grooves from jazz, soul, reggae and ska.

Haven't decided yet whether I'll go as the infection risk is still too high for my liking, but may well stream and drop a donation to their crowdfunder as well.

Groove Armada confirmed they've got a tour planned for Spring on a stream last night.

This'd be absolutely joke, and I mean that in a really good way

The Wannadies have reformed, and have announced 3 gigs in Sweden for March 2021.  More dates outside of their home country are expected to be announced, including their first UK dates since  2003

I'm guessing that, after their fight, one of them tried to make the other one laugh and everything was forgotten. I hate that.

Got tickets for Squeeze this morning on the first Saturday of December at the o2. Really hoping this goes ahead as it could lead the way for smaller venues to gain confidence!

It is essentially what some small venues are doing but at a larger scale. 20% capacity, socially distanced shows. It's not a realistic solution as 20% isn't enough to make money so, sadly, I don't think it will change what small venues do.

I've got tickets for Seth Lakeman's socially distanced gig at the Bath Forum late November, which will be odd as one of the last gigs I saw was him at Southwark Cathedral earlier in the year, couldn't resist the chance of live music again...if it goes ahead...

I’m seeing Lola young tomorrow, also the last gig I went to before lockdown. Weird!

This would be great news, if it weren't for the fact that early summer festivals are almost definitely going to be cancelled.
