Hurm. Do I go and see Cure and the lads in Glasgow and remove a clash option from the Sunday?

Go see The Cure in Glasgow, Janelle Monae in London and it clears your path to see Reef at the farm.

Lot of big gigs not selling well this year then...

They're also going to be announced for Manchester on the 25th and Glasgow, I think the 14th.

Cure deal tickets appear to have gone.

On the other hand, this is gonna beat even Reef doing their jingle:

Seeing Muse tonight. Hoping for a good show, first time seeing them. Hasn't sold out though... I'm assuming because of the Champions League final?

They never quite sell out their stadium tours, the last tour was arenas which went straightaway.

Ah fair enough. Guessing it's probably still going to be pretty busy though, right?

Should be. Going Etihad for them again next week and it seemed packed last time.

Senser smashed it in the 100 Club on Friday night. Even got a cover of She Watch Channel Zero.

For the second Senser gig in three months, Credit to the Nation pulled out on the day. I suspect he's been back on the superskunk sadly...

Is Barrowland a good venue and is Glasgow worth a visit? Saw PS at Scala and All Points East, and figured it could be fun to see them at a hometown show next. Thought I might go up there for a few days but not sure yet...

 

Oh yeah, is anyone going to that Jaded Hearts gig tonight?

[CaledonianGonzo]

It's the best venue on the planet.

What's so good about it?

Annoyingly I'm at a wedding the day after the Sheffield gig and pretty sure the groom wants us all out the night before.

So if I were to travel up from North Yorkshire (or Manchester), it would still be worth it?

For me it's been a long time since Scream and the lads have been worth seeking out as a live act, but that's definitely the best show of the tour to see them at.

The Barras is a bit of a dive that I don't think has changed in any way since the 70s, but there is something special about it. Always seems like a great atmosphere in there, it's just the perfect size, not too big, but big enough to get decent acts & sound quality has always been good for any gig I've been to there. Plenty of bars(1 downstairs, one really long one upstairs on left hand side that's the length of the hall and a small table they sell cans at near the back) so easy to get drinks at and it has loads of history.

I'd totally recommend it as a gig venue, just don't expect anything fancy.

I had a cheeky bit of lsd when I saw them at Scala and it's probably the best gig I've been to this year (think I've been to 13 so far). So I'm more than happy to see them again tbh

[CaledonianGonzo]

I've seen em at the Barras a few times. Certainly when they toured Give Out Don't Give Up and XTRMNTR

That Tyler gig is now Tyler, Jaden Smith, Blood Orange and Gold Link. Probably worth knocking on 60 notes.

So Mac DeMarco is playing Ally Pally on a Thursday in Nov with the next night free both at the venue and on the tour. Does anyone know if there is a way of finding out if the Fri is 'reserved' for another date should the Thursday sell out? I know they often add a second date there for certain acts, although I'm not sure he'd sell well enough to justify it.

Don't live in London, so would much prefer a Friday gig given the choice.

Anyone got into the Primal Scream presale? Swear I signed up to it but I checked and there's no emails or text messages from them or anything...

I had an email just after 8 this morning. Do you want the link?

Managed to get one sorted, but thanks. Got a ticket for Barrowland!

 

Last gig of 2017 was The Prodigy, 2018 it was Paul McCartney, this year it'll probably be Primal Scream. Seems like a pattern is starting to developing, so crossing my fingers for Pulp 2020!
