4AssedMonkey Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 The Hives were on brilliant form in Nottingham tonight. Great setlist, top drawer drumskin tight musical performance and all the crowd interaction and banter you’d expect from Pelle. Still one of the best live acts out there. Support act (Bad Nerves) are good too, like a Strokes/upbeat Ramones vibe. My neck hurts, my feet hurt and I’ve lost my voice. 10/10. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkete Posted March 30 Report Share Posted March 30 Talking of live music, a new venue opening a few miles from the farm in Wells. Think at one stage 40 years ago it was a diy shop and I fleetingly did work experience there. Hope they do well... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-somerset-68665988.amp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve been on my bucket list for years and I’ll finally be seeing them at Rock En Seine this August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sedra Posted March 30 Report Share Posted March 30 The Lottery Winners at Cheese and Grain last Saturday- excellent as usual with great support from Crystal Tides. First gig out for me since last September ( The National atAP) following my 2nd hip op in January! Was pleased I managed to stand up for 2 1/2 hours- getting in training for TS in June! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tracks from the new album come across great live too. I’m a broken man today but it was worth it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve only ever seen them at festivals or support sets. I still go on about his ladder banter from Glastonbury in 2013. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grinding aftertaste Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 Saw Underworld at the Usher Hall last night - fantastic. They're playing two sets on this tour so all the bangers plus a few new tunes and some deep cuts, 3 hour show including a short break. Incredible energy as always. Can't say the same for the crowd unfortunately - we were down the front but nevertheless surrounded by people standing motionless while they waited for Born Slippy. A real shame they're not at the farm this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomicide Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 Red Rum Club at Liverpool Arena last night, sensational stuff. Quite surreal to see them at a big venue, given they play Academy size and smaller venues around the country. Now 4 albums in, every song lapped up by the crowd, incredible scenes. 3 support acts in The Ks, The Cheap Thrills and The Kairos, all good but I think first on, The Kairos were my favourite.

ourkid1984 Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 Saw the Big Special supported by Alien Chicks and Grandma's House at the Joiners in Southampton tonight. Wow what a gig! I've seen Grandma's House before and they are fantastic feminist punk, Alien Chicks are full of energy and remind me of early Squid on speed mixed with the Fall and Big Special are, well, a bit special. Powerful sounds for just 2 people, brilliant energy, funny and engaging. Hints of Idles, Streets, Soft Play and Plan B (if he was good). All round excellent gig and brilliant value for money showing why independent venues are the way to go for gigs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
