What's everyone else up to?

ooh we might be going to Bright Eyes too. Also just got tickets for Sufjan Stevens- yay!

where is that, natto?

Am planning on HMV Institute if I go - They do annoy me but Road To Joy is one of my favourite songs ever.

Manchester. Haven't seen Bright Eyes live for years and didn't think much then to be honest but my dp is a fan. Sufjan Stevens in Manchester too and definitely great live.

Elbow in Nottingham next month!

Nice one fourfingerdkitkat. Should be good!

TV Smith on Saturday (just found the music section of MN, yay!)

Well done for finding us KungFu.
Now will you find us on Movie Reviews as well!! It's abit slow there!!

Thanks upahill, I will go there directly

The Specials in October and that's it so far for me.

Clive Pig and the Hopeful Chinamen next weekend but I'd be amazed if anyone remembers them. Its part of a local punk event this month.

Next week I'm going to see the Levellers and The Wonderstuff! Last night went to O2 Academy in Brum to see some local up and coming bands. Can't beat going to gigs, I love 'em :)

Sufjan Stevens and Billy Bragg both in May different days at Royal Festival Hall

OMG the Wonderstuff, I loved Give Give Give Me More More More I think I saw them supporting Zodiac Mindwarp back in the late 80's.

I'm off to the Wonderstuff and Levellers tomorrow and I am so excited!

Everything Everything in May.
Still trying to get tix for Queens of the Stone Age at The Roundhouse.
Then just the Foos in July and the Reading Festival in August. I need to get some more gigs lined up.

Reporting back after a couple of recent gigs, both brilliant!
Lykke Li, rocking the foxy widow look to an adoring crowd.
And Simone Felice in fine voice, charming and chatty.

Next gig for me is Alela Diane in may, looking forward to seeing her live for the first time.

Also wondering if anyone is going to see Battles? we're thinking about it...

whatkungfuthat, did you enjoy TV Smith? I have seen him a couple of times, he never fails to please and he is such a nice man.
The only gig that I've got lined up this year, so far is Imelda May in October
I'm not even going to Rebellion this year [sob] [busad]
I wanted to go and see PIL in June but DH is on a business trip

Hoping to go and see Black Country Communion.

My work is all over the place at the moment. I am expecting to be made redundant. If I knew for sure I would book a load of gigs that I fancy. However I have jobs penciled in if in case I don't get made redundant.

It is stiffling my gig going life.

Went to see Saxon last week. Great show. Wolfsbane supported but was in Academy2 at Manchester which was way too small!

Oh I fancy seeling TV on the radio.
Joe Bonamassa tickets for Blackpool have sold out. Black Crowes have sold out as well so I'm on abit of a downer about that!!

taking ds (6) to his first concert in May....We are going to see Olly Murs

Its not very sophisticated .. but we are excited anyway

I can't decide between Green Man, Latitude or End Of The Road this year. I've been to Glastonbury loads before but I want to try something new.

musicluvvie- I can recommend End of the Road. it's so chilled out, the music is fantastic, and the setting is lovely, so small and civilised :) although I'd happily go to your other choices. depends which line-up you prefer really...

anyone seen Sufjan Stevens yet? we're going to Manchester tomorrow, very excited!

Well I'm not sure if there is going to be any singing but I am going to see Mark Radcliffe tongight.

(wonder if he will do any Shirehorses stuff or just ramble on for an hour or so!)
