Anyone else miss the old gigs thread and have concerts planned?

Didn't there used to be a Gigs thread?

Anyway, just sorted tickets etc for Masta Ace + Live Band (!) at the Jazz Cafe nexrt month. Very excited about that! No late-night train to get home from Euston, sadly, means an overnight London stay, though. Resigning myself to being the oldest in the audience by some distance 😃, but I can live with that.

Sounds fun, I’ve always wanted
to get into Jazz, just don’t think I’ve found the right sort yet.
DH & I have been to a few gigs over the last few years, from our youths with Paul Simon being the most recent. (The man was phenomenal. Mid 80’s partially deaf, so gentle & musically wise. An absolute privilege.)
Dont think we have any lined up at the moment so definitely need to get looking - an empty calendar is not a
good one!
Thanks for restarting a doubtlessly inspirational thread, @moto748e

Masta Ace is deffo not jazz! But the Jazz Café does a good range of music genres.

Nerina Pallot at the Royal Albert Hall this weekend! Am ridiculously excited to see her again 🫶

Father John Misty in Lisbon bullring next Monday. Fontaines DC in Cadiz beginning of August.

MadCool in Madrid next one booked. Not sure if there'll be any small gigs before then. 🤞

Brigitte Calls Me Baby in September, Koko, London, if can get tickets tomorrow. Will be 5th time seeing them since last June. I'm obscessed 😍 Morrissey in December, Brighton. Old habits die hard.

I went to the Cheltenham jazz festival
for the first time recently. Don’t know much about jazz so chose some acts at random. Some I liked , others not so, even though I recognised they were good performers.

The only concert I’ve got lined up is Jack Savoretti. Bit thin on the ground at the moment.

I only have 2 lined up.

A Place To Bury Strangers in Hastings
Getdown Services in Brighton

Definitely need to add more. Tempted by Gurriers.
