Are you going to see any live music this year?

I'll start.
I'm seeing Kings of Leon in Hyde Park and Muse (supported by Kasabian) in Paris in June. Then in September I'm seeing Muse twice more at Wembley Stadium and in December Paul Weller at the O2 arena.

Anyone else?

Great. I'm hoping we get Kasabian supporting there too. They've got Editors supporting in Italy so maybe we'll get them.

I'm going to see the Dropkick Murphys on Saturday at Rock City

I'm (apart from Paul Weller, obviously! ) I'm hoping to see Biffy Clyro, but it is difficult for me to get an over night babysitter. Actually, I hardly see live band anymore since having children. Ahh, the pleasures of living somewhere were no one comes to play live, ever.

I'm not sure about Paul Weller tbh. I figured it would be better to buy tickets and sell them on if I decide I don't want to go, than to decide too late that I want to go and have to hunt for tickets to a sold-out show.

Saw Airbourne last week in Manchester with Taking Dawn (Sh*te) and Black Spiders (fantastically brilliant) supporting.

I don't know Dropkick Murphys or Airbourne. What am I missing?

DH won the coin toss to go see Delphic.

Got Lady Gaga in June and hoping to get Two Door Cinema Club tickets if the bank is kind to me next week!
That's all so far.

Will see Jessie Rose Trip at some point - hopefully at Hungry Pigeon (she is an ex guitar student of DHs)

MerlinsBeard · 15/04/2010 13:06

Wuld love to see Biffy Clyro (or Marmaduke DUke!)

AstronomyDomine · 15/04/2010 13:12

Airbourne are an Australian band heavily influenced by AC/DC - not bad at all but I preferred Black Spiders ... will definitely be looking out for their own tours. The drummer's flippin' mental

LostArtOfKeepingASecret · 15/04/2010 13:13

Lyra I'm sure Paul Weller will be good. I have had a problem with him since he was rude about Duran Duran in Smash Hits once, and I don't forgive easily!

nannynobnobs · 15/04/2010 13:32

Dropkick Murphys- Irish-American punk. Great fun

When was this, 1986? What did he say? I was a big Duran duran fan.
I'm going to check out the likelihood of him playing oldies before deciding whether to go.

Crosby, Stills and Nash in July (assuming they're still alive)

Portofino · 15/04/2010 13:55

Kasabian in Brussels next month....

snorris · 15/04/2010 14:09

I was going to admit to A-ha in November, but I'm a bit now I've seen what others are going to! .

Tarka, Dh and I saw Crowded House on our wedding day instead of having an evening do!!

minxofmancunia · 15/04/2010 14:25

Tickets for an evening with Rufus Waiwright next Thursday arrived today! Quite excited.

Would like to see Delphic/Elbow/Doves but all sold ou as far as I'm aware.

Will check out gigsandtours.com

MerlinsBeard · 15/04/2010 16:16

Delphic tix still available

RaggedRobin · 15/04/2010 22:15

Go, the baby won't mind. The sound will be muffled. And you may well produce a ready-made fan

Only the Harvest Festival and Christmas Carol Service , not a substitute really.

30andMerkin · 15/04/2010 22:28

Muse supported by Kasabian in Paris... I would pretty much rip my own arm off to go to that!! Kasabian are AWESOME live.

Isle of Wight festival here. Tempted by Bestival too, but think that might be a bit much on the old £££. Miss live gigs in London tho...

RaggedRobin · 15/04/2010 22:28

tickets go on sale tomorrow: you may have just persuaded me, lyra!

MimsyStarr · 15/04/2010 22:34

Saw Lou Rhodes the other night, she is ace! She had just started her tour, so she might be coming to a place near you soon.

Going to see LCD soundsystem soon. (Slight difference between those two I know)!

Crowded House are back together??? I'm there !
