Gigs I'm going to. The Gyroscope diaries

I’d like to see Fontaines D.C., Kneecap and Baxter Dury.

Gossip and Orbital know how to rock a crowd, albeit in very different ways.

Faithless - Maxi Jazz is dead.
Steel Pulse - kind of Trigger’s broom of a band

For my very expensive ticket price I’d like to see a lot less of Coldplay and Disclosure and a lot of new innovative talent :face_with_monocle:

Grumpy old man, I know.

Shania Twain
Bloody hell

and the Sleafords are on the bill too. If they don’t perform

together I’d be looking for a refund :laughing:

Wow, not a single headline act I’m interested in, plus a lot of shit filler.

Actually there’s quite a few bands on the under bill I’d quite like to see, but not there. Especially not Otoboke Beaver, they need to be seen in a hot, seedy little venue with an awesome PA rig.

Desertfest line-up reveal this morning lads :+1:

A veritable smorgasbord of Spring gigging awaits:

Bonnacons Of Doom
Sunn
Jane Weaver
Grails
Minami Deutsch
Ufomammut

I was wondering about Bonnacons Of Doom, they’re on at the Lexington.

Meanwhile in the Desertfest line-up, the only act I’ve heard of is Russian Circles :laughing:

Although Bongzilla sound like a hoot.

Gaz combes at the phoenix

Which was very very good

Am not going, am thinking this is not Meatman material.

You could go as a social service. All those vegans need somebody to whom they can announce their veganity.

Reminds me of this:

Half time at the Mishra gig, with Ford and Katie (extreme R & L respectively) back from their New Zealand tour.

DJ Shadow at Manchester tonight.

Nice 11pm doors open. FFS.

Go in your jimjams as a protest.

Ice cold queue n the rain. No coat as the hotel was two mins away.
On at 12 but I think half the queue is still outside. Painfully slow search and entry thing.

Some gonk will have believed that the privation will add to the user experience or something.

Shit, completely missed that, would have so gone had I known.

Update - he’s playing Bristol tomorrow night and I have two shiny tickets with my name on them. GET IN!
