If you like Joy Division it's an absolute must. They played all of Substance by New Order followed, after a short pause, by all of Substance by Joy Division. Peter Hook is a guitar warrior. At the age of 69, my wife and I were flabbergasted by the energy and passion he put into the show.2

Not a gig until December, but pleased to have got 2 nice tickets for Madness/Squeeze at the O23

Sad news from the Lilacs, who we were seeing on Saturday, they've had to postpone their entire tour as the guitarist Sam has been diagnosed with testicular cancer.
The band named themselves after the Lilac Centre where the same lad's mum was treated for her terminal cancer.
Awful news but some positive messages coming out. There's also been a bit of a push from fans on their EP, and it looks like it's currently reached no 6 in the iTunes album chart.1 -

I saw Lauren Mayberry, the front lady from Chvrches, on her solo (with a band) tour at the O2 Shepherd’s Bush. For me, it was really good but lacked that magic spark that makes a gig outstanding. Still, most enjoyable, even if it’s hard to find a pub that sells decent beer in the area. I feel sorry for QPR fans.

Have a bit of a run of gigs coming up. My ears aren't going to be happy.
Spyres at The Lower Third
Gallus at The George Tavern
Red Hook at The Lower Third (daughter's choice)
Indoor Pets & The Hubbard's at Colours in Hoxton
Particularly looking forward to Gallus. About as Scottish as it's possible to be!

Caught The Reytons in Barcelona tonight. Blown away. One of the best gigs I've seen since The Idles were here.

I may have misheard the chorus but doubt it and I kinda switched off after that.Sing pro England songs, sing pro Ireland songs, sing what you want (within reason) but please don’t sing anti English songs or anti Ireland especially when you’re in England
Love not hate.
Spoilt it for me.2 -
The Who were good tonight but suffered a few sound issues. Managed to catch up with @Solidgone before the show, always a pleasure but was still suffering after yesterday so couldn’t join him in a drink!

The last Who gig?…@Davemehmet and I have been saying this for a few years now. But I’ll see you at the next who gig.
Level 42 were very good too.2 - Sponsored links:

I went to a gig for the first time on Friday at the Roundhouse in Camden to see Skunk Anansie. They were great, unlike the warm-up group before them. There was one dodgy moment when Skin was crowd surfing a giant pig (as you do) and fell off, but managed to get back on and complete a lap without further incident.0

DaveMehmet said:Got a few gigs coming up. Potentially the Skalites in Sidcup next Saturday, The Who the day after, Secret Affair at Dartford social club April 4th and The Chords at the 100 Club the following Saturday (supported by my mate’s band, Mojo Blues).0

Went to the London Palladium last night and saw the Northern Live, Do I Love You show, highly recommend it if you like Northern Soul.....not a gig as such but thought I'd mention it.4
-
I took the wife to see the Sugababes at the O2 tonight. I have to say whilst not my “bag” they were superb 9/10.1
-
Freddie Halkon last night at The Grace in Highbury, a Sheffield lad we first caught in support at The Reytons.
Tiny venue but sold out for the first night of his debut tour. The crowd were excellent and he looked over the moon to be there. Short set as he only has a limited number of songs so far but he came out afterwards to chat to people and have photos. Really good night.2 -
I have got tickets to see Robyn Hitchcock on the Golden Hinde. I didn't realise it was a venue for live music.1
-
Gallus at The George Tavern for me next week. Looking forward to it. Rumour that Soapbox are supporting them as well, that would be a great two band line up.1
-
The Chords were great at the 100 Club tonight but my mate’s band, Mojo Blues were much better.

Went to see Heilung at Brixton Academy last night. Most bizarrely, wonderfully surreal experience. Felt more like being at an ancient ritual than a concert.
