Upcoming gigs?

[Kenny]

Should have built something along lines of the Hydro in Leith years / decades ago.

Still some great venues and nights out to be had in Edinburgh in amongst lots of $#@!e.

Picture House in Lothian Road a big loss

Story goes that the hydro WAS supposed to be in leith but Edinburgh city council didn't want it there...the council offered up another site.

They wanted it at a site at inglestone. .which the hydro folk agreed to, as long as the tram was extended. The council said no.

Glasgow city council got wind and offered them space next to the secc with new car parking and new roads.

Shame put on a great show at Stereo in Glasgow tonight. Venue only holds 350 but on the back of six weeks in USA they also have a gig booked at the O2 in November. Really good live but I just had to buy the support bands cd after the gig. Three girls and a guy drumming. From Germany and reminded me of Sleater Kinney and Savages with a bit of the fabulous Kleenex / Liliput thrown in there too :applause:GURR was the name.

Gurr are great. I had them on heavy rotation on my Spotify last year after they got a bit of play on 6Music. Kinda gutted I missed them. Didn't even realise they were playing Glasgow.

Not a music gig but I saw Warhorse for the second time this week. It's in a league of its own.

Ok folks, I know this won't be everyone's cup of tea but there's a concert coming up at St Cuthbert's Church in Edinburgh featuring The Cory Band and the Whitburn Band On Thursday 5th April.
The Cory Band from Wales are the world's finest brass band and they're performing a joint concert with Scotland's top band Whitburn who are ranked 5th in the world.
If you've never heard brass bands play other than in parades, then give your ears a treat. Brass players are probably the best musicians you're ever likely to hear.

I was in the Edinburgh Schools Brass Band, so I can appreciate a good brass band.

Try n catch the first support at JAMC - Spinning Coin, their album is cool - jangly 80s indie

 

[EastMeetsWest]

Orbital last week at George square Glasgow was top notch. All the old belters plus some new stuff accompanied by a visual extravagance.

Went to see them at Hampden in 1991 as I thought they would be retiring pretty soon after and I'd never seen them before.....

I was also at that gig (the Steel Wheels tour?)with my wife who liked the Stones but wasn't their biggest fan. She had been to many concerts before but said they were the best live band she had ever seen and after many more gigs of various bands she still says the same (Gunn were the support act and were excellent) My brother saw them last year and said that Jagger must have had a heart/lung transplant as he ran about and danced for the whole night and the band is still really tight.

In anticipation of going to see the Proclaimers in the autumn...

They're great live. Ian Bayne is a brilliant drummer and Malcolm Jones makes some great noises in his guitar.

Hope it's good, enjoy!

I was at this and can remember very little of it. I'd been on the bev since before the game and met up with my dad and pals at the Liquid Rooms after another scoopful in Robbie's and nothing to eat... Anyway, I was told this afternoon by my paw that apparently during Knock Off's set when they started rabbiting about Hearts, I let out a rendition of "We Are Hibernian FC" - I have no memory of this whatsoever but it got a reaction apparently.

Got tickets for the Nottingham concert. Lat thing I went to was the Dalkeith retro rock thingy with Midge Ure and various bands..me a lady and several over the top priced bottles of wine..was a great day...except the price

 

[Bofahibee]

Just got tickets to see James Chance (next year ffs!). I remember when he played in Edinburgh in the early eighties - totally blew me away. One of the best gigs I’ve seen - mutant funk at its best.

Edit: I’ve just googled what he looks like now. Seen better days.

Thought you might have been at She Street Band in Glasgow the other night, I couldn’t make it through

If they had played in Edinburgh I might have went. A couple of good Springsteen tribute bands are The Rising and the Springsteen Sessions, both worth seeing if you are a fan of the Boss.

 

[Two Headed Boy]

The Cure, Mogwai and Twighlight Sad in Bellahouston park next summer. Tickets on sale on Friday. I'll be poised in front of a computer ready to snap up a couple.

What a line up!

David Byrne gig at the Hydro on Monday night was amazing
