Bit of a barren month January Connie but I'll keep an eye out. Any preferences music wise?
Good gig by the Coral last night at Mountford Hall. Highlight definatley mass participation of the crowd in Pass It On, one more time when it's done, and all this has gone, just find a feelingpass it onGreat song, great group.
I'm going to see Caribou at the kazimier on wednesday, can't wait.
Me too. Farm tonight though.Iron and Wine playing at the Phil in March if anyone is interested. And quite frankly if you are not interested then you need a visit to the docs to get your ears syringed
How were the Farm?, gutted I couldn't make it.
Weller tomorrow
Cast on Thursday for me, can't wait.
Just looking through the thread and noticed a few gigs at the Phil.Went to see the Saw Doctors there about 3 years ago , and must admit I wasn't impressed . We were up in the Gods and the rising heat was unbearable . Also think at the time that it was either a pain in the arse to get served or you couldn't take drinks back to your seats. Also a bit staid for me as a gig venue .Wouldn't go back there for a gig to be honest. Of the main smaller venues , I'll stick with the Mountford Hall or the Academy.
Might have had a bad night mate, I would definitely give it another try!
They're both huge. The Phil is a good venue if the band is right for it. Iron and Wine there next year will be fucking great.Gruff Rhys to play the Kazimier next Feb as well folks

Seriously though going to see a pub band in an orchestral concert hall is always going to be a bit shite. I don't think you'd quite get the full finesse of Petrenko and the Phil in O'Neills either. Horses for courses.
He did have a bad night... it was the Saw Doctors mate ....
Bit ropey to start with, the "old pictures of Liverpool" visuals was the highlight early on but they grew into it nicely and by the time we got to the encore of Altogether Now the place was rocking. Great night out as the post-gig secret rave / warehouse party was great
get thee to the library before the c*nts close it down
we are a bunch of twats commenting on a website.
Gruff Rhys at the Kazimier sometime next month will be supported by one of my favourite up and coming bands - Y Niwl ('The Mist' in english I think). Play quality Welsh surf rock with a strong psych accent. Well worth a watch, saw them at Green Man fest last year.
Cheers mate. Going to that gig will look out for them. One less cocktail in Santa Chupitos it is then.
Don't suppose you know anywhere that might have any tickets left? When I search online all sites seem to come up sold out. Anywhere in town selling them by any chance?Curse my disorganised nature! Years ago I would have been right on this. These days I seem to discover most gigs the day after they happen...
Have a look at the Harvest Sun page on Facebook and sign up for their mailing list mate. Last I heard there were a few tix left at Probe in town but that was a few weeks ago. It is worth getting on the Harvest Sun mailing list though because for previous sell outs they have sold a few tix on the day that had been earmarked for the guest list...
Connie:http://www.thezanzibarclub.com/page2.htmlUsually a good bet for a local band. There is normally free music just further along Slater St in Mello Mello too.
This is on at the Barfly tomorrow night. Sorry, couldn't find a larger flyer.
I went to the Bruce Springsteen 10 Bands 10 Minutes, it was brilliant.
