A new wrenchless version for Paris. Great version. Even had the little guitar riff. 

 

 

The song I'm most excited for on Tuesday

His Bobness in Paris on Friday. Loved it. 

 

Cracking venue.

 

 

That looks gorgeous!

 

Good place for a curling tournament.

Dream State in Leeds last night, and I do try to lean positive in these verdicts, so I'll say that there was some promising energy from them.

 

But the sound mix drowned out the vocalist immensely, and songs did just seem to bleed into one another without too much tone or difference. Ultimately ducked before the encore, something I try to actively avoid unless transportation means I must, but in this instance, it just sadly wasn't up to snuff.

A real shame that. Saw them with the old singer at slammy d some time back. She was really something, so much so, I've mostly ignored the new iteration. How is the new singer on a front level?

Voice is good, and she seems quite chill. But whether it was down to the setting or the size of the box stage at the venue, she was also seemed reluctant between songs. Hawked the merch, gave a few smiles, but didn't hold you in the palm of the hand.

 

This being said, virtually everyone else there last night appeared to be having a great time, and I had come off a pretty rough day. I'd like to give them another shake.

PSB did not disappoint last night. Great stuff, new tracks sounded really good and the stage set up was lush. Plus dancing cosmonauts.

Got tickets to see em in Bexhill at the de la warr pavilion, at least part-inspired by your ticket quest! They're such a strange band, really looking forward to it (admittedly its at the end of march, which is a wee while away)

Watched Blossoms last night in Bristol, so good live what great fun they are!

[NorthernSoul52]

Off to Chelsea Wolfe this evening, which seems fitting for the date.

 

It's in an Irish centre, which is less fitting, but we move.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Hallowe'en is Celtic you heathen

[NorthernSoul52]

Haven't been called that for a few years.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Off to see Ice Spice tonight.

 

Prediction is that she'll do 40 mins max

[NorthernSoul52]

That's very sixties of her. 

[NorthernSoul52]

A tidy eighty-five minutes at Chelsea Wolfe tonight, though significantly less of a song and dance made about the date than expected. A very good performance.

Went to go see Public Service Broadcasting in Aylesbury last night. Only just got in as the show was about to start after a nightmare with parking but band themselves - top marks.

 

Did Sputnik and Night Mail, which I'm happy with, plus also we got a song I gather they hadn't played in years and lots of light-up skull masks for everyone but the main guy who jokingly called them unapproved. Was a good night.

Assuming the same set up, but I forgot to give a shout out to the horn section in my previous comment!

 I went to the Manchester show on a late and free ticket from a friend - new very little about her - but good show will be listening to more in the future.

The Antlers were absolutely stunning at Union Chapel on Wednesday.

 

Will still never know why they never reached the same scale that a lot of the late 00s P4K indie darlings did.

EERA was great as well. It was quite a nice little dynamic and a long way from the early days when I gather it was just one man by himself.

Looking forward to the Bad Seeds tomorrow night. A mate in Antwerp very much enjoyed the show.
