Vampire weekend at Manchester apollo last night great fun crowd in good form .

Great set well over 2 hours .

Slightly strange encore of doing covers that crowd shouted out bit hit and miss .

But the main show was great 

Great! Glad they are still putting on a good show. Seeing them on Weds and really looking forward to it. Will get thinking of a song for the encore then…

Agreed, great set, really enjoyed it - foregoing support to do an extended set ended up working well, thoroughly entertained throughout now they have the discography to back up a longer show.

 

Laughed when someone requested Neutral Milk Hotel and he tried to start remembering how it went, probably about five people in the room (me included!) would have known it enough to sing along.

Hard-Fi at Leeds University Union last Friday were in very good nick, better than I must say I expected.

 

Paul Heaton on the Saturday at First Direct Arena was reliably excellent, as always, though I do wish that he had taken his short "hits" tour into the bigger venues.

 

I know some people who saw Paul Heaton at Bridlington the other day, and they said he was amazing. I love him, got to admit 😁

Fontaines at Leeds Arena last night.

 

The band of the moment it seems, and it was easy to see why. Sound was incredible and the band were so tight. Crowd pretty lively for a Tuesday night too. 

 

As mentioned previously would be no shock to see them headlining in 2027 should they keep riding the wave.

Dead Pony last night in the little room at Leadmill.  Absolutely wild gig with a very enthusiastic crowd, lost a shoe in the mosh pit and got ringing ears despite earplugs (must research better ear protection).

 

Really enjoyed one of their supports - Gallus, would definitely look out for them in the future.

Vampire Weekend sounded incredible tonight at Hammersmith Apollo - new tunes sounding as good as the old ones and LOVED their encore taking random song requests from the crowd. Amazing talent to hit all those tunes without rehearsing (The Kinks, Shania Twain, Michael Jackson, George Harrison….i think they could sing the phone book). Really hoping to see them again on the farm. Fingers crossed. Plenty of material to keep us dancing at the Pyramid.

Great band and sure they will have a great future.

Having suddenly become free on the Wednesday night at short notice, ended up plumping for the cheaper confines of The Horrors over Sam Fender in Leeds. Something To Remember Me By, genuinely for me, one of the best songs of the post-millennium period.

 

Live show itself a little too hazy, but hey ho, that's part of the appeal. Belgrave Music Hall does sensational pizza.
