mufcok Posted Monday at 12:57 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 12:57 PM Fontaines over the weekend. The band of the moment, for sure. Sound so good/tight. Headliners in the years that follow the fallow year, I suspect, pending another strong record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crocodiles Posted Monday at 02:50 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 02:50 PM 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernSoul52 Posted Monday at 03:03 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 03:03 PM 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.

Seeing them on Weds and really looking forward to it. Will get thinking of a song for the encore then… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the main show was great 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.

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 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernSoul52 Posted Monday at 07:47 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 07:47 PM Fabulous songwriter. Old Red Eyes is Back is such a wonderfully caustic singalong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomDom1984 Posted Tuesday at 12:03 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:03 PM I love Vampire Weekend's encore thing. Feels like the sort of thing that SHOULD be happening in an encore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitruc97 Posted yesterday at 09:12 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 09:12 AM 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipine Posted 16 hours ago Report Share Posted 16 hours ago (edited) 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. Edited 16 hours ago by Pipine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CantWaitForGlasto22 Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago 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. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernSoul52 Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
