Although appreciative, the crowd were a wee bit tame. Maybe I'm forgetting that it's about 25 years on and the audience aren't as young as we used to be. The support band (Pins) were really good too. Finished off at Howling Wolf for a couple of night caps. Great night. Was there also with the Mrs . Thought they were excellent . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southside saint Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Was at Gary Numan at the ABC last Tuesday and again at Brixton Acadamy on Saturday. Two excellent nights, the stage set at Brixton was especially impressive. First time at Brixton since 2000, forgot what a great venue it is. Next up, James Grant on Saturday.

southside saint Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) James Grant at the Abbey last Saturday was immense. Some great local talent on display as well. The original songs he performed about the Glen Cinema disaster and the "found music notes" were far too good to be performed/heard only once. Hope they appear on a recording. Alvarez Kings were again excellent last week at QMU supporting the disappointingly bland Switchfoot. Finiflex( Finitribe) at Nice and Sleazy on Friday showcased their new album. A storming set, loved it. Edited October 30, 2017 by southside saint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm coming up for it. Lad at work is a Big Country fanatic. Just mentioned that they were on with the skids in Paisley and he was up for going. I originally thought i'll just go up for a trip away and a few beers etc but after watching the Skids on youtube last night i'm really looking forward to the music side of the trip. What's the town hall like as a venue? Couple of bars in there? Despite years of visiting Paisley i've never set foot in there. We're in the gallery. Is that one of those balcony type areas? Spot the non concert goer eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, Stuart Adamson is irreplaceable, but the last time I saw Big Country a couple of years ago, they were very good too. I saw Heaven 17 in the town hall, and we were in the gallery too, as we will be on Friday. It is up on the balcony, where you get an excellent view. I thought the sound was fine, but I'm no purist. There was definitely at least one bar there. Looking forward to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTOF Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 (edited) I f**king love Richard Jobson! What a man. The Skids were absolutely magnificent, as ever. Big Country were as good as they could be, without the sadly departed main man. Although, even my uncultured ears thought there were a few issues with sound quality for their set. Perfect for The Skids though. Ended up pished in The Bull. Edited November 18, 2017 by FTOF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastlandssaint Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 O M D - Glasgow royal concert hall, brilliant opening, then one or two sound glitches culminating with the mixing deck packing in! Glad to say it was fixed after a fifteen minute delay, no problems after that, finishing after 11:00. Well done lads for another fantastic show .

They are playing in Dumfries the same day we play at QOS in March, so staying down for the gig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
