Forthcoming gigs.


Bit of a mixed bag for me: Black Pumas (Hammersmith Apollo, I think) this Sunday, which should be good; the Style Councillors (the Cluny) on Easter Saturday; Paul Weller (Shepherds Bush) on 2 April; Michael Head, somewhere in Hackney in early May. Looking forward to Black Pumas the most.
 
Dunno if it counts a "gig" but I'm going to see Justin Hawkins tomorrow where he'll be giving a talk.
His YouTube channel is invariably interesting and I find him engaging as a character.
 
Got my Interpol ticket yesterday, need to get sorted out for Kevin Morby at Boiler Shop in the morning as well. Pleasantly surprised at that only being £25.

Feeder @ Boiler Shop - tomorrow night
Slum Village @ The Cluny
Ibibio Sound Machine @ Boiler Shop
Honeyblood @ The Cluny
Hieroglyphics @ Northumbria Uni
Kevin Morby @ Boiler Shop
Future Islands @ City Hall
Explosions in the Sky @ Boiler Shop
Interpol @ City Hall

Think that's everything I've got tickets for at the moment.

It's weird, I thought he was a joke and no way could it be interesting to listen to him picking apart a song, it really works though, he's class!

I got PSB tickets eventually, website couldn't cope with demand like. Took over an hour.
It was a shambles.

you spelt clusterfcuk wrong...

i stared at 9... had tickets for front middle & back over the course of an hour... Jay retweeted someone on twitter saying that the basket would open on the gala website if you got that far (which i had), so i jumped over to the gala site and was able to complete the purchase - that was 10:55!!!

in the middle of all that i'd bought tickets for elbow at the city hall which took about 90 seconds start to finish when they came online at 10... i appreciate that durham brass arent ticketmaster, but still...
