Forthcoming gigs.

Stockton Gathering Sounds yesterday, superb as always, unbelievable value, less than £30 for day ticket, great venues.
Me and daughters faves;
Spangled, Stanleys (been big fan of these for a few years now!), Pave (lead singer was particularly good on the eye....), Cruz, The Sheratons (next big breakthrough band?), The Royston Club (first time id seen them, was very impressed!)

This following on from Terrovision on Friday night - they were briliant, no more words needed, just class (altho they didnt sing Tequilla?)

Legs are killing now, been a very lazy day today :lol:
If you like Terrorvision mate, I think the lead singer is doing a solo gig in The Central Bar in Gateshead on Sat Nov 30
 

Quality the last dinner party. Great stage presence and abigails vocals are recording quality live.

Seen a lot of posh kids, feminists and a near fight between a posh kid telling 2 geordie lasses to stop talking as was spoiling her experience 🍿
A somewhat alarming situation at The Last Dinner Party gig at Lincoln Engine Shed on Saturday.

Single male attendees (some not all?) were quizzed about the band to 'ensure' they were fans and were not attending for, let's say, 'other' reasons. Apparently some were also searched, for what I don't know.

The venue have confirmed that this took place. Seems the band didn't even play due to illness.

Read that earlier. Only heard of them for the first time because if this thread. Is there a history or an incident that’s lead to this, cos it appears from the small amount of information I’ve read so far that them & their fans just hate blokes :lol:

It’s not that, surely, is it?!

Mental that. The biggest weirdos at the Newcastle gig were lasses!! But each to their own etc 😂

No idea. Not entirely sure what single males were being searched for. Is being profiled a drug dealer too simplistic?

Imagine being someone who just genuinely likes going to see bands and is suspected of being a pervert/dealer.

Doesn’t sound like drugs to be honest. Just that blokes at a gig are predatory. Hope they don’t do this when I go to Wembley for Oasis next year :eek: :lol:
 
Just booked The Darkness in March at wolves civic.

After @Muppet telling me for the past 18 yrs :eek: that they were brilliant I’ve finally decided she might be right 😂

We saw them as support for Guns N Roses and I really enjoyed them. He had brilliant rapport with the crowd. He even caved to crowd pressure and begrudgingly sang "the Christmas song" even though it was June 😂
 
Busy week this week,the courettes tonight at the cluny, tom meighan tomorrow at riverside, the struts on Friday at NX, Ist Ist on Saturday at think tank and tom robinson on Sunday at fire station.
Tom has had to cancel both the Saturday and Sunday gigs. He's got an throat swelling. Tomorrow is still on but I'd rather he postponed if he's not 100%.
(and to when the mags aren't at home)

I'm hoping he postpones just so I can have a night in 🤣, but as u say I'd rather he was 100%

Pretty mad this like…

I was at the city hall last Monday taking the bairn along, as I posted further up this thread I was mildly apprehensive beforehand. The gig itself was spot on, no bother and the crowd in Newcastle was extremely diverse in age and probably contained more girls than boys, but not a raging feminist convention. Was an excellent gif for what’s it’s worth.

To me, this reads like the staff at the venue read the room entirely wrong - or the staff are wrong’ins.

Sounds like an absolute shit-show from the organisers, and frankly, the band too. Seemingly the supports played, but TLDP didn't (?!)
 
“Just arrived at the gig, been funnelled into a dark corner with other men, told I might be a pervert cus I’m alone and then taken into a room alone with a security guard where I was interrogated and searched. Feel sick,”

Wild quote that like, seemingly the band gave this the ok as well.
 
I got 'randomly' searched queuing to get into Newcastle. Didn't see it happen to anyone else in including lads I was with.

Must just look dodgy in black jeans and a lyle Scott jacket 😂
