The reviews the Hives are getting are extremely positive. Pissed off I didn’t make an effort now. Next time.
I thought they were better Arctic Monkeys when I saw them supporting in Manchester last year like
I seemed to miss this tour as well somehow
Stockton Calling today! Weather looks decent too
Theres 3/4 bands I really want to catch but will just be doing the usual wander around hoping to see something new/great!
Well, where to start, what a great great day!
So many good bands, quite a few Id not seen before but If I had to pick out a few;
- Dayzies (ill let him off being a mag),
- Blackout The Arcade - for a band on early, they were great
- The Chase, brilliant as always, one of those bands you walk away at end grinning and smiling, really enjoy their gigs
- The Covasettes, great young band, not seen them before but really good
- The Kairos, again not seen before but heard great things, thought they were excellent - had them on Spotify all morn!
- The Lilacs, only caught first few songs but liked them, need to see them again, but my daughter made us race back to Ku for...
Corella - again id seen them before but its great to see a band just get better, sound better and more confident - deserved to be top of the billing and pleased im made the decision not to see Zutons or Bluetones instead (bands ive prob not seen for 20 years!)
Bought tickets late this year but for £40, brilliant value - Love living in Stockton with a great music scene/venues!
