The B-52s

[dafunk2]

The band (not the planes) are calling it a day and have announced a farewell tour. 4 dates in the UK, with the first being at The Sage on Saturday 29th June. Have had some class tunes over the years. I'll definitely be getting tickets.

I'm away that weekend, bastard!

More of a roam than a tour tbh.

 

[MackneyHackem]

Private Idaho is firmly in my top ten tunes of all time.

Strokes guitarist Nick Valensi features on a number of tracks on Kate Pierson's solo album, which came out four years ago. I will have to check that out.

I saw them at the Kentish Town and Country Club years back. They were great but a very short set - only about 85mins, which I thought was poor form.

Canny, but I prefer a Tom Collins

 

[Thackeray]

Tickets go on sale tomorrow.

 

[Mr Vertigo]

Great band. Really underrated. Although I love Love Shack, I think it's a bit of an albatross around their necks as a point of first contact for most people.

Wig's on fire!

Tickets in the bag! £60 each - but can't wait. The tickets are flying out.

 

[10 Gary Rowells]

Yes, got tickets and it looked like they'll be sold out soon. Favourite band that I haven't yet seen and its their final tour. Can't wait.
