What <img> gigs ;)

I'm almost 100% confirmed to see Ross Noble next friday. :D


Umm, well I love Enter Shikari and Klaxons and I will be seeing them around the same time as Lewis.

I also love Ross Noble, I think he is a very mis-understood comedian, but I think he's great. I would never want to see him live though as I would be too embarresed if he picked me out of the crowd. Have fun though!
 
Tonight, Im going to see Arcade Fire at the Newcastle Metro Arena.

4th November, im going to see Boy Kill Boy at Newcastle.

10th November, Im going to see Bill Baily at he Newcastle Mtetro Arena

Finally, this year Im going to Maximo Park at Newcastle Metro Arena.

This year I have seen around about 25 - 30 gigs and shows, most of them were comedians at the Riverside Festival in Teeside and The Edinburgh International and Fringe Festival.

I've also seen this year:

The Cribs at Newcastle University.
The Zutons at the Knowsely Hall Festival.
Maximo Park ad Manchester Apollo.
The Zutons at the Manchester Apollo.
The Holloways at Newcastle University
The Rakes at Newcastle Carling Academy.
and lots more, but I forget easily.
 
I saw Arcade Fire on Saturday at the MEN, was amazing, though the crowd/venue wasn't great, and they didn't play Laika :(.

But still amazing.

Next gigs are: Bill Bailey, Hives, Kings of Leon (hopefully, if i can get tickets), Queens of the Stone Age, White Stripes when/if they get back on tour, and Radiohead when they announce theirs.
 
Have got tickets to see Ross Noble this friday

Also got tickets to see Lee Evans as well next year, which is cool :D
 
Got a busy weekend coming up, Pendulum at the carling Academy on Saturday, then Stereophonics on Sundat at the BIC, didn't realise they were on the same weekend! Oh well, should be fun :D
 
I saw Arcade Fire on Saturday at the MEN, was amazing, though the crowd/venue wasn't great, and they didn't play Laika .

I know, I was so hoping they would play Laika and Neon Bible, although the rest of the gig was ****ing amazing. It's great when they play Rebellion.
 
Best memory of a gig is metallica headlining download. Played the whole master of puppets album. Was fantastic they over-ran for about an hour they literly had to be pushed off the stage. Anyone else go to this.
 
I'm going to see Jimmy Carr on Monday, at Newcastle City Hall. Bonfire night too.

Possibly going to see The War Of The Worlds musical at the Metro Radio Arena on the 8th of December, thats yet to be confirmed though.

Also Going to see Lee Evans in bournemouth next september

Just got back from Ross Noble and it was ****ing hilarious! I think i just lost it at one point and switched off, but he was rambling on about something weird.
 
Going to see Enter Shikari on Tuesday :D
Last time I saw them they were this little unkown band playing at a local venue, weird.

They sucked there in 1991...............trust me :oops:

Enter Shikari were a pile of pants when they supported MCR in Hammersmith Palais last year!

Saw them last week in Cardiff, they were even better than I expected! The quality of sound was excellent, they went at it full-throttle and the crowd loved it. Still in awe at the way they can swap instruments between songs.

Next gigs are: Bill Bailey
Yep, me too. And We Are Scientists.

and Radiohead when they announce theirs.
Yep, me too. Bitter, stop copying me :p.

Holy cows, how comes I didn't see you post that before, I was there too last night lol.

I also had to get up nice and early this morning too, but omfg it was absolutely amazing!

The first support act were terrible, everyone was chucking glowsticks at them and the guitarist got hit, which amused me. The second support act were actually quite good and they were able to get the crowd going. It was also quite amusing when some members of Shikari ran on stage.

My highlights were definatly their own version of Faithless' Insomnia, which was fantastic. I also loved it when they came back and played Sorry your not a winner, I don't think I've seen a crowd go so skits over a song before, nope sorry, I did see that happen, just before Shikari came on the DJ played Pendulum's Tarantula (sp?) and everyone just went crazy.

I thought it was a brilliant performance by the band though and the stuff being played on the screen behind them was random and also quite cool. The interaction with the crowd was awesome and the finale was a great idea (if you knew lyrics to the last chorus you could try and make your way to the front to sing on stage with the band).

At one point there was a guy smoking behind me and my mates which to be honest we wouldn't have been too bothered about, but he was in a mosh pit and was going insane and the ashes from whatever he was smoking was just going everywhere, meh, we lived.
 
I'm going to see: Mcfly, Sugababes, Leona Lewis, Booty Luv, Scouting for Girls and Aaron Yorke? [<-- Who is he?? :p] on Saturday night.

Free concert type thing in Birmingham to celebrate the christmas lights switching on.

Best thing is it is free and I can't wait to go. =]

Yup, if it was Your Demise then they should have more than glowsticks chucked at them!!!

Insomnia was really good! took me a while to figure it out. SYNAW was their best song live TBH, although Labyrinth was good too.

Pendulum always goes down well lol! :D


Hope you enjoyed yourself!
