BSS presents Kevin Drew 3223 4
Started by elmo95
Brilliant to any other standards though it was bordering to the maximum of absurdity when we were forced to sing Where the Street Have no Name. I say 'made' in the way that I love Kevin Drew and would even sing U2 to please him. NO KC or IBI!

two hours late on to an angry crowd. Thought it was OK, but a lot of bigger fans were well pissed off.

Hybrasil 4596 1
Started by ishrink
What happened They used to be deadly.
Seems they've taken they're own lyrical advice a bit too literally and forgotten those sythesizers to become a star.
New tunes are mostly bland guitar based almost Snow Patrol-y pop with keys just as backing, mostly.
They've even redone 2 of their, formerly excellent, old tracks as guitars-by-numbers tunes by kicking the keys to the background.
Bad move lads, yous really excel at the dancier numbers. It was made all the...

How was it for you
fantastic - final fantasy, Deerhoof (amazing drummer), beasties (although i was outside the tent), sonic youth
very good - Chemicals, bat for lashes (missed the second half of the set), Archetecture in helsinki (let before the end to get some jarvis, shouldn't have), Delorentos, Erasure, the go team (again didn't see the full set) sitting around the 'chill' stage, the ticket magazine i got in the morning (similar to ones at other festivals), managing to avoid t...

Foo Fighters - Marlay Park 2947 2
Started by John Doe
Possible contender for gig of the year...well for me anyway. Happiness is beautiful weather, a pit band, and the Foo Fighters playing a blinder of a gig. Interesting set list - they started with Everlong ( unusual as they normally end gigs with this ), finished with All My Life, played Enough Space, which is a f*cking savage song from The Colour and the Shape and which I wasn't expecting as they rarely do it live these days. Played one new song ( The Pretender ) and a cover which I didn't recogn...

Was at this over the weekend. Utterly brilliant, so good it's hard to find fault with it...really! The only word to describe the woodland and lake setting of Belvedere House, just outside Mullingar, was magical, especially on Sunday when we got the first hot day of the summer...incredible mix of people, (indie kids,Thirtysomething EP types, parents and their kids)...no queues for the the toilets (for the men anyway!!) or the bar..lovely food stalls...no skangers...no trouble or arrests...no seri...

George Clinton last night. 3253 3
Started by Peejay
Fantastic show last night from Clinton and Co. They blew the roof off Tripod for FOUR hours, with hardly any let-up at all. The mid-show guitar noodling went on a little too long, Maggot Brain was cool, but then he kept going and going. I didn't mind though, the last quarter of the show was superb. There was non-stop music for a solid two hours. Everybody was dancing.
The revolving door of characters onstage was gas aswell and Clinton (with flourescent pink hair) more often than n...

Annuals @ Whelan's 3252 10
Started by crucifixio
I thought they were really good last night even though most of the small crowd left after the chapters. Obviously, not many people know of Annuals yet or it could be the fact that it was a Monday night before Oxegen!
Just want to know if people know them and if so what do they think

Anyone else make this gig
PG was fantastic, played several tracks from his early albums which made it for me, being a big fan of his late 70s/early 80s stuff
Good show from Crowded House too but missed Starsailor
