Or if I'm going to be totally honest, they're both absolutely crap![emoji39] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer Metallica's cover of Anti Nowhere League's 'So What' personally. Great lyrics! [emoji39] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamJags Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Bon Iver European tour cancelled for anyone who had tickets. A shame as I would love to have seen them play the new record, but the money being refunded into my account while I'm this skint is pretty welcome. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gutted it's been cancelled but much needed boost to the bank balance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Any Pendulum fans might want to keep an eye out in the near future. Looks like they're about to announce at least one UK show soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

well fan for life Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Not sure if it counts as a gig or not, but I've just booked my ticket for Primavera Sound Barcelona in June. The line up is absolutely insane. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestersKTID Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Went to Avenged Sevenfold and Disturbed last night. A7x were ok but didn't play what i'd consider 4/5 of their best known tracks. Beast and the harlot, seize the day etc although i've not kept up with them since last uk tour. The sound quality was poor from where i was sitting and the drums shat on everything else apart from Gates solos. Could hardly hear shadows. Disturbed didn't play land of confusion or much off of 10000 fists album either which was the stuff that got me into them...shame. But that David Draiman has some voice btw. 43 now. Cover of Sound of Silence was one of the best live performances of a song i've ever seen. Fantastic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross. Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Green Day last night in Zürich. Tremendous as always. Next gig is Fatherson on the 22nd of February, also in Zürich. Outstanding band... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamJags Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Saw The Van T's and Mona over the weekend. Thought The Van T's were pretty poor. Have seen them live a few times now and always thought the venue sound was terrible, but now I think it's because they use far too much reverb to the point where you can't hear any guitar and its more or less just echo or feedback. Their recordings are great, but it doesn't translate well live, which is a shame. The venue was rammed and everyone seemed to be loving it, so maybe it's just me. Mona were absolutely outstanding. Absolutely nothing original about them, but they have some absolutely great tunes. The additional guitarist seems to have helped freshen up the older stuff and the new material was very strong as well. Will be at a gig near enough every night with Celtic Connections coming up. Can't make up my mind whether to see Hurray For The Riff Raff (who I'm not entirely convinced on) or The Glad Cafe Choir sing Bowie on Friday, then will probably go to The Yummy Fur on Saturday since The Felice Brothers gig is cancelled, then have Hazy Recollections on Sunday afternoon followed by Aidan Moffat doing his Where You're Meant To Be stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeAreElgin Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Anyone heading to A Day To Remember at the hydro on Monday? I have a feeling I'm going to feel particularly old there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcat1990 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Dillinger Escape Plan farewell gig just there at the QMU. As perfect a sendoff as you could expect. Unsurprisingly Farewell Mona Lisa and Sunshine The Werewolf were highlights. Im ridiculously sweaty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonsism Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Just back from The Hotelier at - what must have been a sold out - Stereo. Fantastic show and it was great to hear songs from the new album live. First time I "saw" them was a free gig in Bloc a few years back. I couldn't see a f***** thing but it was a very fun and sweaty show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
