WhiteRoseKillie Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Neil Young confirmed as playing Hydro on June 7th next year. Saw him couple of years back with Crazy Horse and was decent. Would love to see him do a set of his own material though. Not sure if serious...? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcat1990 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Not sure if serious...? Sorry, worded that completely incorrectly. Meant a set of his solo stuff instead of his work with Crazy Horse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salmonbuddie Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) Sorry, worded that completely incorrectly. Meant a set of his solo stuff instead of his work with Crazy Horse. Have a look at the setlists from the gigs he's played so far on this tour, looks like he comes on and does 6 or so solo acoustic numbers before the Nelson boys join him for the Monsanto Years stuff. Even then, there's loads of non-Horse stuff e.g. a couple of songs from both Harvest and Harvest Moon. Just hope he lives long enough to make it over!

WhiteRoseKillie Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 The Horse, while a hell of a backing band, are just that when they're accompanying Neil. He's a bit of a control freak, you know. I do agree with the sentiment, though, at least I think I know what you mean now. Neil's stuff can be sorted into different categories, some of them pretty damned esoteric - or nigh-on unlistenable for the uninitiated. I personally like his more acoustic stuff best, but the way some of those songs get beefed up with a real kick ass backing band on stage gives them a whole new dimension. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpetmonster Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Just got tickets for The Cure supported by The Twilight Sad in June, fucking chuffed. The Cure in an outdoor venue in Miami in June should be interesting though, Bob'll melt if he tries to put a cardigan on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Went to see One Night of Queen again, fantastic as always. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdogunderdog underdog Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Got standing tickets for The Libertines at The Hydro. Not been in standing section there yet. Saw The Libertines at o2 Academy earlier in the year but only had seating tickets. Reverend and the Makers and The View both supporting which makes it even better. Seeing Admiral Fallow next month so good start to the year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallochSonsFan Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 First 4 gigs of 2016: Frazey Ford Lindi Ortega Jason Isbell Jan 22nd, 23rd and 24th. Milk Carton Kids Jan 30th. Still really tempted by Eleanor Friedberger - new album is getting top reviews and her previous 2 were fantastic - but its the same night as the Superbowl and theres no way I'd make it home for kick-off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 I'd say Take That was my favourite of the year. Editors, Slipknot, AC/DC and Enter Shikari deserve mentions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdogunderdog underdog Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Editors and The Libertines, both at o2 Academy were my favourites. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TransilvanianSpider Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Seen The Begbies, Buddhist Punks, The Tripps and Scunner at King Tuts on Dec 29th. All really great acts. My favourites of the night were The Begbies and The Tripps. Also seen The Lapelles at Broadcast on the 28th. All really great bands here. Worth having a look at all of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross. Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 The Darkness on the 20th. Noticed the gig being advertised over the weekend and thought I might as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hard Graft Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Hawkwind at ABC on 15th April in support of their new album " The Machine has Stopped". If it is anything like the Xmas gig in london it will be a stonker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie95 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Billy Joel at MSG tomorrow night. Nice, I'm away to see him in September. Was he any good live? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross. Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 AC/DC playing Bern later this year, tickets on sale on Monday morning. Seen them last year in Zürich. Tempted to try and get tickets again but not sure I fancy a Sunday night effort in this country. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harlowspider Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Nice, I'm away to see him in September. Was he any good live? Very good. New York State of Mind just made more sense in NY. Jimmy Fallon (who replaced Letterman as host of the Late Show) was the guest. $11.50 for a pint of Stella in MSG though. I have tickets for Wembley also. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
