ArcticJambo Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Really fancied Air doing Moon Safari at the RAH but didn't fancy the prices, was looking at 250 a seat! Even looking at it as a one off treat I couldn't really justify it, as all in with transportation and accommodation youre likely looking at a grand.

Great show though. 😄 A pal put them on in Edinburgh years ago and said they were decent guys but knew next-to-diddlysquat about good old Eire. Saw them once at a festival and they were pretty good. Some naked guy got on stage, bopping about with his tadger geeing it laldy before putting his arm around the singer - not Ken Casey - who acted like he'd been electrocuted.

jambosean75 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Ugly Kid Joe were absolutely amazing last night. i don't know if it was because it was the last night of the tour but they just seemed like they wanted to have fun and spent the night interacting with the crowd, having a laugh and rocking out as hard as they could. wasn't more than a casual fan before who knew the name and a few songs but will definitely be keeping an eye out for them coming back. the warm up act the virginmarys i hadn't heard before but were very good and gave their all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boag1874 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 The Hives at the Barras last night - will take some beating!

Couldn't get tickets for Taylor Swift, though. I saw Coldplay's first ever two Scottish gigs back in November 1999. They were supporting Icelandic indiepop legends Bellatrix. The first night was at the Attic (now Legends and, before that, Opium) and the second night was at King Tut's. I'm not quite sure why I even bothered to watch them the second night after being bored rigid by them the first night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, twenty years on I’d probably open the curtains to watch Coldplay if they were playing in my garden. Age gets to us all. And I’d definitely go to see Taylor Swift. A few years spent in Texas means I’m a fan of the sort of pop-country style which marked her early years, and quite like the recent stuff. I’d just looked at her with my ears plugged for the stuff in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
