Went on sale this morning 

 

Got a couple of standing tickets

Still plenty of tickets left just now, but Paul Weller sold out after a few days

Indeed, without him it's just silliness

You were one step beyond me with that one, Smithers.  :sad:

I can't stand their new song, it's awful, it comes on when I'm out in the van, i change the station and it comes on again. 

That and the new Kylie song, utter muck.

I saw them in the SECC years ago, I thought the first few songs and the last few were good , but they went through the motions for the biggest part of the gig, I'd not go to see them again.

They were playing at the Ovo Hydro in Glasgow tonight.

 

They know how to put on a great show. The place was bouncing.

 

As an aside, what is it with folk holding up their phones and filming the gig? You can barely see the stage at times for a sea of phones.

Not been to any gigs for years due to them.

Got standing tickets for the two gigs. Only a week apart.

 

Got tickets for Weller at the Alhambra in Dunfermline as well.

 

Also got tickets for Squeeze on Friday. Playing the Usher Hall.

 

An expensive week to say the least.

Got a ticket for this today. Not been to a gig at the castle. Any good?

If you like standing in the pissing rain it's excellent. It rains every time I go there!

I was at the Sunday Who gig.  Great weather.  It absolutely pissed it down for the Saturday gig.

 

One year I booked two nights for The Stereophonics.  Pissed it down on the first day, and great weather for the second.

 

Basically its outdoors in Scotland during Summer so 50% chamce of rain.

It's a crap venue for a gig. Possibly the worst I've attended. The sound is all over the place and its only selling point is the backdrop.

Never had a problem with the sound but I always go for the standing/stalls area.

I've been to a handful of gigs and been situated at different spots. As expected, the floor level is the better area for sound but on the whole, it's poor. In the stands, it's so exposed that it impacts it big time.
