Just thought we needed something like this! I will highlight bands name, so people can skim through the thread quickly. Some tours just announced this week which may interest people. Neil Young is in Europe in March, so far he has announced 7 Uk dates, including london, manchester and Edinburgh. There is also a paris date, nothing about an Irish date yet. Below is an excerpt from ticketmaster about the shows, looks great! Neil Young will perform two sets; the first an acoustic performance and the second an electric set backed by a full band consisting of Ben Keith (guitar), Rick Rosas (bass) and Ralph Molina (drums). The tour also has an exciting support artist in the shape of Young’s wife Pegi, who recently released her self-titled debut album, and will be performing with Anthony Crawford. ------------- Good Grief, Charlie Brown |

And the second tour that may be of interest is that hot on the heels of the Led Zep gig, Robert Plant has released tour dates for 2007 with alison Krauss! and not zep, so far only four Uk dates announced, Birmingham, London, cardiff and manchester. This tour is in may. No irish dates yet, but there is a two week gap between cardiff and london shows, so who knows. ------------- Good Grief, Charlie Brown |

Velvet Revolver have tickets for two shows in ambassador in Dublin on sale today, the gigs are on 12th & 13th of March. Expensive enough to see them at €55 plus ticketmaster charges. But may be of interest to G'N'R fans. They still dont play much of the G'N'R back catalogue, just "used to love her" ------------- Good Grief, Charlie Brown |

Radiohead have a added an extra date. Tickets are now available for this. RADIOHEAD Tickets from €71 plus ticketmaster fees. This gig is almost in the Groves back garden! If you have never seen them, they are well worth the money. I have seen them several times and they are great live. ------------- Good Grief, Charlie Brown |

though just wondering do you work for Ticketmaster ???? No, just that none of the above tickets are on other sites like http://www.tickets.ie - www.tickets.ie or http://www.wavtickets.com/though - http://www.wavtickets.com/though most of them can be bought in person from the Sound cellar on nassau st. Smaller shops like Freebird, Road Records or City Records in Dublin, while they sell tickets, they rarely get tickets for the the bigger gigs as ticketmaster doesnt give them to them. So for a lot of gigs in Ireland, there really is not much of a choice unless you work in the city centre of Dublin. Becase even if you buy them in your local spar or music shop in galway, they are just an outlet for ticketmaster. With putting in the prices & ticketmaster, I was kind of doing several things, one to show how expensive it has become to go gigs over here now, and to show that even though it says €55 on the site, to be aware that there will still be an extra service charge as well, which can really add up if you are getting more than one ticket. Plus for some people who dont go to many concerts they may be unsure of where to get them anymore. If there are other options on where to get tickets, i will mention it. In the UK, ticketmaster are big but they havent got the same hold as they do over here, and there are other options like seetickets.com or stargreen, or wayahead tickets. ------------- Good Grief, Charlie Brown |

She says " well the usual Avril Lavigne and all of Marillion, oh and make sure you add " Warm Wet Circles" !!!!. There you go, chip off the old block and the little person in question happens to be called " Kayleigh". Hmmm..wonder why ?? !!. Anyhow, lucky thing, go to the gig and file the report !! Mins. |

Strangely enough, the first time I saw these guys was in Denmark at the Tonder festival a few years back. Great craic altogether. Saw them again last year in the Tripod and they weren't half as good. Maybe it was because they were sloshed, maybe because I was sloshed or maybe just because the one-trick runs a bit thin after a while. Definitely worth seeing at least once though. And for all their messing, they are fantastic musicians.
------------- Half my life I spend deciding if the other half is all that exciting... |

Belfast is a buzzing city Pete. You should stay up there if you do go to the gig and go on the lash for the night. Get the Enterprise up and back, only takes two hours. Sure you could even drive up. It's mad though. In the old days the roads on the far side were much better than ours, now it's the complete opposite. .............failing that, you could get the bus..............with Shaun |

Saw him here in Perth last year, got some free tickets and I must say if I had of paid for them I would have been disappointed for parting with the cash. The show wasn't that good at all really. You could see it was just an aging ol rocker trying to do what he used to be good at. We also have him on the radio here at night and he is much better at that. His show is really good and he is very quick witted. I think he only lives for his golf these days, I heard he is a scratch golfer or close to it.

My husband is a big blues fan and has a few Seasick Steve cd's. Wouldn't be my thing but I saw him on Jools Holland's New Year's Eve show and he wasn't bad. 22 days to go to The Mission gigs in London. I'm heading over there for three of the four gigs along with Shaun N. Any other Groveheads planning on heading over? Jen ------------- "Gentlemen! You can't fight in here, this is the War Room!" |

Yes Joey-Tonto,myself and the gang would often make a point to see Stairway to Zeppelin,remembering that they are just a tribute band. By that I mean go and listen to some Zep songs played well. I used to go to gigs with a guitarist from an old band and he used to drive me mad as he'd be criticising every note played,standing there with a frowned expression analysing every song and word to the point that he (or the rest of us) couldn't enjoy it. (you know who you are S!) They do the dress up thing as well,and frontman even does a Plant impression while speaking and introducing the songs! 8 and a half out of ten. ------------- There are three kinds of people in the world,those who are able to count,and those who can't... |

Not a music gig but went to see Dave Hughes last night (comedian) He was hilarious. Much better than he is on TV. Perth gang if you get a chance go along and see him. Very funny.
