An advert came up for him on Facebook for a gif he is playing in Bournemouth, not my sort of thing but I was surprised that he was playing the Old Fire Station , thats quite small venue I though he would be playing bigger places than that |  |

I thought the same when Johnny Marr played at The Brook many years ago
Great to see bigger artists play at smaller venues
On a similar theme Ocean Colour Scene are playing at the fringe festival down the road from me this Saturday, my wife is performing on the same bill, admittedly with the local rock choir that she's a member of, she gets a free ticket for the day which has OCS and The Selecter [Post edited 30 Jun 23:00]

So was I, read about it on here and got a ticket
I always drive past The Brook on my way down to the match, but had never been there, really good venue from what I remember. Got plotted up in a good spot upstairs
Just looked it up, June 2013 [Post edited 30 Jun 23:21]

Its a good venue just a bit of pain to get to unless you drive, the 1865 is the best venue in the City in terms of size and facilities | |

It’s an intimate gig, doing a couple and rest of the gigs this year are bigger venues and a large outdoor one in Crystal Palace. Tour next year for new album. Get yourself along you’ll be amazed how heavy and dark his music is compared to the 80s stuff |  | | |

Expanding on the theme of gigs, just got tickets for next Sunday to see The Coral, Happy Mondays and Supergrass for less than 30 quid each at a festival in Walton On Thames
Seen The Coral and The Mondays a few times before but never Supergrass and thought it was too good an offer to turn down | |

Saw Supergrass last year at the IOW Festival.
They were really good. | |

Going to see Del Amitri in November. Loved their stuff for years but strangely, this is the first time I've had the chance to actually see them. |  |

As you say his recent stuff is far heavier than his early stuff, in some ways similar to the way Depeche Mode have developed.
I have tickets for Old Fire station and will be the 5th time I’ve seen him perform, the first back in 1986, should be great in a smaller venue |  | | |

I saw the Happy Mondays a few times starting in 1987 when they were virtually unknown and supporting New Order up to when they headlined Elland Road in 1991, they were awful on all occasions.
AI has this to say about the 1987 gig
"On June 6, 1987, New Order played a legendary open-air show at the Finsbury Park Supertent in London. The lineup featured supporting acts A Certain Ratio, The Railway Children, and Happy Mondays, with DJ Mike Pickering" | |

I'd be tempted just by The Coral there. I think they have grown in to one of the finest bands around
Are you going to see Michael Head & TREB in S Bush in Dec? |  | | |

Thursday Fire station, and Crystal Palace for me. That’s my 161,162nd Numan gigs.
Prefer middle era D Mode, Violator is a masterpiece. | | | |

So that’s what ex-Saint Mike Pickering did after he stopped playing 🤭😉 | | | |

Now theres a name from the past, only missed 1 game in our promotion season of 1977/78, but I think only played 1 game, maybe 2 in the top flight the following season. | |

Most of there times I've seen them they've been poor, same with Black Grape.
Some friends of my wife run a festival in Bishops Stortford and they had Black Grape as headliners a few years back, Shaun Ryder was a right pain in the arse and a nightmare to deal with apparently, Kermit was a proper nice fella though according to them.
Wer'e going as its pretty local and the tickets were really cheap
Not fussed about seeing Sleeper or The Mondays tbh, but the last couple of times ive seen The Coral they've been really good and a few pals of mine have seen Supergrass and have all said they're great live
I would imagine it will be a pretty sedate affair in the heart of the Surrey stockbroker belt, I'm surprised they didn't try to get local "hero's" Sham 69 on the bill as well | |

They were a new level of awful on Sunday, quite sad really. Shaun Ryder didn't really seem that interested and Bez acted like an drunk embarrassing uncle at a wedding
Decent day out though for 30 quid
The Coral were excellent as were Supergrass | |

"like a drunk embarrassing uncle at a wedding"
Isn't that how they always are? Don't Shaun Ryder and Bez just get by on their image? They can't sing and they can't play music. |  |

Sadly they are nowadays, they should probably stick to doing Gogglebox
I saw them in the late 90's at Brixton and they were excellent, slightly different band as they had the guitarist from Black Grape and keyboard player from The Farm who were much better musicians than the original members of the band | |

I saw them a number of times, back in 1987 they were chaotic but that was part of the charm as such.
Then they got big due to their songs being remixed which was hard to replicate live and they were just shambolic, I think the last time i saw them was at Elland Road in 1991, they started well but descended into chaos as the show went on.
They were unlistenable as it neared the end and we left and went into town.
The fella who climbed one of the big floodlights and refused to come down despite encouragement from the Police must have felt like jumping by the end of the gig | |
