Just booked - Austin City Limits Celebrates 50 Years, tomorrow at ACL Live! This sold out a long time ago, but two tickets just popped up and we grabbed them. This is being filmed for broadcast, presumably in 2025.
Here's are the announced performers: Leon Bridges, Gary Clark Jr. joined by Eve Monsees, Billy Strings featuring Sierra Hull and Zach Top, Indigo Girls, Lyle Lovett, Shawn Colvin, Brandy Clark, Rufus Wainwright, The Mavericks, Ángela Aguilar, Cam and Lloyd Maines & the ACL All-Stars, and appearances by Trio Los Panchos and the Tosca String Quartet.
The host is hometown boy Jared Padalecki of Supernatural (I still think it's crazy that the stars of Supernatural were both born and raised in Texas). This will be fun!
Look forward to hearing about this, how lucky! I only know of Lyle Lovett, Rufus Wainwright and The Mavericks. Can’t wait to see Rufus live again. |

Just booked to see Talisk in Exeter this week, supported by Blair Dunlop. For some reason it wasn't on my radar until I saw an advert on FB this morning.
Then Oysterband at the same venue a week on Monday, and War Horse (touring production) in Plymouth the day after. Not sure who's the Songman on this tour.

System7 (Steve Hillage & Miquette Giraudy) at Stroud Subscription Rooms this Friday, and Oysterband at the same venue a week tomorrow.
And a shameless plug for the Victoria Ukulele Group's festive gig next Wednesday at Cafe Revive in Gloucester's Eastgate Market Shopping Mall, 1pm-3pm. Revive raises money and awareness for the homeless and rough sleepers in and around the city.

Tomorrow night, I'm off to see a double header of Canadian bands who play in the Southern rock style - The Sheepdogs & The Commoners. They're both excellent on record so I'm hopeful of a great show.

My opinion of him has grown massively in the last couple of decades having realised what a driving force he was behind CSN. I love seeing him live. I see the support is Peter Asher!! How long since he's played live? Could be interesting. I have his autograph (and Gordon's) from the 60's . Be interesting to have 2 that are 60 years apart. |

I saw the Sheepdogs a few years ago in Cardiff. I didn't know them at all and I only went because my nephew's band, The Good Water, were supporting them. However, I thoroughly enjoyed their set.

Soft Machine at Huntingdon Hall in Worcester in March. I'll be going to this one, after my disappointment at their gig in Cheltenham earlier this year - music was fine, but the audience seemed to comprise people who had no interest whatsoever, just wanted to be seen to be there.
Adam Wakeman's Jazz Sabbath in Worcester as well - not sure about that one...
And, of course, FC's Wintour gig at Tewkesbury.

Just got tickets for Duran Duran at Powderham Castle, Exeter for next July. Very excited as:
1. They are a fantastic live band, and John Taylor is a phenomenal bass player
2. I’m going with my 19 year old daughter. Our musical tastes intersect in a few places (Stevie Nicks earlier this year was great), so I’m looking forward to her experiencing Duran in full flow
3. The tickets were a relatively decent price (£80)

Two gigs in Liverpool on Fri and Sat is one too many for my somewhat broken body atm, so if anybody wants a pair of cheap tickets for Stornoway at St Barnabas Church on Saturday night, do drop me a line (PDF tickets). They were £18.25 inc fees, so...£25 gets then pair. Still looking forward to Mick Head at the Phil', mind...

Back to the '70s with my annual outing to see darts at The Brudenell in Leeds this evening.
I was just about to laughingly query how many original members they had and then saw that all nine members participated in the band during the 'golden years'. Well, well, well... I seem to remember somebody else on here who used to go on about Darts a lot...but maybe that was you? RobertD and also me, probably |

Very excited by the upcoming Sea Power soundtracks set. I bailed out of Krankenhaus on the Sunday evening so didn't see it there...and my Sue's been going on about it ever since. I love everything Sea Power do but this is the sh1t I really adore...

Last gig of the year tonight - John Kirkpatrick doing his Christmas themed Carolling and Crumpets tour at The Plough, Great Torrington. Should be fun!

Just seen that Fairport are playing Sidmouth Festival in 2025. RT is there as well, could there be surprise guest(s) at either concert?

Just booked, Bill Murray and his Blood Brothers, Paramount Theater, March 25!
This is too weird to pass up. I am uncertain what exactly this performance will entail, but I read something that implies they are a semi-serious cover band.
A few years ago, he put together a poetry and classical music touring show. I believe that was a completely straight endeavor, which must have left some audiences confused.

Oysterband, Merry Hell, Martin Simpson and a few others this Saturday at West Coast Folk Festival. Not exactly sure what to expect, it's at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool and the event website is bit short on information.
