What gigs have people got planned for this year then!?
- Thread starter Carzy
- Start date
I may decide to break my festival virginity in this year, though depends who I know goes where.
No idea who I'm going to see this year.
May go see The Subways in April, and try getting a Maximo Park Ticket for October off eBay.
And will likely go see my brothers band Apollomy every other week, they really are very good, though I'm a bit biased

Seen:
The KOOKS - 31st Jan @ the social, Nottingham. They were amazing, and the lead singers voice was simply stunning. The social only holds a few hundred people, so it was very intense and the best gig so far this year.
Nine Black alps - last week @ Rock City, Notts. Quality stuff again, even though i only got into them about a month ago.
Coming up:
Imogen Heap - 6th April @ the social, Notts. I really got into immi after hearing her on the Oc, and now have all her albums. Sensational voice, and great trip hop beats. And with this gig @ the social again, i think she will rival the kooks as my fav!!!
Arctic Monkeys - 13th april@ Rock City, Notts. Q'd for 5 hours in the freezing cold for these tickets,but i can't wait to see them. Am trying not to listen to them too much, and stay away from the radio and music channels so i don't start to hate them. If i do, then they will go up on the bay for £200

P.S Has anyone been to the Manchester apollo, I know it is in quite a dodgy area but it is alright as a venue?
I went there about 10 years ago to see the Levellers.. . and yes it was a bit dodgy around there. Inside it was ok, the floor slopes down toward the stage so you get a decent view. It probabley seems dated now if you've been to the Manchester Academy and its anything like the one in Newcastle. Can't remember what the bar situation is like as I was driving that night...what a chore. What was I thinking driving a 300 mile round trip to go listen to some scruffy new age travellers.

And......
Tool on 13th June
<3 a certain someone on these here boards
Tool on the 13th of June. Not a lot of gigs I go to this year will matter much other than that.
I did my best to email everyone who'd posted in the Tool threads lately, sorry I missed you out Sic.
Basically I just didn't want the link getting posted all over the net before Tool fans had a chance to get hold of them. AFAIK they'll go on general release tomorrow or Thursday.
