What gigs are you going to?

[mikegray]

The idea is not to turn this into an "I'm going to more than you" style thread but more a, "Hey, I'm going to the same gig as you!" thread, as the times I've bumped into forums people or had near misses have all been at gigs, thought it might be easier to know in advance that they're going to be there!

So anyone want to post their gig lists, or is this a dumb idea?

[Thomasd]

Not a bad idea at all...

August 14th London Astoria (I think)- Dio
September 2nd Hammersmith Apollo- Velvet Revolver
October 14th Ipswich Regent- Whitesnake (oh yes)
November 22nd Norwich UEA- Motorhead/Sepultura

[mikegray]

OK, then here's mine:

Nothing planned at the moment (had to miss both Patti Smith/Television and the Long Ryders due to lack of money ).

I'm waiting for the Véronique Sanson dates to be properly confirmed before deciding which I shall go to as driving to somewhere like Rouen or Lille may prove cheaper than flights *and* a hotel in Paris.

Otherwise, fingers and bank balance crossed for PJ Harvey. I could do with a friend's band supporting really...

[clerk37]

Got no dates really but...

Velvet Revolver - Manchester 1st Sep
Slipknot/Slayer - Manchester MEN 6th October
HIM - Liverpool
Motorhead/Sepultura - Liverpool
Machine Head - Manchester

.....so far anyway....
