I did!

I'm a huge KOL fan but was slightly disappointed with the concert. I didn't manage to get in a great position as I was with the rest of my family, and there were far too many people who were there to see only 2 of their songs, which is fine, but it kind of spoilt the atmosphere. The sound isn't as good at outdoor venues like that either, compared to when I saw them in Sheffield in December where it was second to none.

Yeah that's true, particularly Pearl Jam and the Pumpkins. Obviously Weezer have metal influences as well, particularly audible in their earlier stuff. I guess when I think of metal, I usually think Maiden, Slayer, Metallica etc.

Pavement are genius

. I love that whole Gen-X slacker movement of the 90s. I just wish I was 10/12 years older, in order to have lived through it.

Yeah, I really hate that about KOL gigs. That and them not playing enough older stuff!

Yeah they still seem to be playing off the back of Only by the Night unfortunately, my least favourite album of theirs

I've been hearing good things about it. Has Mr Vernon done it again?
It'll have to be good to match their first one as well as to get me to take My Morning Jacket's circuital out of my CD player.

Seconded.

Enjoying the new records by the Antlers and Battles also.

City and Colour at Manchester in October Tickets bought.

Need. A. Time. Machine.

Same here.

I'm putting it out there.... The new Bon Iver record is a MASTERPIECE!

Also, listened to Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds "the Good Son" last night. A truly fantastic album, spelled with The Ship Song. Wow is that song a bit good.

Do you ever listen to the same song twice? Every third post on the music threads is you finding another forgotten album or song. Is your music collection on CD? You must have a storage facility the size of Area 51 to keep them all in?

I do a lot of listening to music, Spotify, going out to gigs, talking to fellow musicians about music. There is a wealth of quality out there.

Like BG, if I see someone post something I've not heard on here, I youtube, spotify or soundcloud them, have a listen.

I thought it was a great gig, Mona and White Lies were both decent and Zane Lowe was great. I was only with a few mates and we got near the front and where we was I must say most people round us knew most of the songs.

Whooo, new Skints album, new Jerimiah Ferrari single (on lovely vinyl too!) waiting for me today, as well as Random Hands second album.

A good day....

I do the same when people mention bands on here, you never know what you might come across. Though I do have a tendency to buy CD's without hearing anything of them just because the review makes them sound interesting. i.e. Johann Johannson's 'The Miners Tales'.

Ah, I bloody love the Skints - I'll have to get that album!

It sounds like they've been listening to a lot of late Marley.

This is going to be an album that's going to take some getting used to TBH. JF's new single is much the same too, if reggae is your thing then you'll like this.

If I can pad that thought out to 250 words (twice!) then I've cracked it....

There are times when music leaves you speachless and feeling emotional as hell

Coldplay doing Fix You at Glastonbury last night was one of those times

With Coldplay and U2 at Glastonbury, who was looking after Africa?

How did Beyonce do at Glastonbury? How has she coped with the mud?

Saw Morrissey at York last night, amazing. Going to Grimsby on tuesday too, I can't wait!

She's on tonight I think. Coldplay did look pretty darn good though, always preferred them live to studio.

Loving the Foo Fighters Wasting Light CD right now.

White Limo

Oh dear. I've seen so many of those statuses on Facebook in the last three days.

Whoever sees her over QOTSA is a fool.

Having done Glastonferret over the past two days may I recommend:

Newspaper Joe
B of the Bang
Rae Morris
Retrospective Soundtrack Players
Hey Sholay
Race Horses

but particularly, Richard Barry and The Chaps.
