Cracking little punk gig in Watford featuring Chron Gen , Anti-Pasti , Infa Riot & The Defects next month.

I have seen all of them lately over the last few years. And the defects will blow all of them off stage Rebellion was tops as per normal It was great to see The Partisans

Bernie Torme is playing Keighley Octagon on 22nd October. Blast from the past but his latest couple of albums are excellent. https://youtu.be/m-TRl3fVyNY

Didn't know the Partisans were playing again . Off to see Slaughter & the dogs in Manchester next month .

I was at Jersey live at the weekend watching,The vaccines,cast,slaves,clean bandit,circa waves amongst others,the best band over the weekend for me though…The Stereo MC's.

They had the place rocking,well worth seeing .

Yeah they are still playing and well worth a look. Saw Slaughter last year at Rebellion and a couple of years before and they were really good. They should be really good at their home coming. The testies and killing joke coming up for me over the next couple of months.

The Staves at Leeds Beckett last week - the Mrs is very enamoured of this modern folk stuff, whereas I wasn't expecting a lot; as it turned out, they made a lovely noise and I very much enjoyed myself!

I listened to their CD & was disappointed. Went to see the wonderful Jasmine Kennedy at Brudenell Social Club last night. What a talent. She was supporting The Lost Poets but we had to leave before they came on.

Angelic Upstarts , Chron Gen , Geoffrey oi-cot at Brudenell Social Club next month

I got two tickets for the upcoming Stone Roses gigs last week - on a whim really, as I didn't log on to the site til half an hour after they went on sale and thought they'd all be gone. The Mrs is taking no 1 son - she was at Spike Island, so it will be a bit of nostalgia for her; not sure what he'll make of it, given that he spends his entire life listening to grime and hip-hop.

Are tickets really £70-80?

Saw the Counterfeit Stones in Rock City Ilkley on Friday. £21 for a cover band is extortionate, but they were good fun.

Yep - cost me 180 quid for two tickets, after the stealth tax of 'transaction charges' and all that jazz.

I guess if you pay £20 to watch the Wildcats it will seem a bargain........

True enough - being a Wakefield fan for the last god knows how many years has skewed my understanding of the concept of value for money!
