Travis STAR wrote: Usually go Manchester & Liverpool by train...only thing is last trains are usually gone by the time you'd get out of a gig so it's hard organising it all! For NIN getting the train and booking a hotel!
Ok, you been to Wolves before? If you want any advice on what hotels and stuff, I can help, I went to school there. |

One or two Brian Houston gigs in Belfast, and maybe the Connect Festival. Don't really know what else is on in Belfast this summer! |

Athlete in July. Then it all goes quiet for a while.
I'd love to see Jason Mraz- lucky Esteban! I've so not got my shit together to organise a ticket for that one. Stupid. |

I ended up going on ebay and spending a little more than face value to get them, but hey, he's that good. |

Ah you underestimate my powers of perception! ;)
They were awesome, another band who sound even better live than on the albums. ...and I'd never noticed how much Fran and James Mercer sound alike at times with their singing styles until then.

Bright Eyes in June.
Then maybe some smaller songwriter-gigs (only Germans) at a festival (for free).
Damien Rice in July in Stuttgart and (if all goes well) in October in London (we have great tickets, but it's at Wembley ... Too big for small people like me ;) )
And I'm very tempted to go to the Decemberists-gig in September. It's 19 Euro... money, if only I HAD some more to spend for concert-tickets ;)

The vocal crack thing yeah. His voice is a bit higher than Fran's. I'd love to see them live but they always tour/do one off dates at really inappropriate times.
Oh yes, also seeing Dogs. Again. Boring life. |
