The time has come to talk about 2020, as posts in the 2019 thread have already suggested…
Kicking things off then - I am due to take the junior troops to see The 1975 at the O2 in London in February. (Always liked their guitar sounds, can’t quite love the vocals but still trying…)
Al Stewart with “The Empty Pockets” in Glasgow a week or two ago, and probably my last concert this year - Rhiannon Giddens (Usher Hall, Edinburgh) - December 01.
Lined up for next year (so far) -
Tommy Emmanuel (City Halls, Glasgow) - January 21;
The Milk Carton Kids (Royal Concert Hall, Glasgow) - January 27;
Beth Hart (Royal Concert Hall, Glasgow) - February 14;
John Prine (Usher Hall, Edinburgh) - February 23;
a little band in Glasgow (SSE Hydro) on 23rd March that no one will have heard of - The Who;
and finally (and certainly not least);
Nick Mason’s Saucerful of Secrets (Usher Hall, Edinburgh) - May 16
Thanks for that Andy. Great video. Really looking forward to this gig. I’ve never seen the original Dr. Feelgood or Wilko live before although I have a few records.
I did see a latter day version of Dr. Feelgood Who were pretty poor to be honest.
Back in the early ‘80s Wilko used to play the sadly long gone Torrington in Finchley, in the back room of the pub, low ceiling above the stage. Every time I saw him there he’d do one of his jumps, hit his head on the ceiling and look surprised as if it hadn’t happened before.
I’m going on the Cruise to the Edge as a career celebration, pre retirement thing. I’ve always wanted to go on a cruise and it has a lot of bands that I would travel to see live. It’s quite exciting and a once in a lifetime opportunity for me.
