Just got tickets for Deep Purple at Leeds First Direct Arena in November. last saw them at NEC in 1993 with Blackmore. It’s funny how time flies, I thought they were past their best then and now 31 years later I’m seeing them again. Looking forward to seeing the new guitarist Simon Mcbride, seen some clips on you tube and he looks the real deal to me.

Richard Thompson in York on 27th May. Touring with full band. I’ve seen him in concert many times, more recently as a trio or solo. So I think this is the first time in over 15 years he will have a full band on stage in the UK. He’s never disappointed.
I saw him first in the Ulster Hall Belfast with bassist Danny Thompson. Utterly blew me away.
And just booked to see the Oysterband at Leeds City Varieties in Nov. This is their long farewell tour as they retire from touring.
Special memories seeing them there a few years ago, with the band coming off the stage into the audience to sing an acoustic encore, with audience singing along.

On my side of the pond, will finally get to see Air in Montreal, Canada on Oct. 13th as part of their North American tour. Been a longtime fan. The French duo is bringing its 1998 classic, Moon Safari to life onstage.

Snow Dog and I are more than a bit keen on Editors and have seen them three times in the last six months or so.
I was considering going to Brixton to see them on 2nd May but was dallying as I’ve recently moved north and travelling would be harder. Decided to bite the bullet and buy the ticket this morning. Logged on to the site and, surprisingly, two shows were listed. They’ve just added a warm up show in Sheffield, 30 mins away from home. It was obviously fate!
In a related dilema, I have discovered one of the band lives in our village - do you think we should knock on his door and ask for a lift to the gig?

Looks like the Dan have pulled out and pretty much conclusive proof over on the Hoffman site that Don Henley has been mining vocals at live shows.
Re Henley. Check my post on the Youtube thread.
The follow-up video is pretty damning as well.

Yes it is pretty damning stuff.
I see despite the Dan pulling out of the UK tour - ticketmaster are not giving a refund.
Breadheads…

I did hear that Michael McDonald was back doing some stuff with them. But in the current form they are all new members.
It is shocking the price of tickets to hear the Eagles miming and a covers band for support.
