I actually prefer music myself 
I know he divides opinion.

Certainly did. I’ve seen Nik many times playing both solo and in his groups. This gig was a good mix of material from their current album as well as variations of previous tracks. Great to watch the interplay between the musicians up close. They used their own sound engineer and the quality was exceptional, even for Ronnie’s.

I saw them at Brixton Academy about 30 years ago.
It was one of the more boring gigs I’ve ever seen.
Zero emotional connection for me that night.
Mine is made by hornet.
It has a kind of knicker elastic on one side that helps to stop it sliding around.
Got to laugh. Over on another thread posters are buying big retirement systems and pretending they can avoid the inevitable consequences of ageing and iver here…

Next February…bit of an impulse buy:
Mussorgsky Boris Godunov at Royal Opera House, Covent Garden.
The very first opera I was impressed by as a teenager, superceded much later in life by the game changer that was Puccini’s Turandot.
I wonder what I’ll think?
Guess I should play it, after some 55-57 odd years!

Malvern Theatre, July. Jools Holland. Always good fun.
Birmingham Symphony Hall, May. Christopher Cross + Chris Difford.
Always wanted to see CC. Missed him about a year ago when he toured with Toto.
Self Esteem in the Museum Gardens in York in July- lovely place, intrigued to see what type of show it is.
Jason Isbell and the 400 unit in Gateshead in June - The Glasshouse. A bit of a distance to travel but looks like a fascinating venue.
Couple of gigs booked, Andy fairweather low and the low riders in February, and Graham Gouldman in October, both at the Apex , Bury st Edmunds.
Robert Plant with Saving Grace at Manchester Apollo a week on Monday.
