Yep some good ones forthcoming Dandy Warhol’s in Manchester Robyn Hitchcock in Huddersfield looks good matinee show Nicole Atkins in Chester Micheal Chapman in Chester White Denim in Manchester Kristin Hersh either Manchester or Liverpool Steve Gunn in Manchester Kraftwerk at Jodrill Bank Bob Mould ...

Aquarian-Time

I can’t disagree with The David Baker stance as I wasn’t there. I got into the Rev just before they released Deserters Songs and was lucky to see them twice on two trips they made over here with Flaming Lips as support. I was hooked and despite diminishing returns on more recent albums, their live s...

TFC at Manchester next Mon, Tue and Wednesday after that Mogwai and Twilight sad in Luverpool Putting on Sunstack Jones at salty Dog in Northwich on Nov 16th for those that like Real Estate, The La's, Hanging Stars, The Byrds, The Feelies etc etc you get the vibe Also tickets for Mercury Rev, Ride A...

Aquarian-Time

Yeah have tickets for all 3 in Manchester, not convinced i will make the 3rd one, but deffo not missing the first two. Looking forward to it

Aquarian-Time

We rehearse at Si Jones place sometimes (as well as place in Macclesfield which is great), he never ever mentions the Verve, he talks about Nick sometimes(they are supposedly getting together with Pete to do something, don't hold your breadth though), doesn't get drawn into slanging matches and it g...

Have just ordered the REM at the BBC one 8cd/dvd. Looks great. Couldn't resist Have been digging a bit deeper into the Pink Floyd early Years box from 18 months or so ago, some real gems on there. My interest piqued after a fantastic nick mason's SOS gig in Manchester recently, could not recommend t...

Mark lanegan @ Duke Garwood At RNCFM, Manchester New album hadn't grabbed me so was little concerned when i learnt the set was split into 2 halves, 1st album and then second album straight through. I need not have been so worried, as the finest voice in Rock and in tandem with of the most accomplish...

Aquarian-Time

Yeah, Sam the bass player is a good pal of mine and through him I know Rich reasonably well now. (They are in the Lightshines as well, although has taken a back seat for now)
Hoping to entice them North early next year to play for me at the Salty Dog in Northwich

Aquarian-Time

Yeah saw Matt Hollywood in London at the splendid Shacklewell Arms. Main draw for me was Asteroid#4 whom I had seen in Manchester the Saturday previous. Nice mix in both their gigs, mainly drawing from last 3 albums. Great psych cosmic desert vibes. They are a great bunch and they were super tight i...

Wooden ships Manchester this Saturday,also at the Astral Elevator weekend psych thing although probably swerve the Sunday finishes far too late for a school night Suede at Leeds Brudenell doing the new album plus a greatest hits type encore Mogwai in Liverpool Mark Lanegan and Duke Garwood in Manche...

Aquarian-Time

in a totally different weird life type place compared to a year ago, so was unsure what I would make of this

But some things you can just count on

Its awesome

Hurrah

Aquarian-Time

Yeah Mark Peters album is great, put him on at our local in march and it was great, played a couple of engineers songs instrumentally and reworked. Chatham Rise are great not got that yet New purchases include Oh Sees new one Teenage Fanclub re-issues thirteen, grand prix, songs from etc etc and how...

Aquarian-Time

Not feeling this at all, I hope I'm wrong

Aquarian-Time

Yeah Bardo Pond, quite outstanding Leeds Brudenell Fri 8th June Braved the M62 on a Friday at rush hour(s) and strapped myself in for nigh on 2 hours of sonic bliss. No support, so we got The Pond on at 9.05 and they were done for 10.50 ish. Mesmeric is the word I will use. The layers of volume they...

Aquarian-Time

Been a little quiet of late, had a couple of Mind Exodus gigs of my own Cat Called Dog and Bones Shake, plus a great set from Mark Peters (some of it was a lovely ear spltting MBV style of ambient, many on here will approve) at the Salty Dog in Northwich Also caught Goat Girl in Liverpool (remind of...

Aquarian-Time

Yeah Follakzoid lost a heap of fans last time I saw them. Coments I heard were,”they could do with learning another song” The guitarist (if thats what you call him) tried to make the whole thing about him, bizzare dancing, not actually playing much and twiddling with his guitar pedals, bass player l...

Aquarian-Time

Soon as i have it mate will drop you a text. No problem pal

Aquarian-Time

Ticket procured for Leeds

Aquarian-Time

They still had it at (FUI) Piccadilly Records and Vinyl Exchange, I can grab you a copy if you want mate?

Aquarian-Time

Yeah there are 2 Manchester Psych Fests. Astral Elevator are doing a weekend one 15/16 sept, which works well as wooden Shjips are playing Gorilla (5 mins walk away from venue) on the Sat night. Holy Wave, The Janitors among many others. I booked one of the bands for my Mind exodus nights last week,...

Aquarian-Time

Yep, I was logging on every day to see when it was back up and running, many thanks for doing so, hugely appreciated I know by many RSD was a decent this year, the usual sat outside Picc Records at 2.45 am !! Neil Young, Spectrum, Liminanas, Goat, Popul Vuh, Spiritualized (yes its an excellent remas...

Aquarian-Time

I posted the set for the Salty Dog on www.setlist.fm, identical for Friday and Monday (they think anyway, I couldn't hear any differences) Finished both nights with When You're In, they normally play it when I see them, but I am normally pissed at this point and shouting loudly for it ! Really nice ...

Aquarian-Time

Carlton Melton @ Soup Kitchen, Manchester last Friday. Excellent support from Plank, who really seem to have found a new level, they were astonishing at times,blending so many styles into their standard instrumental set, I was found struggling to put a finger on who if anyone they reminded me of. Ca...

Aquarian-Time

New Calexico is really good. The last 2 or 3 have been more traditionally song based but this one has all sorts going on. Admittedly not the same as Hot Rail (played that today) but rewarding nonetheless. Road Head is the song that got me into Japanese Breakfast. Looking forward to seeing them live ...

Aquarian-Time

Listening to Dream Syndicate (bit late on these) at the moment Medicine show in particular is a belting album. Not got the first album yet, i believe thats the album to have (enjoyed what i have heard of the new album too) Hopefully catch them in UK if they come back. New Calexico album is quite spl...

Aquarian-Time

My Loveless copy arrived today, along with a tax bill

The latter was for last year and this year, so currently in little mood to listen to anything other than my own screams of anguish !!

Aquarian-Time

Currently really enjoying the new BRMC album. Easily their best for a good while.
Also liking The Acetone retrospective.

Aquarian-Time

Glad i have sold my ticket now (other than a good catch up with sunray of course)

Sunday look so unappealing, Saturday is OK, Friday not bad. Hills dropping out is the big one for me, ver strange as sunray says when Goat are playing

Hills and The Heads playing, that would be different

Aquarian-Time

I only latched onto The Rev when they first released Deserters Songs, would loved to have heard/seen some of the early incarnations chaos. That said Deserters Songs would work well in such intimate surroundings, a lovely record it has to be said. They have produced great moments on all subsequent re...

Aquarian-Time

Really liking what I have heard of Goat Girl, all 3 singles are blinding. They have a tour in Spring so either Liverpool or Manchester for me I reckon

Aquarian-Time

I will have a word with Tom as I will more than likely be at one of his Liverpool Gigs in the next month or two, he is usually good for an exclusive !

Aquarian-Time

Thought he may pull it this year. When I spoke to him just before the Festival in the summer he intimated he was running out of bands. I think a year off, you can pull in some regular acts but it also gives ample time for some new movers and shakers to crop up. I think it's a good call. We all agree...

Aquarian-Time

as Modlab rightly states, you can upgrade your existing Classic. I did that with a Company on the South Coast, doubled the memory pretty much and practically rebuilt the thing to boot

Aquarian-Time

The mini album is quite superb, very warm, hazy psych. Great on headphones This is being released on Sonic Cathedral in April on Vinyl, and I just so happen to be hosting this fine chap at The Salty Dog in Northwich on Saturday April 28th. Whats even better is the gig is FREE. If anyone wants to tra...

Aquarian-Time

I confess to having lost a bit of my musical listening mojo recently, in a very strange personal space at the minute, hopefully all will resolve itself swiftly and I will throwing my hat in the ring here with my fave stuff from 2017...stay tuned

Aquarian-Time

CF is playing correct. I was offered them on the Saturday of the Drone Rock records night but couldn't afford it really as Saturdays are busy anyway in the venue and the gigs on Saturday are as a rule free entry.
Not sure what other dates they have as yet, will keep my eyes peeled though

Aquarian-Time

I also hope to make this, will know nearer the time but signs are promising. They are also stopping by our humble little 70 capacity venue in Northwich, Cheshire 2 days later. Support coming from Stupid Cosmanaut plus Dots and Loops will be DJing. Tickets will be up on we got tickets later today. Ad...

Aquarian-Time

Didn't spot this thread....well I couldn't resist and bought a ticket on the day of the announcement.
Apparently they asked the Heads and they said no !
Line up is interesting and decent, could be a great weekend

Aquarian-Time

As Olan mentioned, also at the Liverpool Ride show. We were three from the front and it was pretty loud, but I know what Olan means as I have watched gigs about halfway back in that venue and it's no where near loud enough. Personally I love the album and the gig, definitely my current face band at ...

Aquarian-Time

So sorry to hear of your news mc. Wishing you positive vibes from the NW of England. Sounds a terrible ordeal for you, hopefully music will assist the healing process. Regarding your set up, Olan is the man for advice, that said take some pics when it's done and post em on here, be good to see how i...

Aquarian-Time

Woooooah they played Grasshopper in the encore last night !!!

Aquarian-Time

Lover the album still , but do agree that the production is a bit 'nice', lacks edge and raw power, which is a shame as the band have that in abundance on stage. New song is a bit dull, but hey they are enjoying and have a new lease of life it would seem. Looking forward to Liverpool, me and Gaz wil...

Aquarian-Time

Loads since my last post on here

Recently
New albums by the Horrors, White Manna, Proper Ornaments, Sundays& Cybele, Fatan Kenan, Mogwai (box set), Oh sees, Jack cooper, Domboshawa and Iron and Wine

Reissues from Popul Vuh (2 of em),The Verve (urban hymns), Mazzy Star (albums 2 and 3)

Aquarian-Time

Didn't see APTBS so cannot comment. Agree with Olan the line up was quite ordinary but its more of a social thing these days and great to catch up with some good people who I can happily called friends. Thanks always as ever to Olan for his hospitality. We are all of the opinion this festival may no...

Aquarian-Time

Thoroughly enjoyable Ryan Adams show at Manchester Apollo, sold out fairly handy as always. He has become a bit more 80's Rock, Springsteen esque over the last 2 tours, and I for one think it helps in these venues. Its more full on and the set lists have become a bit more static, but he really is a ...

Aquarian-Time

Jon, bring a copy to Psych Fest if you get time mate, would love a copy.

I'm busy compiling my second comp. If anyone wants a copy of the first one PM me and I will send you a 2cd listening treat

Aquarian-Time

Was tempted with this Olan but with Pysch fest forthcoming, the new improved me has domestic duties to attend to

Aquarian-Time

Hopefully Ryley Walker in Chester end of the month, before that Kikaguko Moyo in Salford (tiny venue) Hopefully also Minami Deutch in Manchester (in fact will grab tickets today). Later in the year Ride, BRMC, Ryan Adams, Dinosaur Jr and Slowdive, which is a non too shabby line up Quality over quant...

Got the Kraftwerk blu ray 3d box. Wow a visual feast with my (proper, not crappy gig giveaways) 3d specs on. The wee man and myself watched Autobahn album straight through last night and its a stunning audio visual treat. makes up for the side view and shit glasses at the gig (as good as the gig was...

Aquarian-Time

Real Estate @ The Ritz, Manchester This was pretty dull, I like the band, but the indie guitar picking, chilled vibe needs a really good sound and for once this venue didn't provide same. Lead singer's voice sounded very toured and the band seemed as though they were trying too hard to enjoy the nig...

Aquarian-Time

Bit late but I was at Ride @ Manchester Ritz. Without question in my top 5 gigs ever....it was that good. The sound (as usual in the ritz) was superb, perfect clarity, plus it was nice and loud. New songs were great (I love the album but live they really fly) It was an evening that just had everythi...

Aquarian-Time

Slowdive are playing 4 of a 9 (or is it 8) album set and Ride are playing 75% of the new album I think both albums are good, Ride in particular (other than the production which is a tad polished for my ears) has produced an album that is a) Not Tarantula b) not Carnival of Light c) definately Ride a...

Aquarian-Time

I really like it. Only one listen so far but it has a GBA feel to some of it and the Ride sound is definitely in evidence. Play Loud is my advice

Aquarian-Time

Thee Oh Sees (or Oh Sees as they are to now known) Manchester Academy Just a staggeringly good live outfit, compulsive viewing for 90 plus minutes (they never normally play that long) Venue sound is consistently good here (never used to be) and it was perfect to my ears, I was up close mind. The dou...

Aquarian-Time

Johnnyboy sounds awesome (my kind of beer as well)

My list of forthcoming events hasnt changed although I may be attending The Early Years/ Vanishing twin show at London Brewhouse early July, looks a good bill and the venue looks good also, so maybe worth a trip down

Aquarian-Time

I knew a fair bit of this after chatting to Tom last week (organiser for LPF), he confirmed Thee Oh Sees despite being super expensive, were booked but then they had a US tour booked so bailed out. He also confirmed he had tried to get Bardo Pond but they are a nightmare to tie down. Endless Boogie ...

Aquarian-Time

You are correct, the tour they played 7 or 8, it was 2 years after when they returned just to play a few shows (Albert hall Manchester), they played 2 or 3 (Let The Day begin and Rival being 2 of them)

Aquarian-Time

Follakzoid-Soup Kitchen(Manchester) last Thursday I think the consensus here is they have become a bit dull, 3rd time seeing them, easily the most bored I have been at a gig for a while. 3 songs, 1 hr and I was clock watching. Didnt' even stay for Beak who were late secret additions utilising the sh...

Anyhow forthcoming I have
Besnard Lakes (Liverpool), Kraftwerk (Manchester), Thee Oh sees (Manchester), Mark Lanegan (Manchester), Real estate (Manchester), Ride (Manchester)

A quiet and more selective gig going calender this year so far

Aquarian-Time

Bit harsh on BRMC although appreciate not everyone's cup of tea. live they are fearsome and continue to excite me (and my mate Gaz whom I think has attended every tour since the the 1st album with me ) The last album i will concede was a little dull, I think they probably sussed this out and didn't ...

Aquarian-Time

Ah yes the 1000 albums to listen to target for 2017. I'm on 280 so far. It's tough but rewarding. Relentless listening.
