Aquarian-Time

Gotta agree, he knew what he was doing, they were also selling jack shit records before dig and when i last saw them they sold out the ritz in Manchester. He is a loose cannon thats for sure and believes he is some kind of messiah but he also had a plan and the plan (eventually) worked. The recent s...

Mate, I would love to meet up but to leave the wife and kids for 3-4 days I need a better line up to justify to myself. Deerhunter aside, there isnt much that grabs me unfortunately. The line ups at Green man and latitude seem a bit more up my street to be honest. Liverpool Psych Fest would be the o...

Just snaffled one of these from Discogs. I await delivery with much excitement

Aquarian-Time

Kicks off about 6pm on the Friday night and from last years experience saturday will be approx 2pm till, well very late 3am perhaps !!

Aquarian-Time

BRMC I pretty much agree with the comments on their new album. Although I do like the cover of The call song, the last track though is way to obvious/stadium style. Live the songs stand up well, the rockers do kick ass and they opened with fire walker which worked well. That said, Im wondering what ...

Aquarian-Time

I'm all over this gig, oh yes indeed. Been waiting for a gig here that I really fancied and hey presto.

Aquarian-Time

Couple more gigs to catch up on. Yo La Tengo at Manchester Ritz, as always, quite simply fantastic, a little more laid back than they used, but they still know how to rock out. Set was split into acoustic/electric and there was great mix of tracks covering most areas of there career. As always Autum...

Aquarian-Time

This was awesome last year and this year promises to be even better. Now spread over two days, the first announcement of bands has arrived and we have Fuzz (Ty Segalls new pysch band), Carlton Melton, Clinic, Psychic Ills to name but a few, I thoroughly reccomend this and may I suggest a potential m...

Aquarian-Time

Security was mega tight on people recording material last night, photos were ok, but if you were spotted in record mode you had one chance and then you were out. Venue was ok typical overcrowded Academy venue, crap beer and over zealous stewarding. Which taper sites should I be lookin at for these c...

Aquarian-Time

I braved the Baltic condions and headed towards Birmingham for the only my second Black Crowes live experience. Ticlet prices as has been mentioned were steep, merch was very expensive so didnt bother, which was a shame as there was a nice tour poster on offer, but not at Â£25 thanks. They came on a...

[ low- 'the invisible way' (i like this, but it's not as good as 'c'mon.' kind of unfair to compare, though, as 'c'mon' is the best record they'd released in about 10 years. it's kind of like 'secret name' measured against 'things we lost in the fire.') I agree with Shallobi re-Low album, its good t...

My Man cave

Aquarian-Time

I shall be at Birmingham, plus he has announced Liverpool later in the year, so mau have some of that as well. Set list is decent, nice and varied, and plenty of new tunes, which suits me as the new album is decent

Aquarian-Time

I too have a "man cave", or as my 3 yerar old calls it Daddys House, or my mates call it The Den. May i suggest we take some snaps of our storage/hideaways/nonfemaleinclusionzones ?? I would be interested to see other peoples. I did post pics of them on my twitter page a month or so ago @d...

Aquarian-Time

I was at the Apollo on Sunday for MBV and it was awesome, easily one of my top ten gigs of all time. Not as loud as the last time I saw them but loud enough and the crowd lapped it up. Honeypower was a highlight for me and Only Shallow went down a storm. Couldnt hear much from Kev's vox, but Belinda...

Losing track on whats coming up here, so whilst repeating myself, writing it down at least meands I might remeber whats coming up !! March (all in manchester) Yo La Tengo, BRMC, EELS, MBV plus Black Crowes in Birmingham April Hookworms(Manchester), Low (Manchester), Anrthroproph(Chester) and White H...

Aquarian-Time

Afraid not. I only got there 15 mins before the main act. My mate watched them and said, ideal if you want something challenging, maybe a little intoxicated, or off your head, not however condusive to a Monday night !

Aquarian-Time

I saw Sigur Ros on Monday @ The Apollo in Manchester. Wow,what a show a great set list with three new tunes, two of which were awesome. Finally got to witness Sfevn-G-Englar live as well. It may of been Monday and not ideal for a gig, but that was one hell of a show. Crowd went balliistic and a stan...

Aquarian-Time

Thursday-Exit Calm @ The Deaf Institute(Manchester) Now i like this band, having seen them many times, although my reservations about the singers ability to hit the notes on a consistent basis remain. The gig was pretty full and, it was ok. The best songs were the four the played off the first album...

Aquarian-Time

Bit harsh on BBC6 music, Mark Riley and Gideon Coe are decent enough, obvioulsy not going to break too many rules buts till a decent listen, cant comment on the daytime offerings as I never listen

Aquarian-Time

Great news moop, love Six By Seven. I also like Twelve (Chris sideproject) all very krautrock but damn fine nontheless, just ordered the new Twelve album

Aquarian-Time

Without a doubt, they are playing Green man Festival, so I fully expect more dates

Aquarian-Time

Again after some tempting descriptions picked up the Melomania LP off Ebay for a fiver. Listened to it yesterday and its quite superb. Vocals are neither here nor there but the guitars are sublime

Aquarian-Time

Based upon nothing more than the descriptions here, I have picked up Entrance High Rise LP for Â£5 inc P&P.

En route as we speak, will report back

Aquarian-Time

Only one listen but it ticks all the boxes. If ever a band name summed them up, then Endless Boogie is just the band. Couple of more chilled numbers that brood and lope about, which i really enjoyed plus the usual boogie woogie guitar freak outs and he even sings a bit more on this album. Reccomende...

Aquarian-Time

Awsome night last night, my humble apologies to Matt for being a bit tipsy on my arrival !! Young Husband were decent, Zero set (i think they called themselves) effectively the Early years reworking some of their tunes in semi improvised style. Certainly worked for me and it sounded very Dano Suzuki...

Calexico-Manchester Ritz Probably not everyones cup of tea on this forum, but Im a big fan of Howe Gelb/Giant Sand stuff which obviously led me to these guys some years ago. You know what you are gonna get with Calexico, tight as a ducks ass, an amazing drummer, introspective desert blues interspers...

Aquarian-Time

I also jump to defend Runcies honour. Fleetwood Mac/Rumours/Tusk all 3 are great albums. Tusk gets better with every passing year. I quite like the early blues stuff as well, the early seventies pre Buckingham/Nicks I aint keen on though. Gold Dust Woman is one of my top ten songs of all time. Just ...

Aquarian-Time

Calexico tomorrow (Saturday), Hookworms/Early Years in London on Thursday for the Pysch for sore eyes release party (just received mine yesterday and it looks awesome. After that I have Exit Calm, Clinic(with Mugstar supporting), Yo la tengo, BRMC and Black Crowes. Maybe Eeels as well ! Also Anthrop...

Aquarian-Time

Date just added at The Compass in Chester, April 12th. Rather annoyingly the same night at White Hills in Manchester.
Best do White Hills in Liverpool the night before then !!
My gig diary is becoming very busy !!

Check out Green man festival as well, some great announcements thus far

Aquarian-Time

They have played Forget The Swan most nights, but it seems Gargoyle took its place Friday. Yeah I'm just not as sold on the band as a whole, but i like them if that makes any sense ? I think in my more advancing years I have been much more open to music that I used to disregard without giving it a f...

I seem to have missed out on the 10" as well, ordered off Amazon (throgh Sister Ray I think) and then had my amount reimbursed as they no longer had the item

Dinosaur Jr @ The Ritz, Manchester. Im relatively new to Jr, although having been aware of them and had the odd album, I thought what the hell lets give it a roll. Decent gig, ram packed, I watched from balcony, I though J was (as Im told he always is) a bit quiet vocally and his guitar playing whil...

Aquarian-Time

Forgive me if I missed it (its early, Monday morning blues), whats the title of the book you refer to?, sounds fantastic and certainly something I would like to get on my ever expanding "to read pile". Some great points made there as well, again its too early for me to give my take just ye...

Aquarian-Time

This is basically Loveless 2 (or close enough anuway). And that will do for me, all the textures, sounds, vocals are as one would expect from Mr Shields, dont think it justified taking quite this long, but regardless, its a belter of an album on first listen

Aquarian-Time

Saturday 27th april to be exact

Aquarian-Time

At the Moon duo gig @ wrexham Central Station, there was a flier up for a date there, it was a saturday I think, Feb or March, will have a scan now

Aquarian-Time

Sod it, ticket now booked for Birnmingham, day after the BRMC gig

Aquarian-Time

Been giving Deerhunter-Cryptograms a good run through as well. A lot spacier than I remember. Octet is a great tune.
This will get another spin pretty soon as it sounds really fresh to these ears and not as claustrophobic as I remember.

Aquarian-Time

I'm put off by the price. When i saw them at Manchester 2011 I think, they promised a mega long set, played for just over an hour and a half with a set that comprised of just 13 songs. What they played was good, but I expected much more. Another issue is BRMC are playing the Ritz on the same night, ...

Ty Segall tonight @ Deaf Institute, Manchester. Support from some band

called The hookworms. What a bill that is, cant wait.

Next Thursday off to the sleepy town of Wrexham for the quite splendid Moon Duo, hoping they play lots of new stuff, album is outstanding.

Aquarian-Time

I was toying with the idea of a long away day to watch this leg of the tour, but that set list has put me right off. Too late and Freedom !!. Way too SHSL heavy, 5-6 off that album would be fine. Gonna give this a swerve me thinks, save my pennies for TY Segall's merch stand ! Great reports though, ...

New tune alltogether, it was slow build up and then rocked out a bit at the end. on their set list they just called it Intro. I do like Stivey Pond so was bit gutted they didnt play it

Aquarian-Time

Well as predicted, not many in, although the crowd was appreciative of the band who, as ever, gave it everything. Crowd peaked at 60 max. 100 in there would be ideal, like angelsighs quite correctly states, it does make all the difference. Spoke to Evan, one of the guitarists before the show and he ...
