I've got a solo album of his with a great track on it - There's no way out of here

Brilliant. Might dig it out tonight.

He should never have gone to Napoli, he was a great in the low brick position.

Careful with that axe Eugene.

Yep managed to get tickets, if you thought that the Albion ticket site was bad, Ticketmaster is a hundred times worse, and made the whole process far more stressful than it should have been

Managed to bag tickets for Saturday. Anyone have any tips where to park, it’s been years since I have driven to the city centre!

Luckily, a mate of mine went through (what he described as ) 'absolute carnage', and managed to get tix for us, for the Friday night.
I'm going in blind on this one, as haven't heard the new album at all.

This was interesting as the site went live 20 minutes prior to the sale and gave a countdown. It also said if you open multiple windows or devices you may be flung out of the queue. Went in at waiting position 524 and was in the sale room within a couple of minutes. Chose my seats, front row, and was rejected as the tickets were no longer available, rinse and repeat 6 times. Eventually picked one average seat, mid row and got it. Disappointed my friend though. Seathub have a market at up to £1000 a piece.

 

[Binney on acid]

Saw him last time he played the centre. He co-writes with his wife these days. Granted he's a great guitarist, but some of the material is of questionable quality. I wouldn't go if I was given a ticket, but I hope that you all have a fantastic evening.

The other issue, was the code required for these two gigs was released at noon, giving three hours for it to be shared (unless everyone had a unique code).

You would think that having pre-ordered the album those with tickets would be fans and use the tickets themselves, however these days with resale sites, lots of people see themselves as legal touts, and look to grab as much money as possible.

It was surprisingly good. imo.

Wife’s lyrics are so twee in comparison to Waters imo

As an aside here’s the full song of the snippet on here from his recent gig with his daughter. Love it

FOS was great, Sorrow, too....the one which flopped (for me...again!) was GGITS. It was rubbish in Pompeii and rubbish last night. He's trying to change it, in some way, but it simply doesn't work.
That said, I very much enjoyed the show as a whole and his voice was pretty damned good.
