[Music] The Live Music thread

Sonic Switch is a great name for the show. Had a listen half way through and enjoying the music as always. Keep up the good work!

The Ex are a Dutch band, similar to the Fall, they've been around nearly as long as well, their album last year

They're playing here in March on the same bill as Thurston Moore. I shall definitely be popping along for that.

Polica tonight and Grumbling Fur on Thursday. There is about 4 inches of snow outside my window as well.

The Primavera line up is out of this world good.

As always its the smaller bands that are more of an attraction than the headliners. Great selection it is too.

Though as headliners go I'll take Arcade Fire, Pixies & Nine Inch Nails.

A lot more exciting electronica on there than I bargained for.

In other news Outkast were announced for Bestival yesterday. I can't go this year due to a wedding so I'm secretly hoping the bill is awful.

Can't make it.

When I cant get to see a band I want to see I often secretly hope the reviews will be awful. How selfish is that!

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Just bought my The War on Drugs tickets.

I'm not a massive fan but I'll be at Metronomy tonight.

Enjoy it- it was well and truly sold out by the time I saw it was on. Will be a great venue to catch them too.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Can't make it.

Absolutely this. Sometimes I wish I'd never had children.

Who wants to buy a ticket for Cate Le Bon, now that they've arranged the Albion v Hull game for that same evening?

Normal behaviour. It's like hoping that Albion win 1-0 with a first minute penalty when you can't go.

Is it usual to fall in love with the Metronomy drummer by the 3rd song?

Dunno. What does he look like? Is he Aquarius, or Taurus, like me?

Are they still playing with the lights attached to their chests?

I was cool enough to pick up Metronomy around the time of Pip Paine, enjoyed their second album, and then completely went off them by the time they started doing LYRIC based songs. I would ask Google, but NSC is so much more informed; are they good again?
