Mad_Cyril Nothing wrong with small spaces and a decent sound system - most of the best nights I’ve been to have been in smaller venues with a tighter knit crowd
ScottBailey erik think there’s some subtle differences. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a Cortona jobbie
Along_the_Wire Christian Loffler was terrific in Brighton last night. The cheese from his last album sounded much beefier and better live - was honestly expecting to be on my toes after twenty minutes. The oddest mix of people at a gig I’ve ever seen.
Mad_Cyril Along_the_Wire The cheese from his last album sounded much beefier and better live Relieved!
Manski Beck at the RAH was immense. So good. What wasn’t so good was the support act. A lady whistling for 30 minutes! Very bizarre! Was half expecting/hoping she’d start playing a flute from her fanny. Sadly, didn’t happen! [
Manski Mad_Cyril 🤣 think that’s her whistling face! She (I’m sure she was a she) looked quite fit -when not whistling!
Wally Mad_Cyril Totally a ‘hard man’ facade Cyril, don’t fall for it. Grant was blubbing like a school girl as the soft melancholic chords of ‘A Life’ blared out.

CindyLouWho Grand Theft Audio gig at Rebellion in Manchester last night was really funny/quirky and quite the contrast from a lot of the gigs I’ve been to recently - well tbh totally off piste from EDM. However, enjoyed the variety nevertheless.
CindyLouWho The Alfos/Sprechen gig at Freight Island in Manchester today was fantastic! Music was perfect for what felt like being on holiday in the lush sunshine - starting with chill vibes in the afternoon and ramping up as the night went on. The daytime bit felt like the ultimate beer garden/EDM appreciation session in the lush sunshine Ibiza-style, which may sound a bit odd given the location but it worked. The dance floors (both outdoors and under cover) were also not overcrowded as half the people there by the end seemed to be celebrating them finished running the Manchester Marathon so guessing they were too knackered to dance lol. Really good event though. 4 lovely friendly DJs with varied styles of sets and a great venue for today’s weather especially. Plus, tickets were totally free of charge. Bonus! A great day indeed!
Mad_Cyril CindyLouWho Good stuff, nice to hear it. Op being delayed put paid to my chances of going, but was a lovely day yesterday so glad it worked out well. Also good to see local music scene doing well, Chris has been bubbling for a while.
CindyLouWho Millsy it was Ghost Assembly, Chris Massey (from Sprechen), Tom Sharkett and Sean Johnston (from A Love From Outer Space).
