The Aggies at The Acapela Studios, Pentyrch near Cardiff on Wednesday (4th Dec) and Steeleye at Abergavenny on Friday 6th.
Are you going for pizza first?

Probably not, as I'm going straight from work and picking up my daughter on the way. We'll probably be there just in time for the start.

Ian McNabb and Cold Shoulder at The Arts Club, Liverpool on Saturday. A bit of a rarity these days to see Ian in solo mode with a band (as opposed to when he goes out as The Icicle Works), I think it must be five or six years since he last toured with Cold Shoulder. He's promising a two hour show drawing from the three albums they've done together, so this will be the first time to hear a lot of the wonderful Our Future in Space album in full-band mode. Should have been part of a slightly larger number of shows but most were pulled after a fall out with the promoter, so Liverpool is all that remains sadly. Make sure we take the ear plugs for this one, it's going to be loud. Cheesy

Love the Arts Club and love the CS albums.  It should be heaving.  I hope Ian behaves himself.  Enjoy  Smiley

Will do, really looking forward to this one, just a shame the rest of the tour was pulled as we had tickets for Manchester as well. Haven't been to the Arts Club before, the last time in the building was to see Eighteenth Day of May in 2006 when it was The Barfly.

The circumstances weren't great but the cancellation of the rest of the tour may have been a blessing in disguise as Ian subsequently went down with a nasty bout of, I think, bronchitis which he has only recently recovered from. Have a great night. I have seen Ian half a dozen times in the last two or three years, with and without a band and he has been on top form every time. He seems to have got passed the drunken falling about on stage phase from a few years back.

St Agnes Fountain tonight at Acapela in Pentyrch near Cardiff, my first time seeing them.

I note Liverpool are playing Everton at 6.30 and the show starts at 8 so Mr Hughes may or may not be a bit agitated!

I’m seeing them for the first time too next Wednesday 11 December at Maldon Town Hall in Essex so will be interested in what you think

He sold out before I realized he was playing, in my neck of the woods. Curses!

Kick off is 2015. Hope you have a lovely evening, and Mr Hughes too, at least until he hears the final score...  Wink

Last show of 2019:

Cher, at the AT&T Center in lovely San Antonio, Texas, December 17!

She's been on my bucket list since she blanketed my television in the 1970s, first with Sonny Bono and later with Gregory Allman. She cancelled a scheduled appearance in Austin a couple of years ago, and I feared the opportunity had passed. After a lengthy period of recuperation, she has come roaring back!  I anticipate a little "I Got You, Babe," perhaps "The Beat Goes On," maybe the politically incorrect "Gypsys, Tramps and Thieves," a snippet of "If I Could Turn Back Time," some autotuned "Believe," and a whole lotta ABBA.

Albion Christmas Band at the Atkinson in Southport a week from tonight. Looking forward to it, even though it means missing the 'Strictly' final! We'll have to remain incommunicado on Sunday and watch the recording.

There was an amusing little interview with Jah Wobble on Talksport (2.30 pm, will be available on their playback).  Partly about footie, of course (he is a Spud), but there were some interesting musical nuggets as well.  There is a tour in the offing, starting at The Cavern.

Jah  Wobble & The Invaders of the Heart are playing Colchester Arts Centre on 25 January but this is already sold out so I’ve missed out on that one  Embarrassed but it’s the day before Frank Turner plays an acoustic gig in aid of the Nick Alexander Memorial Trust. He was heavily involved with the Arts Centre but lost his life at the Bataclan terrorist attack in Paris. The date of Frank’s gig would’ve been Nick’s 40th birthday RIP

Ralph McTell at the Royal Festival Hall tomorrow. With the Fairport rhythm section on duty according to info on Facebook. There still appear to be a number of tickets available.

Finally going to see Steve Harley at the Robin on Friday, which will close the year gig wise.
It was one New Year's resolution to do at least one gig a month, but, due to the cancellation of Lene Lovitch in March, and health problems, that went a bit south at Cropredy into October, causing me to miss a few...including Jude's second gig in London Sad ( I saw the first one though  Smiley ) However, as I did four in April, I managed, on average....so I count that as a win.
I already have one gig a month lined up for most of next year, Ticket Buying and Health Gods willing, I will have a good one.
