Next up - Elvis Costello and Friends (his friends include Roseanne Cash and Charlie Sexton), December 2, Moody Theater at ACL Live!

This may be the final concert of 2022 unless something else exciting comes along. Maybe Experience Hendrix on December 4? (Billy Cox, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Los Lobos’ David Hidalgo and Cesar Rosas, Zakk Wylde, Dweezil Zappa, Eric Johnson, Doyle Bramhall II and Chris Layton.)

Mrs. J From A passes (she saw the real thing, after all) but I can't resist.

Well this is exciting...but will be exceedingly difficult to obtain tickets for, I'm sure

There was a time when I would have booked it on the spot (not Springsteen, I'm not a fan) but as a soon-to-be pensioner I have to be a bit more choosy on who I spend my pennies on... smaller artists at smaller venues from now on!

He is rather amazing live though. I've cried every time I've seen him  Roll Eyes

Dave Cousins is playing a solo charity gig at the George IV in Chiswick on the 21st.  It will be his only gig for the foreseeable future.  Dave has had some serious health issues in recent months, but he is on the mend and a new Strawbs album is expected in 2023.

Thea Gilmore at The Acapela in Pentyrch next Sunday (13th Nov) and Squeeze at St David's Hall, Cardiff the following Friday (18th). Two very different evenings in store with one thing in common - great songs, with memorable lyrics.

Fontaines D.C. this evening. Don't know a vast amount about them but I've enjoyed what I've heard so hopefully, it'll be a decent night.

Slightly annoyingly, though, it's at a venue that I really don't like at all. Should have checked more closely when I bought the tickets, which, weirdly enough, was from a different venue's website.

Snap! Sort of. Saw Squeeze last week at Oxford (Don't forget food donation!) and am seeing Thea Gilmore in Swindon on the 19th. Would've liked to see her in Oxford at the Holywell Music Rooms (superb venue, perfect for her) but that gig clashes with Bellowhead.

Three gigs in a month! Feels positively pre-covidian.

Cheers

Looking forward to that new album.  Settlement was the best one in a while.
