Red-Robbo Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 I thought this thread was going to be about Paolo Di Canio.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SARJ Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 I thought this thread was going to be about Paolo Di Canio.... What a gig that would be, 'One Step Beyond' followed by Paolo emerging in his Lazio kit throwing facist slautes to the crowd ha ha ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
City Rocker Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Tomorrow night then, the gig, anyone going?Apparently the band go onstage at the ungodly hour of 8.15, ending at 9.45, with after party at the Sportsman. Dress code is Fred Perry/Harringtons, but City colours would be more than acceptable as there's sure to be a few badly dressed sags in attendance.

I will be there in Fred Perry (red and white, obviously) and obligatory Harrington. Just hoping my 48 year old legs can survive a good old skank nowadays!9-45, mad dash to the car and in the boozer by 10-15, that's the plan (if I can still walk)!

City Rocker Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Good man. Don't be thinking you'll be able to park anywhere near the ground though. I live just around the corner, and what with the Blue Few playing at home (they regularly bring several dozen cars, not to mention caravans, into the area on match day), parking could be difficult tomorrow. Will be a great gig though, no doubt. The adrenalin will carry you through. My legs have just turned 50! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderup Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 What a blinding night! My head and legs aren't half feeling it today though.Message to self, it's not 1982 anymore and I'm not 15 either. Madness can't half put on a show, even at their age!

54-46 Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 I went with Mrs 54-46 and I wasn't massively impressed tbhSeemed a pretty quiet sound system - not sure if that's anything to do with noise regs due to being in a residential area or I could be getting deaf in my old ageNot a patch on a gig by The Specials for me, although that was in a small inside venue with only a few hundred crowd, not really a fan of huge outdoor ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
City Rocker Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 Thought it was a great performance, good set list and excellent banter. The sound wasn't too good, as you say, but pretty standard for an outdoor show. Guitar way too low in the mix from where I was standing. You can't beat an intimate gig in a small room. And it doesn't get much better than the Specials live either, saw them many times all over the country. But with Nevil and Roddy both having left (and Jerry Dammers of course), I guess that's game over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderup Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 I can only assume the volume was down to regs but I can't say I noticed it being particularly quiet.Totally agree about smaller venues too. Saw the beat at the Fleece and it was excellent until Ranking Rogers son cocked up mirror in the bathroom by rapping! Gonna stick to smaller gigs now but couldn't miss the nutty boys.
