Music

I didn't find out about their farewell shows until they were both sold out, proper gutted

 

They're changing it soon so you're only allowed 4 listens of any one track or song if you're a free user...

 

Yeah, heard about that

 

I think there's still some left for the Laaandan gigs

 

Ah yes thats right, too far for me plus the Leeds gig is the one to be at! Farewell gig in their hometown, will be an amazing atmosphere.

Go for it!

 

Which venue in Leeds is it? I have contacts I could ask around.....failing that I can see if anyone about in Leeds is selling the tickets for you.

Just had a look and Crash still have some left for the Friday, if that's any good?

It's a class little record shop, my mate used to get his dubplates from there for DJing.

Also Jumbo has them, a place where I generally buy my tickets for gigs:

Hope my local knowledge of ticket vendors helps you see a band you like , also if anyone goes to Leeds Fest, they're well worth getting from those two as they rarely crash their websites and sell out later than the big companies (generally charge a smaller booking fee too).

 

BLUR

Nice one Gonna have to nip home for my bank card at lunch time then they shall be purchased

 

Radiohead.

That is all.

 

I'd never have guessed

 

I would have made a bigger list but I really can't be bothered haha

 

Their studio stuff is a pale imitation of seeing them live, definitely one of the last big "live" bands that there is today.

 

Why bother? The avatar says it all, I'm a bigger fan of their early stuff tbf. OK Computer was their masterpiece.

 

Agreed, awesome band live!

More of a Kid A fan myself

 

Most artists I like or liked I prefer their earlier stuff - generally because it's when they still gave a **** about how their music sounded and were trying to get signed/recognition (and more raw to boot) whereas now they're doing it either out of contract obligation, to make more moolah or their musical direction is heavily influenced having now been picked up by a major label.
Not always though, some artists do evolve into something even better or different.

Anyway, remembered this remix and it's perfect on a sunny day, definitely one of my all time faves - invokes memories of New Years a few years ago. It was probably one of the best nights out I've ever had - absolutely ****ed, best mates around me and girlfriend by my side ended up staying out until the next evening as went from the club to an afterclub to an afterparty to a club again (Club shut at 5, afterclub until 10 then afterparty round some random's until midday where we went to a club again there's a few in Leeds that reopen at 12 on a weekend or holiday), man I miss those times!

 

If you want something like Pendulum give either The Qemists or South Central a try. They both have that Dance Rock vibe, and both do it a hell of alot better than Pendulum in my opinion.

Also, if you want a decent rock band try British Sea Power!
