Well hello. I know I haven't been on here in ages. I spent most of last couple of weeks fuming at the indignity of not being able to get a ticket for Bruce Springsteen's O2 show. It looks like i'll be searching the internet fan sites for a while yet. Failing that there's the option of a tout. And it is close to Xmas so I guess that could be my present. But having said that fuck you to the touts who sold two tickets for £670 on ebay. Scum bags, I hope that you die, but not before you sell me one at below face value, two minutes before the band are onstage and you start to panic because you need to sell the tickets.
Otherwise, I should have some news about the third band-night that I'm organising. I'll post that here tomorrow.
Oh yes, I also went to see the Hold Steady at the Electric Ballroom. Read what I thought of the band when I first saw them a few months ago. My latitude review is also up. And I've written a review of the new Bruce album which leaked to me on Friday.
What have I got coming up? An unsigned concert at the Bull & Gate tomorrow, Eric Andersen on Saturday (which will be brilliant), then Manu Chao in October at Brixton Academy, finally for the month my gig night at the Windmill on Friday October 5th. Looking at November, I've got tickets for Wilco...again. In December I should be seeing Lucero and Okkervil River.

I couldnt find ticks for the springsteen gig here myself... fuck, from 1985, i never missed a springsteen concert in my country, will this be the first time? I think he should play a couple of more shows, tho, with the requests he have... the NJ bastard... when are the wilco in london?
how come you forgot to quote the two best songs on Springsteen new album? and hey, you dont have problems in the UK, writing about an album before his release? god, I hate you
Wilco are in London on November 5th. I'm no professional journalist so I can write about what I want when I want.
It's great.
