    Looking good Yvi :D:D I do agree that it's not just about the gig it's about the whole pre-amble
    My future gigs at the minute -

    29th October - Seth Lakeman (Truro)
    13th November - Bobbys Helmet (a local band - Helston)
    20th November - The Levellers (Falmouth)
    24th November - Show of Hands (Truro)
    3rd December - Fistful of Mercy (London)
    11th December - Frank Turner (Liverpool)
    30th January - Band of Horses (Bristol)
    17th March - The Levellers (Birmingham)

    I need a Pearl Jam gig(s) in there!!! And I'd like to bulk out with some more other gigs...

    My sister is going to the Fistful of Mercy gig, does it sound radically different to normal Ben Harper stuff?

    How is everyone anyway, haven't been on here in a while. :thumbup:

    I only have one gig lined up so far, but a few I want to see, especially Sonic Youth on New Years Eve. The only one I am going to for sure is one of the National shows at Brixton.

    They are different in my opinion, and a friend who really likes BH doesn't like Fistful of Mercy. It is a different sound, the layering and the vocals.

    I went to a beer and cider festival last night, I had 2 pints of cider and 2 of weapons grade ginger ale...and feel a bit like I'd had 10 pints :? :?
    Currently I am v jealous of those at Bridge!!

    Not a fan of what I've heard of Fistful of Mercy, good to see Ben try out something a bit different, but reform the Innocent Criminals already! That's where the fun was live.

    That Sonic Youth gig on NYE is tempting, especially since Shellac are supporting.
    The secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits

    Hey G, how goes it hunny?

    FoM are different Ian, and defo an album you have to give a few listens to. I wasn't sure at first but then it seemed to click with me. I do like the Innocent Criminals stuff too though.

    Still loving that Dimtris :D How are you my friend?

    Well I have tidied, hoovered and am now having some homemade cake :mrgreen:

    Do you think there is any chance that the band will combine both nights at Bridge as a boot and sell them on the site in goods to raise money for the school?
