Read that and thought of Mark Morrisson, return of the Mac...maybe you are too young to remember - I was really worried about your mental state...thankfully you are fine

ooh no not him. Didn't he go to prison for bashing someone round the head or something?

I'm not into men like that, although i did once have an awkward conversation with Hugh from the Housemartins.

I worked quite a few festivals this year and I've seen some great gigs in terrible conditions.

As an old fogey I'm going to have to say Jesus and Mary Chain at Connect Festival as gig of the year, spellbinding and the best they have played for 20 years.

Candi Payne also at Connect Festival was really good, great voice, songs and band

But the best music I saw was at a free party in Attercliffe in September. A bloke had got a TB303 and a TR606 drum machine and made the most wonderful squelchy Acid House on one of the few warm and sunny days of the year.

Cardiacs at the Boardwalk in November. Good to see that they're still insane.

the foo fighters were awsome at arena Dave grohl never stopped moving

 

but also enjoyed Thin Lizzy at city hall. My son bought tickets it turned out to be thirtyth aniversary of Live and dangerous album

 

my son went to front and let his hair out of pony tail it made me feel really old because thirty years ago that was me and my mates on the original tour.

 

Gig would like to have seen was justin Currie (del amitri singer) at leadmill but was away in Zante

Been to far fewer gigs this year than in the previous three of four. Not that many outstanding ones this year either.

 

Ex-Delgado Emma Pollock at The Leadmill last month was one up there with the best though. Just wish there'd been more people there. Criminally underrated, as her former band were.

 

King Creosote at The Boardwalk in October was also ace. As were the Super Furry Animals in Leeds.

 

Wish I'd gone to The Shins in Manchester.

 

And looking forward to Stars playing The Leadmill next year.
