flaps Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Looking forward to OMD. Obviously, they're well known for their 80's hits, but the last 3 albums since they reformed are all good. I particularly like English Electric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lxxx Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 No idea who Jake Bugg is and vaguely know that Blunt fella is the one with the whiny voice with one song to his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the stinking enigma Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Jake bugg is class, as the fact woody doesn't like him should confirm. Woody is more of a david allan coe fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blunt sold out in 5 days for next June's concert. The Villa Marina /Isle of Man in general, seems to have a nice reputation with musicians. There's no doubt that the atmosphere and ambience are unique. eta: I should know I've performed in a band on that stage you know.

Just not with audiences! I think the musicians feel the Island is a bit out of the ordinary and do seem to enjoy it. They've probably played most UK towns before.

gettafa Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Yes, that is what I meant. Some will find it a drag having to come here, whereas others realise they are going to 'somehwere else'. eg Elton John, Blondie, James and countless others found it had something special. And the Villa is an excellent venue and has a nice acoustic when there is a good crowd in there. I sussed that out playing my clappers when on the stage with Rushen Primary School Percussion Band in the Guild all those years ago (2nd place) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTeapot Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Declan is right, hit and miss is possibly mild. Sometimes the sound is just rubbish. It seems they just give up on trying to get it right and turn everything up. Not always, they get it right sometimes (James, Graham Coxon) but sometimes its just awful (Cast, Morrissey) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
