Concerts 2006

Chris · 16 Feb 2006, 22:17

Because i am nosey and there isn't a Meat tour (AFAIK) who is off to any concerts this year?

I am going to a few so far:

The Batchelors on Saturday
Dennis le Corriere on Sunday (the chap who sang in Dr Hook!)
Take That in the summer in London (Robbie Williams is due to make a surprise appearance for the night we are going!!)
Bryan Adams in Huddersfield in the summer
Morrisey in Halifax (in june i think!)
Westlife in July

Have I forgotten anyone?

Oh yes - The one and only St Cliff Richard on 25th november in manchester!!!!

The Westlife and Take That concerts are not my usual choice but a mate asked me to go with her so i agreed.

Heli · 16 Feb 2006, 22:18

I want to go see take that.....just not fair >_<!

Chris · 16 Feb 2006, 22:20

It would annoy you if i said we were going backstage at it wouldn't it!

Heli · 16 Feb 2006, 22:26

Shut up!

Keep Rocking · 16 Feb 2006, 22:26

I go to Alice Cooper and Deep Purple tomorrow.

I'm still waiting for more to come...

mariella · 16 Feb 2006, 23:16

Chris, I just know you will enjoy Dennis whats-his-name-Dr.Hook on Sunday...very happy for you, although also very jealous lol...please take lots of pictures...and say Hi to Dennis from me (since you refused to hug and kiss him from me lol)

Will go and see Robbie Williams twice in Amsterdam in June, that is it for this year!

Love,
Mariella

Chris · 16 Feb 2006, 23:20

I certainly shall enjoy it mariella.
Although if he starts singing Sexy Eyes to the young lady i am taking like he did last time then i shall be forced to slap him! I shall try and get pics and stuff for you.

Heli · 16 Feb 2006, 23:21

My only possible concert this year is the 46664 Concert in Florence.....don't know who the line up is yet though.

Yes...I remember that happened last time

...but please be gentle with Dennis-difficult-name if you Must slap him, do not seriously injure him...I do want to go to one of his concerts in the future!

Look forward to seeing the pictures and hearing all about it, Chris!

Love,
Mariella
...off to listen to Sexy Eyes...

Oh, Oh, I went to see James Blunt on Monday and that was suprisingly very good. He was only on stage for 1hour 15mins but then again hes only released one album...... Which I don't think is very good anyway. The support band; Jason Mraz, were awesome and I was almost scared that they were going to be better than James. Overall I think he pulled it off very well.

Jeanie · 17 Feb 2006, 06:53

I have only one concert date so far.. the year is young though, so hopefully there'll be more to come.

I hope to see Alice Cooper's "Dirty Diamonds" tour, in May. Love the Dirty Diamond's album btw.. Alice has a wicked sense of humour in this one.

Thea O · 17 Feb 2006, 09:32

I am going to see cliff 4 concerts in november in Manchester and Sheffield
thea

Bren · 17 Feb 2006, 09:51

Moody Blues in october

Ageing Bat · 17 Feb 2006, 10:17

Chris, although Westlife's not really my cup of tea either, I went with the teenager from hell 2 years ago......... and actually quite enjoyed it! For part of the show they were on a huge glass stage suspended over the top of the front half of the audience, so that those in the cheap seats at the back (where we were!!) could get a good look too - very cleverly done!

LucyK! · 17 Feb 2006, 12:13

I'm going to see The Darkness tomorrow night!

Leah · 17 Feb 2006, 12:23

Hi Lucy,
I went to see the Darkness last sat at sheffield and they rocked MEGA-TIME!!! Your in for a treat!!
Support band The Ark were good fun but as for Julliette and The Licks godknows what planet she was on!
I managed to get right on the front barrier of gig and they were amazing, I'd reckommend them to anyone
Have A great time, wish I was going again

dottie · 17 Feb 2006, 13:31

I'm going to see the Eagles at Twickenham this summer very close to where we live - us old rockers never, ever lay down do we!

LucyK! · 17 Feb 2006, 15:11

Leah...
Yeah we had a friend at Sheffield and she said it was amazing, something about someone wearing wings?!?!?

We've got tickets for a couple of seats at the right hand side of the stage, but can you walk down and stand at the front? I won tickets to see Bon Jovi at Gateshead Stadium back in 2000 and when we got there the seats were really bad so we just wandered down to the front and spent the show there, wonder if we can do the same again??

needmoremeat · 17 Feb 2006, 15:45

Not going to any concerts this year. Mam did mention seeing Elton John at Durham Cricket ground, but that was before she paid for our holiday to America at Easter! I've never actually seen anyone except Meat in concert, I don't really go to concerts.
However I do go to the theatre! Saw Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at the Empire last night, which was amazing! Yes, I've worked behind the scenes and saw the car fly a few times from the wings, but it was awesome seeing it from the front and seeing where all the songs fitted into the story

Also going to see Tonight's the Night in May

Caelan · 17 Feb 2006, 16:58

going to the Eagles in june and the Rolling Stones..
maybe George Thorogood too..

Maybe it's just me, but if you know he's going to be there, how is it a surprise appearance?!!!

Hoping to go to Bon Jovi in June, definitely going to the V festival in August, went last year and it was superb! Will make sure I stay over Fri, Sat and Sun nights this time tho', took me about 2 hours just to get off the site last year!

It's unannounced.
They made a big thing when announcing the reunion tour about how there will be a mike available if robbie choise to rejoin them and stuff. Obviously these singers have hectic schedules so the whole thing is planned. That is the one he will appear at

wizardofodd · 17 Feb 2006, 21:40

well i was gonnna go see The Darkness couple of days back but then i relised i was poor. hoping to see Alice Cooper if i can, oh and Greenday with a few of me mates, i aint a big fan but its a night out!!! but then again it all depends on the money.
