The Maccabees have called it a day, and are due to announce a few farewell shows. Never really got into them much despite liking some of their stuff. My flatmate is a big fan so no doubt he'll guilt trip my arse into going if they play somewhere local ish. Coral and Super Furry Animals both heading out on tour but have seen both fairly recently so probably a swerve.
Recent gigs all excellent. Very impressed by The Bluetones. Shed Seven as great as always and were much better than OCS in Leeds (I might be a tad biased
). Ash brilliant despite a few sound problems, forget how good their back catalogue is. Excited to see them perform 1977 in full later this year.
August is a slow month but things pick up in late September for me, a flurry of gigs to see the year out, got at least 8 (Yorfest, The Enemy, Fratellis, Ash, White Lies, Cast, Feeder, Shed Seven) from 24th September through to December.
Enjoy whatever shows you people go to see
Wow - had not seen anywhere The Maccabees has called it a day, pretty gutted. Been a big fan of them for about 10 years having seen them countless times, they always put on a good show.
Will be definitely try and get tickets for their farewell gig.
