Got tickets for Alice Cooper and The Stranglers at the O2 in October. Wife has nixed this one so delighted when my daughter said she was up for it Born and raised in Bournemouth, can't wait to take her my old manor. Will take in Greenwich Park, the Maritime Museum, the Observatory and the Cutty Sark then catch a bite to eat and somewhere nice to drink before the gig. Nothing better than spending time with my baby girl (even when she's 28 )

If you're eating in one of the O2 restaurants, make sure you book a table about one month in advance.
Done Tangerine Dream at the Barbican Wednesday night, ….could have been the next day as well ,went on for ever, nothing more to add zzzzz .
Saw them at the Albert Hall in the 1970s. Felt the same as you and left halfway through the show (well, I thought it must be halfway but perhaps they did a four hour set).
Now, I’m a soul and funk purist so I went to see James Brown’s trombonist Fred Wesley for the third time in all, but the first time at The Hideaway in Streatham, and who should I see on the way out? Only Sir Chris Powell. Had a 10 minute chat with him. Nicest bloke in the world of course.
Have caved in under huge pressure from my 14 year old daughter and bought three tickets for her , a friend and myself to see Duck ( or whatever he is called )at the 02 on 2 April . Unfortunately no one else can take them and I am lumbered with it as they are under 18 . Never been to a gig before and put on headphones to listen to other music on an iPhone or Walkman but there is always a first .

Saw him a few times years ago. Once with Maceo Parker, Pee Wee Ellis, Bobby Bird, Marva Whitney and others from the JB's.

Presume you mean Drake.
No I meant Duck but easy to confuse Ducks and Drakes I agree

Am I being whooshed ? Probably am. It's definitely Drake isn't it ?
I am going to see George Ezra at the O2 tonight, no idea what to expect. My last gig at the O2 was Jeff Lynnes ELO, more my era and style
Just to say left early as George Ezra live done nothing for me
Given that all of his songs are the same I’d say that you did the right thing.
Saw him with my daughter on Tuesday night - not my cup of tea but his show was very good. He has an excellent voice and the material was far more varied than I expected.
A very talented guy even if I'm not his biggest fan.

I saw the at Le Mans in '99, they were superb.
Am eagerly looking forward to baroque and roll from the Dutch Masters.

Shame about the new album, really dissapointing. Still should be a good show for you.
Just took my daughter to see him at the O2 - a lot better than I expected. A very engaging frontman and really impressed by his vocals.

First Stranglers tour I’m missing for 8 years as I’m away for work.
Heard they’ve been on fine form, dropping in a few new numbers too.
Let me know what you make of it!
