Gig spy

McCartney

Peter Perrett at Islington Assembly Halls last night was amazingly good. His son Jamie is superb on guitar and they have the great John Cowsill on drums. Mixture of Only Ones classics and stuff from his excellent new LP. PP in great voice.

Got a few coming up
- Soft play, Village Underground. Small gig for them, will be sweaty
- Wombats, Earth hackney.  New album launch(ish) gig

Managed to get pulp tickets at o2 for June also.  Really looking forward to seeing them inside an venue for the first time (always outdoors before)

No.  Brit Week tickets did go on general sale via the Dice app, but sold out in minutes.  There is a prize draw still running for a couple more days: https://britsweek.warchild.org.uk/prize-draws/soft-play-prize-draw?utm_source=earned_website&utm_medium=landing_page

Soft play, despite the name change, still one of the best live bands on the circuit, even if I am too old for this shit.....

My first gig of the year was on Monday, the Spanish band Hinds at Concorde 2 in Brighton. They were enormous fun - they're playing the Electric Ballroom in Camden on Tuesday.

More coming up this week - Personal Trainer at the Dome in Tufnell Park (not been there for about 30 years!) on Wednesday, the Bug Club at the Electric Ballroom on Thursday.
