    Pixies at The Royal Albert Hall last night.
    Pretty good 7/10.
    Btw for anyone going to RAH there’s a lovely “hidden” bar in the basement.

    If there are any real Elvis fans on here, don’t expect tribute acts and karaoke, this is 100% music

    Kraftwerk at Brighton Centre last night. A real “bucket list” band I’ve wanted to see.

    Saw Samantha Fish and Kingfish Ingram last week - really good show, albeit a bit short. I thought Kingfish might have played a bit longer than just over an hour

    Not a gig, but went to The Lightroom at Kings Cross to see the Bowie “footage”.
    £25 is a bit pricey, but the viewing lasted 1 hour, stay as long as you want.
    So I watched it twice.
    Tbf I could have stayed longer, but thought twice was enough.

    Hen Ogledd at the Horse Hospital, Bloomsbury yesterday. Eight hour continuous show (we saw the final four hours) with songs from their latest LP and lots of interesting improvisation. Totally captivating (if you like that sort of thing, which I do). Free to get in too, which was nice.

    Played chaperone for my daughter on Friday. Static Dress exclusive album launch gig at The Black Heart in Camden. Only 150 tickets lucked out getting 2 as they usually play venues around the size of the Forum.

    Not really my thing and not helped by the temperature in the venue approaching the surface temp of the sun. That being said, the hardcore fans seemed to love it and The Black Heart is another new venue ticked off the list.

    Not a gig as such, but I’ve got tickets for the 3 days of State Fayre at Highlands Park, Chelmsford, handy as my sister lives about a ten walk from there. 
    Looking forward to Kings of Leon, The Lumineers, Kingfishr, Amble, Razorlight & Elvis Costello plus many more that I don’t know.

    Shame Neil Young pulled out of this (replaced by Alannis which is a bit of an outlier)

    I am sure Wolf Alice will be superb. I saw them at the O2 at the end of last year and at the Albert Hall more recently. I’m looking forward to seeing them again at Finsbury Park next month. I considered the Eden Project but didn’t book it in the end. Enjoy!

    Cavalera - the brothers that formed Sepultura, playing “Chaos AD” in its entirety last week. Super hot and rammed Electric Ballroom last week.

    Isle of Wight festival - not turned up on Thursday before the main area opens before.  Surprisingly busy. Main act is Maximo Park, couple of good tracks then run out of steam a bit.

    Think they were too focussed on when they had to leave this island

    Alyssa Bonagura at The Lower Third on Denmark St. Didn’t know this venue existed but we’ll look out for more gigs there as it’s  the sort of size Ms AA likes to hear music at.

    We’d seen Alyssa playing solo in Glasgow in March at C2C. That was really enjoyable so we thought we’d go again. This time, she had a full band so it’s quite different but still very good.

    I saw Blondshell at Chalk in Brighton last year - a more than decent act - a bit 'poppy' at times, but a good live act. I've also got tickets for the Roundhouse in December. As for Ice Nine Kills, I'll pass on that one.
