A packed, hot, sweaty Joiners on a Friday night. This is how to see live music. This is how to see my first TRB gig. About time eh.

Johnny Hates Jazz – live in Poole
A handful of hit singles in the late 80s and a number one album – that and some friends keen to see them was enough to take me to The Lighthouse, Poole to see them on tour.
Merrill Osmond says farewell – live in Ringwood
Lead singer of 70s pop sensations The Osmonds plays his penutimate gig in the UK, before retiring..in Ringwood of all places. It would be rude not to pop along eh?
Stiff Little Fingers – ‘Putting the Fast in Belfast 6’
Bit of a long standing ambition this one – seeing Stiff Little Fingers in their home city – and it didn’t disappoint. One of my gigs of the year and a great trip.
Victorious Festival 2024 – my wander through it, from The Murder Capital to Biffy Clyro
My tenth visit to this diverse city festival by the Solent. Paced myself and didn’t race around too much – I’ve got to that age.
Poole Harbour Festival 2024
Sunshine, sea air, jet lag and a return to live music after a holiday.
AC/DC live at Wembley
AC/DC. I had to do it once.
The Killers bring a bit of Las Vegas to London
A little bit of Las Vegas comes to the O2 Arena, London with a string of concerts by The Killers. After my own string of Killers calamities, I finally get it right.
Green Day – Live in London
I return to Wembley Stadium, reluctantly, for what transpires to be a lesson in how to play in a place as huge as this – Green Day – thirty gigs in to 2024 and this is my gig of the year so far.
Placebo – Southampton Summer Sessions
The Summer Sessions in Southampton. An outdoor gig in the middle of the city, in the most urban of locations. One of my favourite bands of recent decades playing – short trip. Gotta be done.
