Saw Public Service Broadcasting at Margate Dreamland last night. At last they've got a PA that does them justice, new visuals are good too.

Saw 'Mr. Jimi' at Woburn Abbey in 1968. A few weeks ago I went to the Hyde Park Hard Rock Café to see his "Isle of Wight" custom Gibson Flying V guitar of which I've two replicas in my collection.

Went to see The Rolling Stones for the first time on Friday at the London Stadium, totally fantastic. All in their 70s and put new bands to shame. Just wish I hadn't waited so long to see them

Currently listening to the album 'clutching at straws' by Marillion. Listening to that now makes me realise that they should have received greater recognition for their songs back in the day! What an awesome album!!!

Fantastic album mate, Marillion are one of the most underrated bands (except to the fans of course!)

Me again, fresh back from Woburn Abbey.
The only Marillion track I ever heard was Market Square Heroes and it was driving. Some decades ago my brother tuned their piano at the Milton Keynes Bowl; young lads from work went down to see them, enjoyed the gig, but came back full of praise for a band of old musicians:- Jethro Tull. I had the pleasure of telling them I saw Tull's first gig at the Marquee in 1968 (Mick Abrahams and all). They were supporting Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac. After the gig I drove all the way back to the Lakes in my parent's Ford Anglebox- no M1-M6 link in those days.
Later that year I saw John Mayall's Bluesbreakers at Morecambe pier; by then I appreciated the sound of a Gibson Les Paul and the guitarist, a very young Mick Taylor played a blinder on his blending wah and the Bigsby wammybar to awesome effect. I'd liked to have seen him when he was with the Stones.

Some cracking songs on that album, so very hard to pick a favourite but I do like 'warm wet circles', that guitar solo takes some beating!

I've been listening to a lot of 'Mamas Gun' recently. Just released their fourth album & its pretty good, they have some great songs in their catalogue!

Did Camden Rocks last Saturday, great day out if you want to see something new. Two stand out bands, Brigade and Ravens Eye, both rock, Brigade seemed to me to be a more melodic Queens Of The Stone Age, Ravens Eye weren't goth metal as I expected but an up to date blues rock kind of sound, bags of energy and character.
