Your 2014 Concerts

Posted by: Richard S on 04 November 2013

Just booked for Rick Wakeman's Journey to the Centre of the Earth in Liverpool next May.

 

Anyone else have forthcoming concerts to announce? I only discovered the last Steve Hackett tour from this site, so here's hoping for more undiscovered gems.

Kuma, my wife and I are going to this as well.

 

Not a concert really, but we are traveling to London to see Monty Python at the O2 this summer -- meeting friends from Cambridge and making a holiday of it.  Just need to procure tickets but that shouldn't be too hard (albeit expensive).

Bart,

 

That's great. I am looking forward to his Ravel. I haven't heard Ravel Concert pieces perform since Thibaudet plays D Major Piano Concerto a long time ago.

 

Another Concert for 2014:

Uchida's Schumann Piano Concerto with Muti/CSO

I have not seen him about 10 years so looking forward to the occasions.

Bummer that CSO cancelled Boulez concert due to his health reasons.

 

Apparently, the maestro is not well enough to travel.

Goldfrapp at The Lowry

I flew to New York and saw Neil Young at Carnegie Hall last Thursday evening.  It was a phenomenal show!  Solo acoustic, with many stories in between . . . such as how he acquired Hank Williams guitar and how he lent it to Bob Dylan.  And the guitar that Stills gave him, that has been repaired due to a bullet entering (and exiting).

 

Before the last encore he got really cranky about cellphone camera use in the audience, and cellphone cameras generally, saying he needed to create an ap that makes you look better in cellphone photos.  The next night I understand that the venue prohibited cellphones on at all during the show.  He is wont to get cranky.

Bart,

 

What can I say but  and I am green with envy.

 

I saw him  a few years ago at a solo gig doing Greendale and I was absolutely spell bound and locked into him. It was so intimate like just you and him sat in front of a log fire with Neil playing his acoustic guitar for you and having long conversations between songs..

 

I am green with envy,

 

Richard

Neil Finn is touring in April. For those not acquainted with Mr Neil Finn OBE, I highly recommend seeing his live shows - I've heard a few tracks from his new album (Radio 6 Music etc) and I know he's releasing it on vinyl too. Just need to get the RP3 plugged into the SU....

You've just reminded me that I've not listened to 'Try whistling this' for ages

James N - 'Try Whistling'..such a great album, if not his best. 7 Worlds Collide is definitely worth a punt - Ed O'Brien, Sebastian Steinberg, Johnny Marr, Eddie Vedder, Lisa Germano and Phil Selway (plus guest appearances from Tim Finn and Betchadupa) made for a great Crowded House/Split Enz/Finn concert. A good recording too.
