Just booked for Sea Power at The Sugarmill on 14th October. They're the band I've seen live the most (about 50 times), but I haven't seen them locally since the first time: Staffs Uni in 2003. Gary Delaney is in Whitchurch on June 26th and Hanley on August 6th. He's the comedian I've seen live most, and he probably gets funnier every time. I'm tempted by Floyd in the Flesh at Eleven in Tunstall on 1st July. The sound has been great both times I've been to gigs at Eleven. The Annual Diversion in Northwich is a good little festival starting late afternoon 15-16th July, with mostly Cheshire-based bands. I'm going on the Friday, which is only £8 and mostly punk/garage rock type bands. Friday headliners The C33s are excellent. Hazel's Maze, playing on the Saturday, are well worth checking out for classic rock fans. I saw them a few weeks ago and hope to see them again at some point. Edit: maybe a link to the lineup would helpful: www.songkick.com/festivals/3437756-rare-vitamin-annual-diversion/id/40367640-rare-vitamin-annual-diversion-2022#lineupDefo try to go to that one if I can convince some one to come with me. Not many I know with a penchant for live classic rock! Weirdos Have you been to any gigs on your own or is this just one where it's the accompaniment that makes it more tempting? I go to loads of gigs on my own (as do plenty of others who I get talking to at times), so I'm sad if people miss out on gigs if they would've gone otherwise! I just checked out the Inglorious singles on Spotify and I'm tempted by the gig if I don't have much else going on at the time. Ride to Nowhere was my favourite track. |

If you like a bit of Floyd, there's also The Floyd Experience at Mitchell theatre in Hanley on Sat 17th sept - not seen them before, but their videos look good. Booked in to watch them. Eleven is a great additional for the local music scene, been there plenty of times now. Couple I've got coming up - Electromantics Sat 20th August, excellent 80s electro band, think Human League, Depeche Mode, Gary Newman, Ultravox, Heaven 17, etc, and also a brilliant Rush tribute band called Bravado on Sat 3rd Sept - the guy could be Geddy Lee's brother! |

Keep Live Music Alive in Stoke on Trent (and surrounding areas) is an excellent Facebook page, I’m seeing artists and bars/clubs I didn’t even know existed so give it a go!!!

The live inglorious stuff on YouTube really doesn't do them justice. I believe that Eleven spent some bounce back money on the sound equipment, I'd agree it's better than most venues. Sound is great at The Foxlowe Arts centre too, surprisingly so given the room it occupies. |

I was already tempted by The Darling Buds and MJ Hibbett, but Pop at the Lock in Middlewich looks more tempting after listening to Jetstream Pony. Lineup: "The Darling Buds, The Just Joans, MJ Hibbett & The Validators, Jetstream Pony, Nervous Twitch, and All Ashore!" MJ Hibbett & The Validators made the best song ever about 80s gaming (and probably gaming as a whole), Hey Hey 16k - it's a piece of genius. They're good fun live. |

You'd need to have a look at what he sings though as it isn't soul, retro etc. Highly recommended though |
