Starting to pick up tickets for shows:
Hey Rosetta
Jose Gonzalez
San Fermin
Echo & the Bunnymen

Thinking of getting Rush cheap seats. Maybe Van Halen. Marilyn Manson & SP cheap seats up on Groupon for 19$ LOL. Still going to pass on that one.

I recommend Mew, some of their songs are great, they opened for NIN years ago in the US. They're from Denmark and play some pretty complex prog rock. but....they're not for everybody, the singer's voice is a bit on the unusual side. Very skilled musicians though

So, due to illness (throat problems)Robert Plant cancelled the Toronto show and rescheduled to Sept 15th.

The Pixies;however, are still playing at a small, 400 person capacity venue! Tickets went for $20! I'm so bummed I missed the announcement last night. The tickets went on sale at 10pm, and needless to say, sold out immediately! :sad:

Similar thing happened to me back in '90 or '91 - Sonic Youth was supporting Neil Young(!) and Young developed some sort of ear infection and cancelled the LA show but Sonic Youth booked a day show at the Roxy for the day off which my friends and I managed to score tickets for.

Just got tickets for the Animal Collective show in Manchester on April 13. Quite happy.

And if Manchester United make it to the semi-finals of the Europa League (wishful thinking), I just might stay for an extra day to catch their match on April 14.

:agree:

My 2016 concerts so far...

Nina Hagen
Leon Bridges
Savages
Thao & The Get Down Stay Down
The Cure

PJ Harvey is releasing a new album in the spring and announced a couple of festival dates. I hope she comes to North America too...would love to see her. It's been more than 10 years since she was last in Toronto.

I will likely catch one or all of the Gary Numan shows in May. He's doing 3 classic albums shows - REPLICAS -THE PLEASURE PRINCIPLE -TELEKON. Tickets should be going on sale soon for that.

I'm going to one of the New York shows at Madison Square Garden- 18 June. :banana:

The Toronto Cure show has not been confirmed yet. I really hope it's not at the Amphitheatre. :jasper:

Ah, nice. I didn't mind the amphitheatre Cure show I saw... the sun going down over the water.. purple sky... kinda gothic.. the sound was bad, of course... :lol: But better than the ACC.

Yeah, I'm not crazy about the ACC either. There aren't really any other options though. Unless they do an 8 night run at Massey Hall or the Sony Centre. :noclue:
One of my issues with the Amphitheatre, poor sound aside, is the location of the venue. Going there is okay; it's the leaving that sucks. Everybody corralled like cattle to exit from the same place is really annoying!
