TRAVIS
I went to see Travis last night at the Caird Hall in Dundeee. This was Travis's second gig of the tour to promote thier new album 'The Boy With No Name'
It all started with a support act called 'Brinkman' who battered out 8 songs in total. The music was played well and their songs were good but they didn' please the crowd. It would have been better if the kept playing music from the cd that kept skipping (it was more amusing) I had been standing at the front since 7 o'clock and Travis came on stage at 9, which is quite late for a concert.
Travis came onto stage to the theme tune from Rocky via the crowd which was funny.
The song list was amazing, a mixture of old and new made it great. This is the songs played. Not in order.

Why Does It Always Rain On Me
Travis added a new addition to the band, Klos(dont know how to spell his name) who is Swedish and plays the keyboard.
There was stories who the came up with the songs and a great solo performance of Flowers in the Window by Fran.
The sound was great, i had 11 speakers in front of me, and everything could be heard.
Travis are great improvisors and decided to jump in the crowd and they are 1st class at working the crowd.
Reconemd the gig to anyone if you can get tickets.

I do believe the last gig I went to was The Red Hot Chilli Peppers about a year ago. This depresses me a lot. I used to love going to gigs. I'll have to check who it on in my area.
Saxon, London Astoria, May 15th.
Things kicked off with two decent support acts, the highlight being Masterplan's rather impressive drum solo, fitting in nicely with their melodic Power Metal stylings. Which warmed things up nicely for the headliners.
Just like when I saw them at the very same venue last April, Saxon were truly impressive. A strong mixture of the old (Heavy Metal Thunder, 20000 Feet, Strong arm of the Law, Crusader etc), and the new (Let Me Feel your Power, Witchfinder General, Atilla the Hun...); truly energetic performances, and the atmosphere was electric, a lot of people going a little mad. The final encore of Power & the Glory meant that it was a rush to get the last train Surrey-ward, but that's al part of the experience - and a great song to finish on! X^D
Next up? Megadeth or Scorpions, possibly both!

I'm planning to go and see Bryan Adams at Murryfield, Meat Loaf at the SECC and my brother bought tickets to see Rod Stewart so i might force myself to go to him if there is nothing else to do
Due to exams being rather close to the Download Festival (Damn! Look at this year's bands!), and having had a blast there last year, I'm going to Reading this August - anyone else going?
I'm seeing Muse at the new Wembley arena soon :)
My mates are going to download, they are getting a bus (from Scotland there) and once it finishes have only 22 hours till there next exam, they are crazy
Oh that is good! That is pure spur of the moment genius! Send them my regards!
