Clydeside_Sheep Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 My line up for later this year is growing: AC/DC - Murrayfield - August Sleeper - Glasgow QM Union - October AC/DC Livewire (Tribute act) - O2 Academy - December You cannae beat an AC/DC tribute band for a good festive night out, its impossible. Livewire seem to have settled on December gigs at the Academy, judging by the past few years. Reviving the fine tradition when AB/CD used to play the Cathouse around Christmas / New Year, every year (which I miss greatly). Link to comment

That's a fine line up, I wouldn't mind seeing AC/DC one more time before they hang it up, which is likely after this year's shows. After seeing Ghost last month with my kids, I'm taking them to the Iron Maiden show in Glasgow next month. Then it's back to Midalidare Festival in Bulgaria in July for a 3 day classic rock and metal fest. To hell with shyte UK festival weather and minky portaloos, it'll be 35-40'C every day and in the middle of a beautiful wine valley. Then it's Dream Theater in Plovdiv's ancient Amphitheatre. 1 Link to comment

Firstly, they start around 4-5pm, to avoid midday sun, then running to around 1am. Secondly, it's an extremely dry heat in inland Bulgaria, so the very low humidity makes it bearable. Not always comfortable, but certainly better than the washouts I've been to at Download. Each to their own, of course. Link to comment

Aye, looking forward to them all. The bulgarian festival sounds great, how did you discover that? How do you get on with language etc and is the currency exchange favourable? cheers! Link to comment

How do you get on with language etc and is the currency exchange favourable? cheers! My girlfriend is Bulgarian and she goes back every summer for the festival. Last year was fantastic, we had veterans like Deep Purple, Saxon and Accept alongside millennial bands like Primal Fear and Stratovarius. This year it'll also be great. The language barrier isn't a problem for me when I'm with her obviously, but generally the under-50's almost all speaks English in some form. It's only when you go beyond the touristy areas and find a great deal of over-50's who grew up in the Cold War and before, who only speak Bulgarian and Russian (closely related languages, as Bulgaria invented the Cyrillic Alphabet). It's dirt cheap generally, but they are unfortunately ditching the Lev and adopting the Euro this summer, so I suspect inflation will kick in, like it did in Greece. Link to comment

elephantstone78 Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Ex smiths singer aka the grumpy vegan 5/10. Every day is like Sunday into shoplifters of the world was great. But most of the gig was fucking boring. Better laugh in pub pre and post gig. smiths tribute bands are about 10x better. Link to comment

I could have swapped a couple of songs for others but the whole show was a joy. Big up to the lass in an Everton shirt spotted by the cameraman. 1 Link to comment
