If it wasn't for my wife I would have gone to ZERO gigs this year
5/1/18 -Oxford bully- Brickwork lizards-flights of helios I remember hating this support band, I cant remember why but I'm sure if I saw them again, I would hate them again.
20/4/18-Oxford tap social- brickwork Lizards This year I have seen more bw lizards than the dwarves, this doesn't reflect my taste
27/4/18- Oxford Wheatsheaf- Pink Diamond revue perhaps I was playing in other acts tonight as it seems odd to have only seen one band, but of course I cannot see myself.
24/6/2018- Oxford bully- pieranormal fest-Brickwork lizards-undersmile-von braun-lee riley and macarena- rabbit spazz band. I don't think I was the only one confused trying to figure out when the spazz bands set started, or ended for that matter!!!!
10/7/2018- Camden underworld- Dwarves,hip priests, nick oliveri death electric All support bands have to be worse than the main band, that is why I have seen hip priests multiple times this year alone,I will never watch them headline as I hate them, although it is comedy gold to watch panda boy.
10/9/2018- aylesbury theatre- camel Bands should have a limit for how long they are allowed to perform for, anything over 45 minutes and you deserve to be shot on stage.
11/11/2018- Camden black heart- hewhocannotbenamed - hip priests Hewho is a legend, my favourite bit was finding the bassists signature plectrum on the floor and upon reading his name I threw it back on the floor.
18/11/2018- Camden black heart- blag dahlia acoustic, nick oliveri acoustic if only blag and hewho were on this stage at the same time instead of a week apart, both of them together must be great, and annoyingly I've yet to see it happen!!!!
and so next year I'm staying in!!!!
