I took some photos on my iPhone that you can see below.
Went to see them last night at the O2 Academy in Leeds, 1st time I had seen them live, Before I went I thought I would be the only one there that didn't know anything they had done but as they started I began to recognise some of the songs and in the end I knew more than I thought I did. It was a good gig and the crowd was good too, they where very passionate about SLF. At the end of the gig we went to get some t-shirts, I asked for a kids t-shirt and the guy asked how old? I said 9 months, i mean 10 months, He looked at me and 9-10 months? the smallest we've got is 3-4 years, I said that will do as long as he's got one! then a cheer went up around me and call of nice one get him in early. I felt so proud and walked away with a huge smile on my face.

Last november my brother asked me if I'd like to go see Public Image Ltd live in Leeds in December, It didn't take me long to reply with a resounding YES, I've seen the Sex Pistols and never had the chance to go see PIL live so I was excited about this, Then came the bomb shell, tickets are £38!!! It didn't take me long to reply with a resounding NO CHANCE, as much as I like Public Image, as much as I'd loved to see them live there is no way I'm paying £38 for a gig thats going to last about 90 minutes. A week before the the gig my brother text me asking if I would like to go see them as there are still tickets available and he would pay for me and Louise to go, I said thanks but no I'm not going out of principle, It's £76 before we even leave the house then there is the beer money, train and taxi fare home oh and don't forget the hiked up prices on the t-Shirts, how much are they these days £30-£35? you would have been talking £160+ for about 3 hours. Now Gary Numan was playing the same venu in December and his tickets were £17, I would have gone to see PIL if they were price at that. That's another whine for another day the cost of t-shirts at gigs...but I'll save that for another post. |
