Nice - really looking forward to the Talk Talk show; though obviously with a bit of a twinge of guilt.
I had a ticket for the 100 club show last week and didn't go - worked late instead. sigh.
Not seen Black Midi live yet but that's probably the one i'm looking forward to the most. Just seem to deliver something so completely unexpected.
I've definitely been to my fair share of great gigs this year. Big Thief at Bush Hall might be the best though I really enjoyed Sam Wilkes at Camden Jazz Cafe. Might be because i got dinner too :)

Sick.
I'm at that Talk Talk tribute show on the Southbank too!
Squid were brilliant live last week at 100 club.
I'd go see them again for sure. The vinyl version of the EP is due but not til November which is infuriating. They threw a little Daniel Johnston into a song last week and they covered a Robert Wyatt track at EOTR. That's a surefire way to please me.
I'm a bit of a black midi fan boy if I'm honest. Four shows this year so far.
I was at the Mercury awards last night and they blew the roof off... people didn't know how to take them. Matt's fucking goofy somersault was sick. First TV appearance and they made an absolute mockery of it.
I've seen Mystery Jets a few times. They're always a good live prospect.
My calender is looking good atm...
Charles Hayward and Kwake Bass tonight. I've got Pom Poko, Lightning Bolt, Tropical Fuck Storm, KGATLW, Anna Meredith and Richard Dawson imminent too.
It's been a really fucking great year for music in this country... probably because everything else about it is fucked.
