Title: ZZ Top and The Black Crowes, both in Manchester. Get in!
Post by: Twinfan on January 11, 2013, 10:25:28 AM

Just got tickets for both gigs this morning, result!  Two of my all time favourite bands.  I've seen both in the last few years and didn't think I'd get chance to see them again.

What a great start to the day  :D

Too far from me (Holland), but I love those bands. Have fun!

I'm guessing they're different shows?

I managed to get a ticket for ZZ Top's Hammersmith Apollo show and I'm really excited. It makes up for my failed attempt to get Kraftwerk tickets!

I correctly guessed who'd started this thread when I saw the title!  :lol:

Enjoy the gigs!

The only tickets I have for this year, so far, are for Scott Ian's spoken word show in Newcastle - couldn't pass that up.  Around 200 capacity (tops).

I want to see ZZ and the Crowes, but funds don't allow at present - will likely go if they don't sell out.

Which Queensryche?

The metal band with the really talented singer, possessed of a huge vocal range... Todd la Torre, Whip, Scott and Ed.

The "other" guy just has a ham fisted guitarist and a few journeymen whom he hasn't yet spat at or pulled a knife on...
