Thu, 23 Dec 2010 04:52:00 -0800 Blink 182, extra dates added http://siantyrrell.posterous.com/blink-182-extra-dates-added http://siantyrrell.posterous.com/blink-182-extra-dates-added

I wanted to do this in a separate post. seeing as I've already mentioned them on here. Plus my previous post was getting a bit long :)

 

Due to a huge demand Blink 182 have added a couple of extra dates to their 2011 UK Tour

01/07/2011- Birmingham NIA

04/07/2011- Liverpool Echo Arena

07/07/2011- Sheffield Motorpoint Arena

 

There's also still tickets available at Newcastle and for the 2nd O2 Arena date :)

And I've just noticed the support act are You Me At Six, which is a bit crap tbh, seeing as they're a bit pre-pubescent and need to grow facial hair. But saying that, I have yet to find a support act I think ooooh they're good. Don't get me wrong, their successful and people seem to like them, but there just not for me.

Blink-182-la-11-22-10

So yeh, that's it for me now. Two posts in a day.....but it is the xmas period. A time for giving :)

Thu, 23 Dec 2010 04:29:00 -0800 A couple of gigs I wouldn't mind going to..... http://siantyrrell.posterous.com/a-couple-of-gigs-i-wouldnt-mind-going-to http://siantyrrell.posterous.com/a-couple-of-gigs-i-wouldnt-mind-going-to

I'd love to see Plan B live, because he's touring round the UK in March. I keep forgetting to get tickets, and now most of what's left is seated at the O2. I don't particularly like sitting down at a gig, feels too formal. I want to be in the midst on the floor :)

I'm a huge fan of his latest album, even though most people aren't warming to it. Don't get me wrong, his first album is pretty good. My favourite song being Charmaine, but there's only so much rap I can listen to tbh. 

 

But for anyone that wants to get tickets still, they're pretty cheap. Only £26 from Ticketmaster.

He's playing at

02/03/2011- Manchester Apollo

03/03/2011- Wolverhampton Civic

04/03/2011- Blackpool Empress Ballroom

05/03/2011- Doncaster Dome

07/03/2011- Swindon Oasis

08/03/2011- Plymouth Pavillions

09/03/2011- Brighton Centre

10/03/2011- London O2 Arena (the one I'm looking out for :D)

 

Another gig i wouldn't mind going to is Mark Ronson & the Business Intl

With just the one date in February at the London Roundhouse it should be pretty good.

I've never really been a fan of Mark Ronson, as such. But I love the collaborations he's been involved in, such as Lily Allen and Amy Winehouse. Might be worth a night out :)

Wednesday 16 February @ London Roundhouse

 

Here's the latest video from Plan B, just for something to watch. It's one of my favourites on the album

Sat, 11 Dec 2010 09:58:00 -0800 Download 2011 http://siantyrrell.posterous.com/download-2011 http://siantyrrell.posterous.com/download-2011

As you may know the Download 2011 line-up has started. Confirmed acts so far being Linkin Park, Rob Zombie, System of a Down and Avenged Sevenfold.

This summer's festival was pretty good, with AC/DC, Aerosmith and Rage Against the Machines headlining. I reckon 2011 might top that, depending who the third headliner is going to be! We will have to see!

 

Earlybird weekend tickets are on sale until 20th December so if you want to go one of the biggest festivals for Summer 2011 you better get them quick :)

 

Im personally waiting for the day tickets to be on sale, because I am one person who does not do camping. Give me a 5 star hotel over sitting in a field any day haha. 

 

Line-up-12-10
Go on........buy your tickets!! :D

Tue, 16 Nov 2010 08:17:00 -0800 Linkin Park at The O2, 10 November! http://siantyrrell.posterous.com/linkin-park-at-the-o2-10-november http://siantyrrell.posterous.com/linkin-park-at-the-o2-10-november

Right guys i know this is a bit late....seeing as i went to the gig last week, but im still going to write about it!

 

First off it was an epic night, anyone that wants to see a huge band live I highly recommend these!! 

Right at the front is where you want to be, even if your aching for the next 2 days like I was....

 

 

I have to mention this because it makes me giggle every time. When I was waiting in line I see people there with scarves, hats....shopping. One of my hints is to dress light, even if your freezing your nipples off outside you'll be grateful when you get inside and your sweating like a hooker in a brothel!

I've got a jacket i always wear to gigs, though I do want to invest in a hood of some kind, just in case of the good ol' English whether decides to be you know...English!

But you can buy merch after the gig, and you can put your hands in your pockets while you wait....but don't dress like your going on a skiing vacation! Also wear shoes that are comfy and won't leave you with bruises from other people's feet. The band aren't going to notice your feet so dress comfortable!!

Well that's my little snippet of gigness.....and here's a video just to let you know how the gig went. Enjoy! (also check out my pics on Facebook, there pretty awesome if I don't say so myself)

 

 

If any of you actually read this ill be very happy, but it would be even better if anyone could post their gig experiences down. Whether it be a huge arena gig or just a pokey bar with your mate playing the guitar :)
