Let The Countdown Begin!!

Hooray!  We've got tickets to see Elbow in Concert at the SECC next March!  I persuaded poor J to phone up the dreaded TicketsRUs equivalent this morning!!

And they're releasing a new album!!

I await it's release with trepidation - The Seldom Seen Kid will prove a hard act to follow.  But they're a band that seems to get better and better with age, so hopefully they'll produce a worthy sequel!!

Elbow is awesome! I was supposed to see them last year with Coldplay, but it got cancelled :(

I've seen footage of them live and they do seem to be quite awesome! They did a live version of The Seldom Seen Kid in it entirety accompanied by the BBC Symphony Orchestra and it was brilliant - it's on YouTube.

I'm really really looking forward to it! They've been my inspiration for my current WIP and it's always extra-special to see a live concert which will hopefully stoke up the creative fires!

I'm sorry the gig got cancelled. I don't think Coldplay are as good now as they were in the days of Parachutes and A Rush of Blood to the Head. But they'd still be great to see live...
