Black Sabbath

Under the Sun/Every Day Comes and Goes
After Forever
Into the Void
Snowblind
War Pigs
Behind the Wall of Sleep
N.I.B.
Hand of Doom
Rat Salad

Dirty Women
Children of the Grave

Encore:
Paranoid

I'd have loved to have seen Black Sabbath. You have to see these older bands when you can, as you won't get another chance. It's why I went to Iron Maiden last year. I doubt they'll play SA again. I've just come back from this http://www.upthecreek.co.za/ Highlights were Dan Patlansky, Southern Wild, Black Cat Bones, and especially Taxi Violence.

Don't know wether to admit to this but went to see Elton John at our Widnes stadium and it was brilliant. Great weather few sherbets and everybody was having a great time. He done over 2 hours non stop doing most of his greatest hits.

I went to see British Sea Power in Feb and they were supported by 'The DSM -IV'. I've got Yo La Tengo in Manchester at the end of the month, and 'The Wedding Present' in Liverpool at the beginning of may. Then 'Half Man Half Biscuit' at the Ritz in Manchester at the end of November. Darren Hayman (ex Hefner) is playing up in Manchester around june/july-ish, id love to go and see him as well.

Oh I forgot to say I went to watch Mozzer in leeds as well. He was very good, but The DSM IV and British Sea Power in Liverpool has been the best so far.

Almost forgot about this thread ...

Alice Cooper in Leeds last November.

The third time I'd seen Alice but to see him reunited this time with former bandmates Michael Bruce, Dennis Dunaway and Neal Smith for a few classics was an absolute joy.

Nita Strauss is well worth seeing too!

Taken in a couple of tribute bands recently;

Limehouse Lizzy at the Leopard in Doncaster (13 April).
Always a pleasure to see this tribute to the music of Phil Lynott and Thin Lizzy.

The Illegal Eagles at the Doncaster Dome (20 April).
I don't particularly consider myself a fan of the Eagles but have to say after taking a few numbers to warm to it, this was one hell of a decent show. Six very talented musicians, five of which take on lead vocals at varying times. For anyone who remotely likes the Eagles, this is a band well worth seeking out.
