Nobody mention air-conditioners (the failure of which have caused the Gigwatcher to appear much later than planned) and we might make it through this OK. In the few brief minutes I had to scan the back pages of the NME this lunchtime (before I found myself in a small hot room full of expensive IT equipment that had acquired a funny 'burning' smell) I was able to spot the following:
Seafood @ The Joiners, Southampton - 29/07/2006
The Rifles @ The Wedgewood Room, Southsea - 02/10/2006
Embrace @ The Guildhall, Portsmouth - 04/10/2006
J Spaceman @ The Arts Centre, Salisbury - 20/10/2006 (an acoustic return to the stage)
Lily Allen @ Pyramids, Portsmouth - 03/11/2006 (I bet it sells out damn quick too)
The Zutons @ The Guildhall, Portsmouth - 29/11/2006
I'll bung the above onto the Son of Music Club's Events Calendar where they'll join the large number of gigs that I stumble into on my endless journey across the interweb, for example:
Steve Arnott @ The Frog & Frigate, Southampton - 28/07/2006
Scarlet Soho @ The Joiners, Southampton - 03/08/2006
The Hamsters @ The Brook, Southampton - 11/08/2006
Kojak's Revenge @ The Wedgewood Rooms, Southsea - 26/08/2006
Amy Wadge @ The Cellars at Eastney, Portsmouth - 27/09/2006
Yadda yadda if you wish to interrogate the repository of local gigness that is the Events Calendar rhubarb rhubarb just point your browser to that thing in the place and log in (there's bound to be something in there that tickles your fancy, or the fancy of someone you know, or the fancy of whoever happens to be sat beside you).
As readers of The News will know, Fareham Borough Council have done for Girls Aloud. Bah, and furthermore, humbug. Status Quo can rock all over the world, just not in Portchester thank you very much. I'm beginning to think maybe Anakin was right with his views on dictatorships. There's a feature in today's edition where several people expressed their umbrage at the decision, not that it'll make a jot of difference.
Right, I'm out of here before the lightning hits and fubars the air-conditioning again. Allez, c'est la maintenent!
