Howdy do..
I know, late again. I can only apologise for the Gigwatcher's tardiness for I was tied up with real actual work. No, really I was. Honest. Stop laughing at the back, I'm being perfectly serious. I was doing proper manly IT work; lifting heavy tape libraries, pushing the impressively masculine blue trolley of dobber and swearing at SCSI adaptors with some aplomb.
Umm.
OK so I was down in Stores listening to the radio, y'happy? I couldn't help it, Edith Bowman was having a go at Lil'Chris. I mean, that's just not right, she should pick on someone her own size.
Oh.
She was.
*koff*

As per usual I'll update the SoMC's Events Calendar with this just as soon as I can be bothered. The SoMC Events Calendar is, of course, rammed to the gills with lots of local gigs for local people (y'know, like you lot). However, in order to ch-ch-check it out (you see what I did there?) you'll need to be registered on the SoMC forum (it's simple, painless and, best of all, FREE!). If you're still undecided, here's some gigs from the Events Calendar that I've picked for your perusal:
The Strange Death of Liberal England @ The Joiners, Southampton - TONIGHT
Ed Harcourt @ The Wedgewood Rooms, Portsmouth - TONIGHT
Steve Arnott @ The Frog & Frigate, Southampton - 24/11/2006
Jools Holland & His Rhythm & Blues Orchestra @ The Guildhall, Portsmouth - 25/11/2006
Spear of Destiny @ The Railway Inn, Winchester - 30/11/2006
The Jamm @ The Wedgewood Rooms, Portsmouth - 08/12/2006
King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys @ The Ashcroft Arts Centre, Fareham - 09/12/2006
The Bluetones @ The Brook, Southampton - 07/02/2007
Such is the demand for Steven Seagal's appearance at The Brook on 24/02/2007 that a second, matinee, performance has been arranged for the same day. As it's a matinee performance some restrictions apply; no alcohol will be served in the downstairs bar (I don't know if they'll be selling Mr Seagal's famed energy drink instead though).
December the first is, as you should all know, World Aids Day. In an effort to promote Aids awareness (and, at the same time, have some fun) the mighty Hudson10 are once again joining forces with the equally mighty Adi Henry to become Adi & The Gaze. The gig takes place at the Old Vic in Portsmouth, entry is FREE; a whole load more information on what they've got lined up can be found here.
Red Honey & The Pimps, featuring the legendary John 'Two Chillies' Nixon on guitar, are taking to the stage. They'll be bringing their brand of X to the Nell Gwynne in Southsea on Saturday 2nd December and I expect to see you all there.
Well, that's about it for this week.. this afternoon I have mostly been listening to Wolfmother (does anyone have a flute they want to sell me?).
