Default [GIG] Ian Brown @ AECC

Apologies if a thread already exists.

So is anyone else going to see the legend next Monday?

Does anyone know who the support act is by the way? Heard it's reverend and the makers, whoever the hell they are.

I liked the Roses but not so keen on his solo stuff, plus he's shocking live. I'm giving it a wide berth.

I liked their first song, (the one about the Heavyweight Champion of the World) but their second was so annoying it undid all their good work! (the one with the cockney woman singing in the chorus)

I'm a big fan of Ian Brown and been to see him a few times, while he was great at the Barrowlands and Music Hall, he was definitely shocking the last time he played the AECC. TITP earlier that year was rank as well.

i'm going.... slight trepadation as usual as to how it'll be like.

Seen him 7 times before and it's never been short of incident or bad singing.

I saw him last time at the AECC, I had a good time, possibly helped by the fact that I had free tickets and also access to a free bar.

There's no doubt though that Ian Brown just can't sing live. I imagine it's a nightmare in the studio as well, god knows how many takes they have to do before they can splice one together that's actually in tune.

I was initially at 'definitely not going' then started swithering toward 'may go if not sold out' but being offshore has sealed to not going!
