Happy Weekend to you, welcome to Friday!
Today is exactly four weeks until @TheWelshWookie and I get married. Eeek! Time is flying by!
I mentioned in yesterday’s post that we were heading to a concert tonight. Do you want to know which concert? It’s a band I was a HUGE fan of when I was at school and at University: Hue and Cry.
They’re marking the 25th Anniversary of their dual album ‘Remote’ and ‘Bitter Suite’. Remote was a good, fun pop album, with slight political overtones. Bitter Suite was more acoustic, and was recorded live at the Renfrew Ferry. I love them both!
And so, Hue & Cry are playing two gigs: tomorrow night is a big, live full band set to celebrate Remote, while tonight is a full acoustic play through of Bitter Suite, with some ‘surprises’. I cannot wait!

I’m looking forward to having a break from wedding stuff, and from normal life – and reliving my teenage years for a few hours 😉
What was the last gig you went to? Have you revisited teenage bands much?
We were just talking about this band yesterday in work. Aka Shug & Greet! 😉
Ha! That’s the one! Weird!
I’ve never heard of them. What is a song of theirs I should listen to?
Their biggest hits here were ‘Labour of Love’ and ‘Looking for Linda’. Seem to like Ls! 🙂 my fave is ‘Mother Glasgow’ and ‘Shipbuilding’. Great stuff!
Never heard of them either but I’m ALWAYS down for a concert 🙂
Can’t wait! 🙂
Have fun! I’m planning the most simplest wedding I can – I don’t know how people cope with organizing a big shindig.
Never heard of them but have tons of fun! I love going to concerts, it’s been a few months but my last show was Frank Turner!
What a great gig!
I’ve kept things very simple too- it’s the only way!
Enjoy the concert! 😀 I love listening to old CDs, it’s really nice to be reminded of what I used to like back then (and generally find that I still really like the music and should listen to it more often!).
Thanks, it was fab!
My last concert was Adam Lambert. Maybe I should be embarrassed to admit that but nope! Have a great weekend!
Ooh, I LOVE him! I have a few tracks on my iPod!
Wow, that’s coming up quick!!
I’ve never heard of that band. My last concert was Nine Inch Nails.
Bet that was a great gig!
