Obviously, I'm attending July 15th (GOGOL FOOKING BORDELLO!). My 'problem' is with July 16th. I'm not sure if I'll have to pay tickets for this yet, but the festival takes place in Athens, and I'll have to stay an extra day at a hotel, so there is extra cost no matter what. In general, I am a bit of a snob with big bands that come here when they are old (especially if I haven't seen them young; I'm afraid they'll ruin what I imagined they would be). But I thought I'...

Oh the fucking trauma of it all. My brother has offered to get me an IoW ticket for my 'ahem'th birthday but, as he is in Sri Lanka for the cricket, he has tasked me with getting them. Easy enough. If he'd transferred over the £400 required. But, OK, I can kinda take that hit till he returns. So I go to a website doing pre-sale tickets (approved by the festival). Guess what? They cost TWELVE QUID more... each. For 'handling fees and secure postage'. OK, so let'... MORE
UK punk legends The Sex Pistols are in the middle of a sold-out, five-gig stint at The Brixton Academy in London (November 8, 9, 10, 12 and 14). Additional shows in Manchester at the MEN Arena (November 17) and at SECC in Glasgow (November 18) were recently added due to overwhelming demand. Thirty years ago this fall, the song was first included on The Sex Pistols' only studio album, "Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols" which was reissued on vinyl on October... MORE
