Jodrell Bank Transmissions

Nice work Oliver. Love it!

Hi

Does anyone know the set times for Saturday please? In particular Cherry Ghost and, of course, the mighty Elbow

thanks!

Elbow are on at 9:30 but not sure about Cherry Ghost ... or anyone else

Nice to see lots of tickets coming out of the woodwork on here at Face Value! Hope there weren't too many disappointed not to get them. So looking forward to it and if the sun shines it will be even better!!

Have you seen the weather forecast... Its not looking good

Depsite me not going Lynne, I was heartened to see the very same myself, hope everyone has a great time !

I aint gonna take the mick re the weather forecast, it's no better when I'm at the Roses the week after !

At least it has "sunshine and showers" when you click on Saturdays weather! We'll be taking waterproofs and wellies, anyway - and a bin liner to sit on!

Anything, as long as it doesn't tip it down relentlessly all day....please, weather gods!

Wellies and waterproofs it is then plus a stinking hangover from Friday night's shenanigans in Chester (my buddies hen night). Hope maybe to see a few familiar faces! Enjoy everyone.

well i figure if i can cope with the downpour and mud of glasto'05 then i can cope with anything

having said that i may well buy some new footwear on saturday morning!

so after debating whether to drive or not, i ended up picking up a coach ticket off gumtree for face value. i'm fairly happy about that as it means i'm able to walk everywhere.

so not completely sure what time i'll be arriving yet. not sure what exactly to expect either, this will be my first visit to jodrell bank in about 30 years! would be fantastic to see some old faces, hopefully i will get there early enough to make it close upfront... or i may just inveigle myself upfront anyway, ha!

squee

one day like this

Amazing! Over the moon that they played Scattered Black and Whites!

ps, have just read that the Paul Weller concert has been cancelled, due to conditions.

The conditions were always going to be bad. Personally I think they should've pulled it earlier in the week and re-scheduled for later in the year. However, it didn't stop me enjoying the show. Glad I opted out of parking on the official car park in favor of a mate's business a mile or so away. I actually used my £5.00 car park ticket (which looked identical to the gig tickets) to get into the gig. The staff didn't even check it. lol
My biggest complaint isn't the weather, it's the fact that elbow now seem to be an attractive band to the flag waving Tory brigade who would normally be found at Gary Barlow's concert for the Queen. The idiots who still think that, 'The Seldom Seen Kid' is their debut album and talk through 'Scattered Black & Whites' because they've never heard it before.
Please, Elbow. Make your next record something really dark that they'll all hate. Hopefully this will force them all back to their Elton John concerts. Sadly, doing the Olympic theme will only have the opposite effect and probably attract more of these types. :-/

Oh come on now, don't go hating on people just because they've not been fans for as long as us.

Definitely hate on them for talking through songs though, be it scattered b&w or other

Guy did shush the crowd before scattered b&w

Having said that, the giant union jack projected on the dish will certainly align with certain members of the crowd.

It took a fair amount of dedication to go given the forecast. I would say there were more fans than casual gig goers.

Reading this makes me somehow happy seeing them in Germany, even if it's just once in three years. But we appreciate it when the lads are over here.
Nevertheless.... Hope you've enjoyed the evening even if it was a rainy one...
Still waiting for some pics and more gossip.
