Gigs ‘23

[CygnusX1]

For Christmas I was given a ticket for an Elton John gig at the O2 next Tuesday, never seen him before so going up with an open mind.

As we’re in London on the Monday I had a peep to see what else was going on up in the big smoke and I’ve struck gold - well at least as far as I’m concerned. John Fogarty the creative force behind Creedence Clearwater Revival is playing in the O2 next Monday and they had tickets left - Winner! He’s a bit of a legend and I’ve always wanted to see him play live so the credit card’s been maxed out and I’ve got 2 nights at the O2 next week.

There are some cracking songs by CCR.
Fortunate Son
Bad Moon Rising
And (now poignantly) Proud Mary

I used to have their "Bayou Country" album in 1969 but don't know what happened to it, maybe took it to a party and it never left, lost a few albums like that including "Deep Purple in Rock" :lol:

I have to say that I was impressed with the new floodlights at The Racecourse.

I have an mp3 player (remember those?) plugged into an amp & speakers in our kitchen with about 3500-4000 tracks on it playing in some pseudo-random order and first track on when I pressed play just after I read the above post was The Mission's "Deliverance (Sorcerer's Mix)". Spooky!

Motley Crue were awesome on Saturday, really put the energy into it. Leppard were ok (not my bag tbh) It's The Cult tonight for about the 20th time
