2015 Bands I Saw


As 2015 gradually winds down, a last chart. Didn't see too much live stuff this year. A meager six gigs aside from lots of great Newcastle locally based jazz. Ride was the pick of these six. Astonishingly, I left the venue under the realisation that it was one of the best things I'd ever seen in over thirty years of gig going. They were just blisteringly good. Have been promising to write more about the night on here and will do so next year. In the meantime, the order of merit otherwise goes as follows:

1. Ride
2. The Legendary Shack Shakers
3. Bill Ryder-Jones
4. PiL
5.. Courtney Barnett
6. Jane Weaver (the solitary disappointment)
