British bands live
This week I have seen some decent British bands live, tonight it was Douglas who will sadly split up after this tour.
On Monday it was My Awesome Complimation and the newly re-juvinated Not Katies who have changed loads after they're time on Trouble TV.
Anyone else seen some decent British bands live lately.

I haven't seen a good British band in a long time. Hopefully I should be going to the Do The Dog gig in London on the 14th which has about 5 or 6 British bands. I urge anyone who likes their ska to go.

Last Brit band I saw live was Razorlight back in April, and they were excellent. I was blown away, one of the best gigs I've been to, even if it was a touch short.

Saw Franz Ferdinand a couple of weeks before that, and they were immense too. Really into their live performance.

Going to see the Darkness supported by Ash in 3 weeks.

I have only seen two non-brittish band, the chillis and Electric Six and most of the gigs I have been to were ace. I have seen Radiohead (the best), Oasis, Feeder, Mull Historical Society and Travis (twice) and each was really good - great. Only bad gig I have been to was Idlewild which was ruined by this s****y support group called Laeto or something like that. They crushed my spirit and I wasn't looking forward to Idlewild anymore. Can't remember much of that gig.

Douglas?

I've seen them and know they were good. But I can't remember where.

I've missed Not Katies twice now. They played Frome once, when I wasn't in town and Swansea (along with Spunge and some other bands I havent heard of) about a week ago but I missed it due to not being able to drag anyone along.

Fair Enough, each to their own.

I saw them in May in London, they played a pretty long set, a good mixture of old and new material.

I'd love to see them again, AND The Darkness on the same bill.

I heard they (Ash) were gonna support the Chilis, but that was only at Murrayfield, and Hyde Park got stuck with Chicks on Speed....

They've supported Hundred Reasons and Lostprophets I think.
Not Katies are cool live, not the best but decent for only a fiver.
