No, I mean old old. It was weird.

@Matt - had a similar experience at recent Hugh Cornwell gig. i'm 50 and i was by far the youngest pup in the audience. Hugh is still driving hard, kudos to him. he's almost 80 i think

[Matt]

Yeah it was weird. Like everyone was there to see their grandsons show.

October/November 2025 keeps looking better and better. Anyone else going to be at the Royal Albert Hall on 10 October?

[endo]

got tickets for Hermanos Gutíerrez in Zurich's Tonhalle in November

(they are opening for the Black Keys at Red Rocks on Tuesday @Mizmazzle @mclaincausey )

[goosehd]

@endo love them and have been on a steady rotation on my playlist. Great to listen to as a background as I’m working or just enjoying a drink.

[dinobarnesberlin]

Hermanos Gutierrez are so good.
Too bad they won't be playing in Berlin on this tour.

[Mizmazzle]

@endo I do dig Los Hermanos G! That theatre looks out of this world gorgeous. What a phenomenal place to catch a show of this style.

[ARNC]

My turn to go to a concert full of really old people (although the general spread was much better than expected and I was far from being the youngest). Yes, it would’ve been better to see the lineup from 50 years ago, but Hawkwind was still fun tonight.

Obligatory crappy pics:

[Mizmazzle]

@ARNC Lemmy was there in spirit!!

[mclaincausey]

@endo thanks I bet I’d like HG and will check them out

[Graham]

@catdad1 Hell yea!

and Aaron the drummer wears Iron Heart - @Josh has repaired a few pairs of his 777's

[catdad1]

@Graham no shit! That's so cool I would have never guessed. He was one of the first drummers that got me into drumming way back. Actually forgot to mention I caught one of his sticks at the end of the night.

Really special to see Bob Vylan open for Iggy at Ally Pally tonight.

Iggy is still swinging hard

Bob Vylan open for Iggy

yes man, wish I'd seen that!

[Bridger]

The two Bobs are super cool. They hung out after the gig for about 20 mins, chatting to fans and taking selfies.

Iggy, shirt off at 78 was jumping around and smiling like a 15-year-old, loving it like it was his first time on stage.

same in Cologne 2023

@Bridger I decided against this in the end but good to hear it was a special night. Curious to know what you made of Joe and the Shitboys. I saw them at a tiny venue last year and I’m not sure how their thing would translate to a bigger stage.

[Bridger]

Hi @ARNC, I understand your decision not to go as Ally Pally is a shit venue and a trek to get to.

I arrived during the last song of Joe and the shittys, so I can't report anything I'm afraid.

[ARNC]

@Bridger thanks anyway! The venue and midweek timing were definitely a factor in staying away, but I’ll be there at least once (maybe twice) in November.
