help me pick what Manchester gigs to go to in the next 3 months?
All of these (generally DiS-friendly) people are playing Manchester some time between now and December. Most I've never seen live before but to see them all would cost about 400 notes so help me pick the ones which will be worth splurging my student loan on, yeah?
Who's good live, who's bad? Any bargains? Is the Ruby Lounge always shit for gigs or was it just my fateful night to see Mumford & Sons which tainted it for me? etc etc
Feel free to suggest other good things coming up too, these are just my last.fm recommendations.
Or alternatively, ignore this and I'll at least have it bookmarked so I don't miss loads of them as I tend to do.
