Now got tickets for Blue Öyster Cult at Manchester Academy on July 22. They're currently booked for the smaller Academy 3, but sometimes gigs there have been switched to the larger Academy 2 if they sell enough tickets quickly enough. Should be a good show, whichever hall it's in.

I'm also considering Anathema in September at the same venue, although I'm still in two minds about it. I saw a superb show by them about five years ago, playing a set drawing heavily from the "Judgement" and "Alternative 4" albums. But their most recent albums have moved too far towards an indie-style sound for my tastes, and their support slot for Porcupine Tree was a disappointment.

I feel like I'm an influence on you, going to shows all the time... ;)

But I'm not seeing the same band over and over again, although there are plenty of Mostly Autumn fans who do just that ;)
