The Filthy Tongues – Cabaret Voltaire
As my son missed the Steve Mason gig, I bought tickets to go and see The Filthy Tongues in Edinburgh.
The Darkness – Bad Nerves – Barrowland
I took Emma back to the Barrowland for her Christmas present to see The Darkness who were great. The support band even better!

I was going to take my son to see Steve for his Christmas but he was ill, so I took Emma for the second time to see him. She wasn’t complaining as she love the first gig in Edinburgh.
The Coral – Barrowlands
Another top band at the Barrowlands was too good to resist going to see The Coral especially with Gruff Rhys from Super Furry Animals as support.
