I'm going to see The Dream Syndicate live in March with support from fellow Paisley Underground band The Rain Parade!
About a month ago I got a couple of e-mails advising that tickets were going on sale for a show at the Hug and Pint, Glasgow on 11th March 2023. I duly logged in at the allocated time but was not successful. I then phoned Ticket Scotland to find it was sold out. Hardly surprising really given that the Hug and Pint has a capacity of only 120 which is ridiculously low for a band of their calibre.
Step forward a couple of weeks and I was in town. Walking under the Hielanman's Umbrella I stopped for a look in Ticket Scotland's window. They had a board up with a list of forthcoming concerts which included those which were sold out. Dream Syndicate were on the board but not listed as sold out.
It was a bit of a long shot but I popped in to see if they had any tickeds. They had two (probably returns) and one was duly purchased!
I've seen Steve Wynn on a number of occasions but not The Dream Syndicate so I'm really looking forward to it given that they now play that Psychedelic Americana that I'm becoming increasingly fond of.

Quite a double header to look forward to
ReplyDeleteJust popped by to say that Santa was persuaded to cross the picket line and has delivered Algiers today. Thank you so much.

ReplyDeleteI saw the Rain Parade in 1984-ish; had no idea they had reformed. Their original leader, David Roback (later of Mazzy Star) sadly passed away in 2020. What She's Done to Your Mind is one of my very favorite '80s songs. -- Marc
