chickencam Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 We are going to see them at Westonbirt Arboretum on 17th July. I do hope that it will be a lovely summers evening too but maybe that's asking to much We wanted to go and see the Beautiful south there a few years ago but couldn't get a babysitter, there are some advantages of having teenagers, although they want to come too so it been a costly exercise, but a good present for OH's birthday on Monday Anyone else got summer outdoor concerts booked yet?

One Man Banned Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Ooh I was thinking about booking tickets to see Texas after hearing about it on the radio this morning.....hmnnn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted February 11, 2011 Author Share Posted February 11, 2011 That's where we heard it too £33.50 per ticket with a £3.35 booking fee ( I hate booking fees) I had to pay an extra £16.75 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Just the one date announced - thats a shame. I adore Sharleen Spiteri Nothing booked for me as yet,but my girls went to see Milton Jones last week & are seeing Jason Manford next week. There is Reading Festival too of course,which I WILL be going to this year if the Red Hot Chilli Peppers are playing,as they are rumoured to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted February 11, 2011 Author Share Posted February 11, 2011 My Hubby got so excited this morning when he heard about this, he is a massive Texas fan but has never seen them live. We are not so keen on Sharleen's solo stuff, but she has an amzing voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margalot Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 We are going to see Scouting for Girls at Westonbirt on 19th June!, I did want to see Erasure too on the 18th, but my OH xmas pressie was booked to see Peter Kay at the LG arena on Firday 17th June and we are stopping ovenight at a hotel there, so had to abort the Saturday night gig I went about 3 years ago to see The Feeling there and it absolutely tipped down all evening!!... didnt spoil the fun though we were still dancing away with our pac a macs and wellies, had to get a push out of the car park though! It was a lovely atmosphere there, picnics and families not too crowded pray for a nice evening!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted February 11, 2011 Author Share Posted February 11, 2011 I would have quite liked to see Scouting for Girls too, but finances won't allow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jess1merlin Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 We went to see Texas at the NEC a few years ago, they were really good. Did see Simply Red at Westonbirt which was also excellent, my only tip would be to go early so you can get yourself positioned quite near the front as its a 'first come first sat' sort of system there.
