In the last few months I've been to six gigs .. Bush Hall, Cargo, Southampton, Newcastle, Bristol and SBE. They were all brilliant; Bristol probably the best for sound, but wonderful to see SBE absolutely rammed full of people.
And now for the first time, I haven't got another gig to look forward to. Bugger!
Sorry I'm a new poster and I should have introduced myself. I'm Jules .. and I'm not really mad .. but I am feeling quite down at the end of such a great UK tour. How does everyone else feel?
Welcome to the forum! Well, although I was at SBE, I'm off to see them again on Monday in Brussels, so no withdrawal symptoms here yet.
There's some recordings of a couple of gigs from the Japanese leg of the tour in the Japanese Tour thread; they're something you could listen to if you need your KS live fix. Or you could just throw caution to the wind and travel to see one of the European gigs. Last minute flights are pretty-cheap these days, and I doubt if many of the gigs are sold out.

They don't always play Great Hosannah; it's one of those that slips in and out of the set these days. I'm fairly sure that fabchannel gig is the whole show start to end, anyway. So if it isn't there then they almost certainly never played it.

Hi. Welcome to the forum! Was SBE sold out? Apparently it has a capacity of 2000!
Kula Shaker certainly seem to be rebuilding their fanbase well, considering, when they started out again, they were sometimes playing to a few hundred people.

Yeah I think SBE was sold out..it was certainly jam packed downstairs and the top tiers looked full enough from what I could see.
Certainly a big step forward from the first gig I went to, which was down in Portsmouth soon after they reformed. No tickets there..they had a list of people attending and stamped your hand on the way in!! Great gig though!
Great gig though!
