Although Cliff Richard is playing here next week, and I've never seen him live, so I might try and blag some last minute tickets! (Just to see him play "We Don't Talk Anymore", which is one of my favourite ever songs.)

Fabulous! Sorry, I'm not on social media much these days, too busy with work. I had no idea Toto were still going either, incredible which bands are still together. Bournemouth isn't the best place in the world to see bands, sadly, so I'd have to travel, which takes time!

How was the gig? Coach Party - kinda standard indie I guess, but I thought they were good!

Wow, fantastic, you're going to be very busy! I'd like to see Paul Carrack - and I didn't realise Christopher Cross was still going!!

That’s lovely.

Who are you seeing in 2026, anything booked yet?

Wow, that's quite the list! I'd love to see Last Dinner Party, I must see where they're touring. We saw an indie band called Coach Party the other week, they were pretty good - loud guitars. Other than them, nothing really, I hope 2026 will be better in that regard.

Hello, hope you’re well! What bands have you seen recently? We went to see ABC last night, they played all of ‘Lexicon Of Love’ with an orchestra, very good!

I have to don a stylish pin-stripe hat and say ‘she’s a swell gal, a real peach’ five times before I open the app.

Thank you but no.
