COMPETITION: Win Two Bjork Tickets

Bjork Competition.
14th April - Hammersmith Apollo
Keep a close eye out in 2008 for future Seatwave competitions. We have some very special gigs to share with you; not wanting to boast but, to name a few, Radiohead, Foo Fighters and Bruce Springsteen all spring to mind. Oh, not to forget Pop classics such as Girls Aloud, Boyzone and Backstreet Boys.
To kick start the year, we have two Bjork tickets up for grabs for her sold-out gig at the Hammersmith Apollo.
Bjork will commence her world tour on January 18th in New Zealand and will hitting the UK in April.
The incredible and eccentric singer/song-writer has unleashed eleven solo albums since her debut in 1993. They are all crammed with beautiful melodies, crashing instrumentals and quirky, varying vocals. Her most recent EP, Declare Independence, was released in 2008.
Bjork is magnetic; she allures fans to her music like an animal prying on its prey. Her music threatens contemporary music. Her sound challenges fellow female or solo artists to struggle in a battle that has so obviously been won.
She glides through musical genres, picking and choosing the bits she likes best, like an excited child in a sweet shop. Once the sweets are selected, she mixes them together to create a tasty fusion of Ambient, Electro, Rock and Jazz, all of which are peppered with a little Trip-Hop.
For your chance to win two tickets to see the amazing Bjork live in London at the Hammersmith Apollo on 14th April, please tell us which three gigs you are looking forward to and why in 2008.
Please leave your comments below. The winner will be picked at random and notified by email.

I am most looking forward to Kylie; because I would give my left foot to see her once, just once. Bruce Springsteen; because he is legend, one of the only men that gets me smouldering, and Bat for Lashes; because she's a goddess.

Foo Fighters at Wembley – Guaranteed to rock, this mammoth stadium can only inspire them to reach greater heights.
Kooks @ London Astoria – great live, and with a new album to promote

January 11th, 2008 at 12:29 pm
I'm really looking forward to The Cure, Radiohead and the Smashing Pumpkins. Although I have heard from a couple of friends that the reformed Pumpkins really aren't that good, I have to hear it with my own ears to believe it.
January 11th, 2008 at 1:02 pm
Korn (Cardiff International Arena)
Smashing Pumpkins (02 Arena)

I cant wait to see Neil Young at Hammersmith. I also cant wait to see Radiohead again as they are amazing live, I cant wait to see Bat For Lashes as well as saw her last year and she was amazing, albeit not quite to Bjork's standards of amazing!
January 11th, 2008 at 4:22 pm
Even though I don't have a ticket yet, I am looking forward to seeing Bjork.
Come April I will beg steal or borrow to get in, but for now, I'll try this. I'm also looking forward to R.E.M, who will doubtless be Accelerating back to these shores come the fall.
And Sufjan. Dear Sufjan Stevens. He MUST come back to us later in the year, surely, with a new State of affairs to keep us enraptured, and possibly even some new wings to soar under.
January 11th, 2008 at 4:53 pm
three gigs i am most looking forward to are, alicia keys. then seeing the mighty boosh with a load of mates from highschool which will be flipping hilarious. bjork is obviously the biggy this year. she is just brilliant
January 11th, 2008 at 4:57 pm
the artists i'm most looking forward to seeing live this year if I get the chance too are Bjork i'd love to see her for the first time cos she's an entertainer, ecclectic and unique artist, i'd also love to see Radiohead again cos the last time I saw them was just b4 Kid A was released around 8 years ago, gosh time flies, that was the best gig i've ever been too!!! i'm also looking forward to seeing the super cool, sexy and unique
rock godess PJ Harvey
January 11th, 2008 at 5:01 pm
The Cure, (legends!) Kylie, (legend!)and obviously Bjork!!!!!!! (legend!)
January 11th, 2008 at 5:15 pm
I'm really looking forward to seeing Queens of the Stone Age in January, cos I'll be going with my best friend and reliving old memories of seeing them at Brixton a while ago. I'm also looking forward to seeing the Almighty at Nottingham Rock city, a chance for a rocking night out with friends followed by the club night after. A few days later I can't wait to see legend Henry Rollins on the Spoken Word tour at the Wolverhampton Civic, as I've heard it's an excellent night and something quite different.
January 11th, 2008 at 6:39 pm
I'm looking forward to Bruce Springsteen, never seen him before but always wanted to.. Radiohead should be great, saw them at V and realised how good they are live. Also Kylie, just to sit back and enjoy the spectacle.
January 11th, 2008 at 7:38 pm
It will be nice if Portishead release their new album and combine it with a tour, at last!
I also want to attend Radiohead in Dublin and the Kooks with Mariam, wherever.
January 11th, 2008 at 9:29 pm
I would love to see Bjork, she's pure bonkers. Bat for Lashes, saw her at Bestival last year and very enjoyable it was. Would also like to see the young pony club – anyone influenced by Grace Jones has to be worth a peek in my book.
January 11th, 2008 at 9:43 pm
I deserve to win the Bjork tickets because I am KING. I would most like to see SCREAM CLUB in San Fran baby or NY as my daughter is giving birth as we speak. Secondly im heading to Berlin in the Fall to see Rhythm King And Her Friends then on to Chicks On SpEed in Munich. My reason for all three are as follows: My heart kicks to their beats. Yeah.
January 12th, 2008 at 1:39 am
Celine Dion, it's so nice to have her back in the UK, Bacskstreet Boys, to remember the “good old days”, and Bjork Do I need to explain why!?
January 12th, 2008 at 10:34 am
The three gigs I am looking forward to in 2008 are: 1)the Cure, because they are one of my top favorite bands of all time, 2)because I'm trying to keep my hopes up, Led Zeppelin, because I've been listening to their music ever since I can remember, and 3)Smashing Pumpkins, because the are too awesome not to see.
January 12th, 2008 at 11:08 am
(Apart from Bjork.) Probably Chemical Brother, who have the best light shows at their gigs. Then think I'll be seeing New Young Pony Club and Hot Chip as they are two of the best new bands this year.
January 12th, 2008 at 12:24 pm
I like a mix bag when It comes to live music, so Im looking forward to seeing :
Radiohead, for lots of moaning !
Willie Nelson for lots of waving !
and Gogol Bordello for some good old punk action !
January 12th, 2008 at 12:38 pm
I can't wait to see the Futureheads at Strathclyde Union because it is a tiny venue and I'll get to jump around like mad! Next I can't wait to see the Von Bondies at Stereo – another small gig for a big band! Radiohead in the summer will be amazing, never seen them live before.
January 12th, 2008 at 12:44 pm
Next three gigs are: 27 Jan 2008 21:00 – The Almighty @ Academy 2, 28 Jan 2008 21:00 – Henry Rollins @ Wulfrun Hall, 27 Feb 2008 21:00 Electric Six @ Carling Academy. Just flown back from the States to see the Van Halen Re-union tour – the show I've waited 23 years to see! Fantastic! Hope that tour makes it to Europe as I definately want to see em again!
January 12th, 2008 at 12:58 pm
i'm most looking forward to dj krush at koko, cuz i feel like dancin', ATP cuz it'll be a real manic fiest, and my free bjork gig cuz it'll be so lucky to win!
January 12th, 2008 at 1:06 pm
I'm most looking forward to see Bjork, Radiohead and Bruce Springsteen !
January 12th, 2008 at 1:44 pm
Roisin Murphy- she is amazing and has a lovely new album and Daft Punk- they give an incredible show but seem to miss UK
January 12th, 2008 at 3:07 pm
The three gigs i'd most like to see are Bjork; saw her at glastonbury last year for the first time and would chew my own arm off to see her again! Bat for Lashes because i missed Nastasha & the girls at Glastonbury, she brough magic back to my music & the Mighty Boosh because they seam to be the only comedians/writers who dont take the mick out of others, only themselfs.
Thats tallent!
January 12th, 2008 at 4:21 pm
Bjork, Radiohead and PJ Harvey.if only.
January 12th, 2008 at 5:15 pm
My 3 most exciting are:-
1) Winter Festival Concert – held in trafalgar square with REALLY famous Russian artists that are unknown here. Foreign music sadly seems underappreciated in UK
2) DirtySweet – not sure what their like, but new music is always exciting
3) Bloc Party – not afraid to slip through musical genres. They can do no wrong. SOOO humble & nice to excited fans like me ^_^
January 12th, 2008 at 6:20 pm
Newton Faulkner because im really enjoying his pretty unique folk-indie style.
Jos
January 12th, 2008 at 6:51 pm
Bjork as she'll be original and surprising as ever, Snow Patrol as they're on a break and I miss seeing them, and Bruce Springsteen because it's a gig of a lifetime to see him.
January 12th, 2008 at 7:55 pm

Neil young at hammersmith in march – never seen him b4 so cant wait.

I'm super excited for Smashing pumpkins.. am lovingly caressing my radiohead tickets as I type and now am jumping around the room at the prospect of seeing BJORK! All dreams to come true for this '3rd world' girl
January 13th, 2008 at 11:46 am
well 1st is BJORK if i win this. she is my life i have all her albums and books. 2nd is CAT POWER on 27th at shepheads bush in london. and the 3rd is RADIOHEAD on the 25th jun. so they r my 3 i am going to.
January 13th, 2008 at 12:04 pm
I am most looking forward to Radiohead, Bjork if I can get a ticket and hopefully Portishead if they tour the new long awaited album
January 13th, 2008 at 12:27 pm
Hi there,
I would love to see Bjork as she is one of my favourite artists since the release of her first album.
I am also looking forward to hear Bruce Springsteen's great voice live this year.
I do not know the Foo Fighters very well so far but the songs I've heard made me curious and I want more.
January 13th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
To early in the year to be completely sure but My bloody Valentine, Radiohead and Morrissey. Also the sonics first ever gig in Europe and Bjork hopefully. If I don't win then I guess it's ebay to be ripped off by the touts.
January 13th, 2008 at 12:55 pm
Three gigs I'm most looking forward to this year are:
- First and foremost, Radiohead. Since I was a young teenager they've been my favourite band and I haven't see them for a few years. They hold an extra special place in my heart as through love of thier music I met my now husband.
- Band of Horses. Not a band I was very familiar with before, then I heard “No One's Gonna Love You” on an Indie radio station based in Scandinavia. Fell in love with song and then the entire second album.
- PJ Harvey. She's AMAZING and always will be. Only if I can wrangle a ticket somehow..
January 13th, 2008 at 1:45 pm
The three gigs I am so far looking forward to most this year are Billie the Vision and the Dancers, Tegan and Sara and Islands.
Billie the Vision and the Dancers are a scandinavian (Swedish) twee pop-esque band who are set to get bigger and bigger, they are supporting a chap named Seasick Steve who plays what I have heard described as “hobo blues”. BTV&TD are a veritable entourage of talented young people, whose lyrics and melodies are touching and humourous, like many other tweepop bands, dealing with dark, sensitive issues in a lighthearted way with catchy hooks and handclaps.
Tegan and Sara are girly, introverted indie, and I'm looking forward to seeing them live finally, as I have missed a few of their shows already. Despite their talents and great songs, this is a nod to the angsty teenage girl still residing within me.
Finally Islands, who I think are probably one of my favourite finds of 2007- “Don't Call Me Whitney, Bobby” and “Rough Gem” are two fantastic, danceable, sing-along songs which are know are just going to get me going when I see them live.
January 13th, 2008 at 2:01 pm
Bat for Lashes and Patrick Wolf, as with new albums, there will be many amazing new songs to hear, and Bjork, as this will be more than amazing.
January 13th, 2008 at 2:02 pm

January 13th, 2008 at 3:22 pm
I cant wait to see Radiohead, Camille – wonderful lady and Adele – she's cool. It's going to be an exciting year! xx
January 13th, 2008 at 4:03 pm
Well, Portishead Portishead Portishead! Hoping like fury that they tour the new album (due out in march people) just because they are one of the most amazing bands ever. Can't wait for Radiohead, always an amazing event. And (presuming I get my filthy mitts on them) I would be bursting at the seams to see Bjork

January 13th, 2008 at 8:51 pm
The three gigs I am most looking forward to in 2008 are Radiohead, Foals and Glassjaw.
Radiohead are a band who just seem to get better as they progress. Now with giving away their album for whatever the fan wants, They're playing a outdoor tour guranteed to be the most anticipated gig for Thom Yorke and co.
I am seeing Foals at the Astoria. Foals aren't going to be playing anything as small as the Astoria again. Critics are viewing them as a new Bloc Party and I gurantee you will you have heard of them if you love new music.
Glassjaw differ a lot from the other two, and their unique brand of angry post-hardcore influenced just about everything and everyone who class themselves as hardcore.
January 13th, 2008 at 9:14 pm
The three gigs i am filled with pure exitement about in 2008 kicks off with a dose of Morrissey at the london roundhouse which i do believe will be truly epic as a homecoming and as a first timer in the morrissey concert stakes i have high hopes and i am sure i will not be disappointed. The second is that cockney princess kate nash whom i am seeing at the manchester apollo. This is personally a very relevent gig to go to as my sister is the spitting image of her and can do one hell of an impression .Also foals which are one hell of a sensation for me at the minute . Wow

January 14th, 2008 at 7:33 am
I'm looking forward to satisfying my guilty pop music pleasures and seeing lots of classics 90s ladies this year. Firstly Spice Girls, who I went to see on their first tour when I was 10, with my Mum! Secondly Kylie. In there words of the lady herself, Wow wow wow! And finally hopefully Bjork! Who I never managed to see in the 90s!
January 14th, 2008 at 9:13 am
I can't wait for Seasick Steve at the ABC in Glasvegas later this month. i saw him last summer at Connect, and he blew me away. kind of caught me unawares. who knew i was such a fan of 3-string guitar, hobo-blues? also, the ABC is a great venue. they have an impressive glitterball. I can't wait for Bjork either. my, my, is there really ANYTHING on the planet even remotely like her? she's made of a mad energy that continually fascinates me. i think calling her a merely a musician doesn't really do her creativity any justice. the Apollo rocks as a venue, too. the third gig, i'm looking forward to? hmmm, its hard to choose. i guess i'll say Nouvelle Vague. i've not seen them before. i find them aurally charming and so i hope that the live/visual thing will leave me suitably impressed. this is at the Queens Hall which is kind of sedate, (i have it on good authority that Megadeth played there in the 80's and everyone was made to sit through the entire gig. can you imnagine?!). let's see how that works out for me.
January 14th, 2008 at 9:50 am
I am most looking forward to Radiohead, the Kooks, and seeing The Mighty Boosh live. 2008 is gonna be awesome. Also Glastonbury! Yay.
January 14th, 2008 at 10:15 am
I just found out Im expecting! So my babies musical education starts soon- within a few months he/she will be able to hear everything going on around me. The first band Im looking forward to is Bruce Springsteen ( I bought tickets secretly for my husband- hes a huge fan, cant wait to see his face when I show them to him!) Secondly, Radiohead which doesnt require much of an explanation!Also they're playing at Victoria Park in the summer. What could be more beautiful than Radiohead, playing in the park in the summer? And lastly Bjork would be unreal. The best female atrist by far!
January 14th, 2008 at 10:16 am
I am looking forward to Justice, because i love to dance. Hot Chip, because me and my fella love them. And Bjork (hopefully), as she is amazing and i have loved her since i were wee.
January 14th, 2008 at 1:41 pm
I am most looking forward to Radiohead, Foo Fighters and Linkin Park, shame I am so old really.
January 14th, 2008 at 3:06 pm
Can't wait for Radiohead in Manchester, I've seen them many times and their shows are always awe-inspiring. Sparks in Islington will be incredible–they're unique! And Bjork live is an amazing experience; I was lucky enough to see her at Glastonbury '07 and I'm desperate to see her again!
January 14th, 2008 at 3:36 pm
My most exciting three gigs in 2008 have got to be RADIOHEAD at the Manchester Cricket Ground (coz the In Rainbows material is some of their best since OK Computer!), BON JOVI (coz I'm gonna score a sack-load of brownie points for accompanying my girlfriend there when they play in Southampton), and definitely BJORK (coz I love every album since her Sugarcube days and to see her live would be a defining moment!).

January 14th, 2008 at 4:58 pm
I'm looking forward to Buena Vista Social Club playing in Sheffield in May – there's only a few of the original line up left but it'll still be awesome! The infamous album really inspired me years ago when I first heard it, and still does now. Also am looking forward to the Mars Volta in March – I've seen them once before and it was mesmerising.
January 14th, 2008 at 10:19 pm
If I lived in UK I
January 15th, 2008 at 1:36 am
Radiohead at Victoria Park this summer as I saw them in 2006 at the Hammersmith Apollo and they were mesmerising! Neil Young as I've never seen him live and it's a dream come true and Bjork of course if I win these tickets, I've tried to see her 4 times unsuccessfully so that would be another dream come true if I got to see her finally! Also can't wait for Glastonbury 2008!! xxx
January 15th, 2008 at 12:34 pm
The Dillinger Escape Plan- because they can make even the most disjointed screeching and blastbeats into something melodic.
Smashing Pumpkins- Are they still good? Who knows, I don't. I'd like to know.
Boxcutter- Cos he makes dubstep complicated but not difficult.
January 15th, 2008 at 1:44 pm
Bjork of course for her amazing natural brilliance, the return of Michael Jackson and his promised live shows which are guaranteed to be amazing, and the awaited Alanis Morissette return with her incredible live performances. All three will be guaranteed brilliance !!!
January 15th, 2008 at 3:30 pm
I have a dream: to se my favourite artists live. They are Prodigy, Bjork and Portishead. I've already saw Prodigy, now its time for my Icelandic Queen and Beth Gibbons & co. It semms like I will do that in 2008
. After that I can die, coz I will die happy.
January 15th, 2008 at 4:45 pm
I'm looking forward to Radiohead in Victoria park (because I have a ticket!!), Bjork in Hammersmith (because I'm hoping to win a ticket!!!) and Neil Young (just because).
January 15th, 2008 at 5:27 pm
I can't wait for The Cure, Bjork, and most of all Radiohead at victoria park.. if i manage to go to all three this year, I can die a happy man.
January 15th, 2008 at 5:27 pm
I can't wait for The Cure, Bjork, and most of all Radiohead at victoria park.. if i manage to go to any of them this year, I'll die a happy man.
January 15th, 2008 at 5:58 pm
bjork, obviously. and for an additional 3:
my bloody valentine, smashing pumpkins, and morrissey, all for purely college nostalgia reasons and amazement that they are still, or again, making music.
January 15th, 2008 at 6:05 pm
the three gigs i'm looking forward to participate in this year are: Fiona Apple, Tori Amos and Bjork
January 15th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
The Kissaway Trail. I love the album, which is apparently nothing on their live show. Looking forward to that. Final Fantasy. He can hold an audience with just a violin and a loop pedal and arranged the strings on Arcade Fire's funeral (my favourite record) and Radiohead. Well it's radiohead. They pushed boundaries with Kid A (second favourite record) and remained hugely succesful.
And Bjork..if you guys help me out.
January 15th, 2008 at 7:07 pm
1) KT TUNSTALL
2) RADIOHEAD
3) hopefully BJORK!
January 15th, 2008 at 7:15 pm
My three gigs that i'm really pumping for in 2008 are Gomez, Radiohead and Death Cab For Cutie. I haven't seen Gomez since 2004 and am gaging to see em again, as for Radiohead, well its been ten years of wishing, but this year i'll seem the best band playing, and Death Cab will be brilliant.
January 15th, 2008 at 10:14 pm
The three gigs I am looking forward are Bjork, Roni Size and Radiohead. I have never seen them live. I would love to hear Bjork live, because she is such a great inspiration for me:) It would be interesting to hear Radiohead and Roni Size too, because they are great artists.
January 16th, 2008 at 5:51 am
Three gigs I'm looking forward to are, 1. Big Day Out in Australia – luckily my holiday here has managed to overlap and I get to see Rage Against the Machine who I thought I'd never get to see, 2. Radiohead – after being so disappointed missing out on tickets last year, and 3. The Patty Winters Show, an upcoming London band.
January 16th, 2008 at 10:53 am
I am most looking forward to the lovely Bjork, of course, as well as The Cure (who I just saw in Aus, but can't get enough of) and Underworld, just for old time's sake.
January 16th, 2008 at 11:28 am
Cant physically wait to see Radiohead this year; saw them at Glastonbury 2003 and they blew me away! Im writing my Dissertation on Glastonbury festival, so that would be the mother of all gigs, as ive been writing about it for what seems like an eternity! Last but by no means least, the queen bee that is Bjork if i won, as i couldnt get to Glastonbury last year to see her! xx
January 16th, 2008 at 1:20 pm
Managed to get Radiohead tickets, so yup, they are up there in my most anticipated gig. Secondly, it would probably be the Bays, small band that really kick ass. And last but not least, obviously it has to be Lady Bjork. I saw her in Paris last year, and even though the airline lost my all my luggage and I had no clothes, toiletries, make up and hardly any money, she made it all worth it! Please please please give me tickets to see her again, this time in fresh clothes!
January 16th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
The gigs I'm most looking forward to in 2008 are;
1; POLYSICS!! because they are one of my favourite bands but they rarely ever tour in the UK and i've been meaning to see them, they look like such such a great band to see live and the energy that Hiro has is bound to give a great show.
2; Wishbone Ash! because I have a weakness for prog and Wishbone Ash are one of my favourites. Even though most of the original members are depleted and all that is left of the original line up is Andy Powell I still think it would be great to hear my favourite tracks live and just seeing the creative genius Andy Powell powell will be enough to compensate for the loss.
3; BJORK! because she has been around for a long time and one of mine and my family's favourite artists i was bought up listening to Debut and Vespertine, if i can't ever think of what to listen to I know I can put on Debut and it will be a winner. Bjork is definately on my hit-list for seeing live.
January 16th, 2008 at 5:16 pm
1. Bjork, obviously..but also because she was so awesome at Glastonbury, i just have to see her again!
2. Hot Chip – because they are toe tapping geniuses, and they are coming to my hometown. Woohoo!
3. Fourtet at the next ATP party..because they have always been top of my 'want to see list' and i love the ATP parties!
January 16th, 2008 at 5:18 pm
Hi, Gigs I'm most looking forward to are Radiohead, The Smashing Pumpkins and of coarse Bjork. I have wanted to see Bjork play for many years now. Would love to win ticket.
Thanks
Jasmine
January 16th, 2008 at 5:49 pm
I would love to see Bjork, I will have just given birth to my first child and it would be a fab night out to celebrate!!! I am also looking forward to seeing Radiohead and PJ Harvey..x
January 16th, 2008 at 7:05 pm
I am looking forward to Siouxsie, My bloody Valentine and Radiohead.
January 16th, 2008 at 9:24 pm
Bjork, Bjork and Bjork. With some more Bjork if possible.
January 16th, 2008 at 9:39 pm
Blondie,Blondie,and Blondie.I am so hoping and hopefully looking forward to a 30th anniaversary (Parallel Lines)tour from my fave group of all time.Oh and thanks Seatwave for my excellent gig to see Amy Winehouse in Newcastle.
Many many thanks.
Mark.
January 16th, 2008 at 11:06 pm
I am really looking forward to seeing Bjork, she's amazing. Foo Fighters and Kylie.
January 17th, 2008 at 2:27 am
Bjork, My bloody Valentine & Radiohead. Massive!
January 17th, 2008 at 9:48 am
The 3 gigs i'm most looking forward to are: 1. Hot Chip – I love their kooky image and the electronic sound they create. 2. JUSTICE – They have such an immense electro sound, reminiscent of Daft Punk who are one of my favourite bands. 3. Portishead – This is not an official gig, but more like wishful thinking. If Portishead tour this year I will definately be going. It would be a dream come true.
January 17th, 2008 at 10:14 am
Bjork, Hot Chip, and Bestival, don't know yet who's playing this time but can't wait anyway!
January 17th, 2008 at 10:42 am
three (very different) gigs im looking forward to.dillinger escape plan in bristol, bjork and the possibility of rage against the machine at reading festival!!!
January 17th, 2008 at 11:25 am
3 gigs (so far) for 2008 are:
James – April 08 – One of the best UK bands (and my personal favourite) are back and going on tour – it's a “must be there” for me.
Kylie – July 08 – she rocks and always puts on a good show. Never disappoints..
Chemical Brothers – if you have ever been to one of their gigs you'll understand why it's on the list – if not – get yourself to the Olympia in August and see for yourself
January 17th, 2008 at 1:24 pm
1. Kylie – this will fill the gap that Madonna will leave for not touring this year. with her fun pop madness and great visuals! She is no artist but she's fantastic for what she is and puts on a fun and exciting show.
2. Goldfrapp – These guys are touring their new album Seventh Tree in the US and will no doubt come to the UK. The album is amazing. I have no words to describe it.. and their live performances are almost more superior to their studio recordings. Alison's voice is like honey!
3. Bjork of course! I have all her live dvds and live recordings and it would be an absolute dream to finally see her live! And this year we can. to be part of this massive world tour is so exciting!
January 17th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
The 3 gigs I am most looking forward to are: Hot Chip who have an amazing sound and I'm sure would have a great atmosphere live; Gogol Bordello- I've missed seeing them live twice due to exams, but I really want to experience their awesome two albums live complete with what I've heard is a stunning performance. The third gig I would love to see is Bjork, whose music never fails to make me happy. Thanks!
January 17th, 2008 at 3:41 pm
There are so many I'm going to already this year but the three I guess I'm most looking forward to are. Korn at Brixton Academy, Reel Big Fish at Astoria and Girls Aloud at the O2
)
January 17th, 2008 at 7:54 pm
Smashing Pumpkins – to remind me of the good old days
Sophie Ellis-Bextor – for some out and out fun tunes
Turin Brakes – to listen to enviously wishing i could write and sing like them
January 17th, 2008 at 8:19 pm
No particular order.
Reverend and the Makers, Smashing Pumpkins and My Bloody Valentine. Makes up for being coerced into seeing Celine Dion and Boyzone I guess :/
January 17th, 2008 at 11:49 pm
Katie Melua really looking forward to her tour.
January 18th, 2008 at 1:09 am

January 18th, 2008 at 1:14 am
at a days notice i was looking forward to the radiohead suprise performance on brick lane. with thom yorke being one of my all time heros and it being a scenario i have dreamt of happening since i can remember, but as it goes i couldnt get there.
am looking forward to them playing in the summer and have got my tickets, just a shame that they only seem to be playing large venues nowadays. i feel really sorry for anyone who hasnt seen them at a small show. there is something magical about them.
and thirdly, so looking forward to underworld. controversial i know, but the last time i saw them during the beaucoup fish times was just wonderful. such atmosphere and a really good feeling to teh whole thing. will be hoping that the crowd is as into it as they were before.
January 18th, 2008 at 9:31 am
Looking for to seeing Bjork because she's so eclectic and different, The Cure because they're classic and amazing and the Foo Fighters because I missed a chance to see them live before and I really regret it
January 18th, 2008 at 11:09 am
OH my goodness, bjork of course! i really want to see her, esp as this gig is the day after mt 21st! mmm.im thinking kd.lang is gonna be pretty amazing, and the mighty boosh if that counts as a gig? hey they do some singing! its gonna be friggin superb.
January 18th, 2008 at 11:28 am
The three gigs that I'm really looking forward to seeing this year are Smashing Pumpkins at the O2 Arena, My Bloody Valentine at the Roundhouse and Bjork! When MBV and Smashing Pumpkins split up I never thought I'd get a chance to see them live, but thank god fro reunions!! As for Bjork, i saw her at a festival last year and it was AMAZING, but I'd love to see her again in an indoor venue!
January 18th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
Bjork, Bjork, Bjork. so i guess i need to win the tickets then!!
; )
January 18th, 2008 at 6:35 pm
Can't wait to see Radiohead, Alicia Keys, PJ Harvey and some good summer music festival would be great too.
January 18th, 2008 at 10:36 pm
well Bjork being first as the woman is a musical genius.. then the radiohead 'in rainbows' tour is a very close second, and smashing pumpkins comes in third
January 19th, 2008 at 10:19 am
Looking forward to The Cure, Foo Fighters and Radiohead.
But seriously want some live Bjork in my life. She started my steady decline into mental strangeness.
January 19th, 2008 at 10:28 am
This year I have tickets to see Dizzee Rascal, Scratch Perverts and Unkle!
January 19th, 2008 at 12:19 pm
im most looking forward to seeing RADIOHEAD because i think although they have been together for over 15 years they are still the best band in the world by a long shot. im also looking forward to MY BLOODY VALENTINE because i have wanted to see them for years and years and never dreamed that they would re-form. the last band i am looking forward to seeing is ENABLERS a post rock band from america who have a small fan base over here even though they deserve a much bigger one. their gigs are intense and they are one of the most interesting bands ive been live in a very long time.
January 19th, 2008 at 2:38 pm
Radiohead because they are the flaming lips catpower becaese F\IT
January 19th, 2008 at 4:10 pm
ill be looking forward to seeing Neil Young in March! He's a legend! Whoop Whoop! Bjork tickets would be much appreciated! thanks, Rob
January 19th, 2008 at 9:44 pm
Most looking forward to
My Bloody Valentine – do I need to say anything other than they are brilliant and it's probably my only chance to see them.
Bjork – she can make you feel any emotion, and I would do anything to see her. She is talent.
Portishead – I have waited a while to see them, I'd better make it, they grab you.
I moved 12000 miles away from home to see these shows and more this year. That's how much I'm looking forward to them haha.
January 19th, 2008 at 10:49 pm
bruce springsteen, the eagles, and bjork cos i know most of their songs by heart!
January 20th, 2008 at 3:57 pm
Bjork, Explosions In The Sky, Radiohead because they are straight up MAGICAL!
January 20th, 2008 at 6:26 pm
I can't wait to see The Smashing Pumpkins, The Cure (though I don't have enough money for the tickets sadly so not sure about that yet
*cry*) and best of all BJORK! I have been a fan for ages but have never actually managed to see her! My boyfriend called me while she was on at Roskilde festival the other year so I could hear her and I almost died of jealousy! Hopefully this year will be THE year I will finally see her! *fingers and toes crossed*
January 20th, 2008 at 7:26 pm
well Radiohead because they're the best band in the world and I absolutely love the latest album, all the free online things they are doing. Then Foo Fighters because I can't wait to see another band that I love playing there after Muse played their best gig ever. And of course bjork cause I can't wait to see what dresses she's going to wear.
January 21st, 2008 at 8:05 am
This year i would LOVE to see Martha Wainwright once she relases her new album in the spring, also Robots in Disguise on the 06th of Feb at the Barfly in Cambridge.I will also do almost anything to see tori amos again. Obviously Bjork would be on that top three if i win the tickets. PLEASE!!!!
January 21st, 2008 at 10:14 am
Foo Fighters, Smashing Pumpkins, The Eels. 3 bands I love but have never seen live before. Would love to see Bjork also since I missed her in concert around 1996 when I was forced to go to an Auntie's engagement party instead. Gah!!
January 21st, 2008 at 4:36 pm
(Other than Bjork) Would really like to see Goldfrapp (so looking forward to their new album), Mark Ronson would be great and a chance to see Beck would be perfect!(an album should be due this year I think)
January 21st, 2008 at 6:16 pm
Top 3 apart from this bjork gig that youll be giving me the tickets to
are as follows:
Dillinger escape plan – astoria 2 23rd feb
Glassjaw at give it a name or hopefully one of the late notice intimate gigs they will maybe do while theyre here..
Glade & reading festival.
cheers
January 21st, 2008 at 8:09 pm
My 3 gigs? It's all about Justice & Chemical Brothers for mindblowing eletro, followed by Rage finally coming back to the UK, opening with Killing in the Name Of. It will happen!
January 22nd, 2008 at 10:32 am
Golgol Bordello, because i missed them at last years Oxygen Festival.
U.N.K.L.E. at Brixton because i've only seen Lavelle on his own never the live set.
Radiohead, because i tried in vain to get into their secret gig last week without the dedication to stand for 10 hours.
January 22nd, 2008 at 11:33 am
The three gigs I would love to see this year are The Smashing Pumpkins- because I've never had an opportunity to see them before, Nine inch nails- if and when they tour next and Bat for lashes if I can manage it. Seeing Bjork though would be amazing, a once in a life time opportunity.
January 22nd, 2008 at 11:52 am
There are four massive musical influences in my life. Smashing Pumpkins, psychedelic rocket rock that just leaves your mouth ajar – gonna see those guyz @ the O2 in Febuary. Queens of the Stone Age, grinding desert riffs you just can't help but tap your foot to – I'll be there in March @ the Newcastle Acadamy. Radiohead, chameleonic melancholic electro superband – roll on June. Just the one missing for a full house, Bjork – the first and favorite, legendary mavrick musical virtuoso & one woman multi-genre. Curse my limited student funds, coz to see her live..now that would be a good year
January 22nd, 2008 at 8:12 pm
Morrissey (tomorrow)
British Sea Power (their first album has possibly the best guitar pop album in recent years)
ATP (with sunset rubdown, the national)
I want to marry bjork so please give me some tickets to I can approach her with the proposition.
January 22nd, 2008 at 9:13 pm
The Flashbulb, Squarepusher, Chas And Dave. All at Bangface weekender. Yes. Let's av it!
January 22nd, 2008 at 9:17 pm
I am most looking forward to Radiohead cause they are the most amazing specimens in the universe, Bjork because i think she'll blow my socks off and i'd give anything to hear Play Dead live. And last but certainly not least Foo Fighters because they are my all time favourite band. I even have the two F's tattooed on my back.
So yeah, there's my plee.
Make my year. x
January 22nd, 2008 at 9:32 pm
1) Reuben, sheer energy and a perfect way to end my exams.
2) Foo Fighters, 5am start to the day, front row (hopefully), should be EPIC
3) Reading festival!!! 2nd year in a row, hopefully the line up will be as good as this year, and I'll have as much fun!
January 23rd, 2008 at 7:01 am
The gigs I am most looking forward to this year are The Go Team, Pearl Jam and Neil Young. And hopefully even better than all those will be Bjork!
January 23rd, 2008 at 2:22 pm
If I could see anyone it would be Bjork, Radiohead and Queens of the Stoneage because they are the only musicians I wouldnt mind standing around for 2 hours plus being mesmerized by their outstanding lyrics and amazing musical capabilities. To me its all about conscious music, which is something these three artists have always had.
January 23rd, 2008 at 9:41 pm
Sorry, What i should have said in my first comment was Blondie , Blondie, and Bjork.
I may not be Bjork`s number 1 fan but there is something magical in what she does and i like it.
January 23rd, 2008 at 9:55 pm
Helloooo,the band/person i would like to most see is Bjork,Bjork,Bjork,please give me the god dam tickets!would also like to radiohead, foo fighters and queens of the stoneage,they are amazing live X
January 24th, 2008 at 3:23 am
Hi! Thanks for opening up an opportunity for us to win tickets to see Bjork as I'm a great fan of her and she is absolutely talented and inspiring and to experience her fantastic show will be a wonderful thing for me
Beside Bjork, I'm also looking forward for our beautiful treasure, Kylie Minogue as she is absolutely amazing, inspiring and wonderful. Spice Girls gig will be the next on my list because I always love them and never got any chance to see them on stage or in real life person before they separated for a while and now that they are back together, I will never want to miss a chance to see them. Given this chance to win tickets, thanks to you, will be a great and wonderful thing for me and also a suprise treat for my best buddy. Thank you again
January 24th, 2008 at 8:21 am
i will wet my pants if i get to see bjork, naturally but i think I have to go see MIA too because she is like a modern day Kate Bush- ACE! Seeing modest mouse again would be totally kick ass, along with Bestival and ATP festival I should be set
January 24th, 2008 at 8:37 am
Its quite straight forward really. Portishead (I was too young when they last toured in the UK and cant wait for the new album), Alison Krauss & Robert Plant (Two heros of mine together – who would've ever guessed it) and Bjork (My all time favorite female artist, what more can you say). If my third choice must be someone other than the great woan herself then it would have to be Mighty Boosh (Got tickets to Bournemouth – I had'nt discovered them when they last toured so this will be a highlight of 2008)
January 24th, 2008 at 9:14 am
I am sooooh looking forward to: THE BREEDERS (Glasgow ABC), MY BLOODY VALENTINE(Glasgow Barrowland) and BJORK (if I win tickets!!!). My fingers & toes are crossed.
Thanks
January 24th, 2008 at 10:02 am
For me it has to be Portishead, Kylie and Radiohead
January 24th, 2008 at 10:09 am
Gotta respect the classics! I'll be at Bruce Springsteen, the Eagles. and Bjork!
January 24th, 2008 at 11:50 am
The three gigs I'm most looking forward to this year are: 1) Foo Fighters. They are awesome live. 2) Cat Power. Love the album, can't wait for the live show. 3) Bjork. She's just fantastic. First saw her 12 years ago at Wembley when she was supported by Unun and Goldie. It was an fantastic show
January 24th, 2008 at 11:57 am
I'm hoping to see Radiohead in the summer, as I've always wanted to see them live and know it would be amazing.also ATP for some emo fun, and Queens of the Stone Age because they rock! But to see Bjork would be my absolute highlight of the year, I love her amazing voice, unique songs and crazy personality!
January 24th, 2008 at 4:07 pm
The Three Bands I am most looking forward to this year are My Bloody Valentine, Bjork (If I get tickets!) and Radiohead! Would be my ultimate year in exceptional music if I saw these 3!
Rich
January 24th, 2008 at 7:18 pm
my three most looked forward to gigs are:
Goldfrapp – they always sound stunning live and the new album will be interesting to hear live!
Portishead – just gota see these live.
and finally, Neil Young!
January 24th, 2008 at 9:52 pm
The 3 gigs I'm looking forward to most is of course Glasto (always a-mazing!) Reading and I can't wait to catch the Klaxons cause I would die to see them.
January 25th, 2008 at 11:47 am
Bjork is the big one for me as she was just incredible the first time I saw her live far too many years ago to think of. Achieved a teenage dream to see Bauhaus recently, so Bjork is the only other one that I really would sell a kidney for!
Also keen to see VAST in April and would love to see Nine Inch Nails in the US later in the year.
January 25th, 2008 at 1:04 pm
I am so looking forward to see the following artists: Radiohead, Bjork and Portishead. Why? Because Radiohead marked the apex of my adolescence and the step they took on music industry with In Rainbow was pure genius. Bjork because she is an angelical elf whose world is peopled with quirky childhood recollection; and Portishead because, come on, they used to be among the best bands ever: they invented Bristol trip hop and inspired billions of artists!
January 25th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
i am most looking forward to seeing Mighty Boosh, Dirty Dancing and Backstreet Boys.
I am addicted to the craziness of vince; and the other two just make me all nostalgic!
January 25th, 2008 at 5:40 pm
Lightspeed Champion- Simply, 2008 will be the year of Lightspeed. A sweet, original sound that captured my heart straight away.
The Cure- The best band to ever exist.EVER. Wowed me as a young teen and will continue to do so forever. Plus, their live sets are outstanding.
Gary Numan- Guilty pleasure anyone?
Admittedly, Mr Numan would be pushed aside if i could afford tickets for Bjork. She leaves me inspired.
January 25th, 2008 at 6:47 pm
the 3 gigs im most looking forward to are bjork, bat for lashes and the mighty boosh. Bjork is my favourite artist and the mighty boosh are just hilarious.
January 26th, 2008 at 3:02 am
I am most looking forward to Radiohead because I think they're the best band in the world. I saw them play once before and they're excellent live – cannot wait! I'm also looking forward to seeing Portishead live in April because I haven't seen them before and I love their unique sound. If I had tickets to see Bjork I would be the happiest person in the world because she is an inspirational musician and performer, I want to be her! And I haven't seen her live before so would probably cry (for joy, obviously) if I got the chance to see her.
January 26th, 2008 at 1:32 pm
1. Portishead – legendary band touring for the first time in 10 years (with a their first new album in 11 years)
2. Goldfrapp – can't wait to see how they will play their new “folk” material (full orchestra maybe?)
3. Madonna – rumored half-centenary tour (and she always puts out a great show)
January 26th, 2008 at 7:38 pm
Radiohead, Portishead and hopefully Bjork, eh?
January 27th, 2008 at 11:02 am
1 – Portishead, 2 = Lightspeed Champion, 3 = Radiohead
Make my year and add Bjork to the list!
January 27th, 2008 at 5:54 pm
The three concerts i'm looking forward to the most are Animal Collective, Radiohead and PJ Harvey. And Bjork too, hopefully.
January 27th, 2008 at 8:19 pm
The 3 gigs I am looking forward to in 2008 are: Radiohead, The Presets and Roisin Murphy. 2008 looks set to be an amazing year for music!
January 27th, 2008 at 9:07 pm
1/Radiohead at Victoria Park in June (need i say more?) – okay, coz I'll be going with one of my best mates who's a legend and got me the gig tix as a bday gift, it'll be the height of summer, and well, coz it's radiohead.nuffsaid.
2/Leonard Cohen who is 'rumoured to be touring europe for the first time in 15yrs' this year – i will swim the channel if i have to
3/Bjork coz it should be a birth right that everyone gets to see her play live and i never have.:(
January 28th, 2008 at 12:31 am
Bjork at Plymouth Pavilions. Wow, a world class act coming to the Westcountry – hurrah?! She's the most innovative music-maker in the business! I had tickets to see her in 1994 but sadly had to let them go due to university exams – hardly rock n' roll – and have been regretting it ever since! Feist at the Royal Albert. An exquisite voice in sumptuous surroundings!
Radiohead in Victoria Park. I am just willing them to bring back the brilliant and arresting tunes that make them the UK's best band – ever?!
Mabel
January 28th, 2008 at 11:09 am
My three gigs im going to this year are The bands that made me the moody teenager i was and bring the most memorys Especially Bjork as i went to see her at the tender age of 13. But as I have not got the ticket yet My gigs this year are Portishead, Pj Harvey, and radiohead. Boy i was a emotional teenager locked away in my room!!!
January 28th, 2008 at 1:31 pm
I'm probably most looking to Bruce Springsteen at the Emirates Stadium. I missed the chance to see him at the O2 so catching the Emirates show will be fantastic. Then maybe Portishead at Brixton because their music is so deep and beautiful (plus they never seemingly tour!) Finally The Cure at Wembley arena because their music is so epic; whilst Disintegration is probably my favourite album of all time.
January 28th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
This year – Bjork (never had the chance before and the lady's a legend) Gogol Bordello (the best and maddest gig atmosphere ever) Liza Minnelli (because it would be the most surreal evening ever!)
January 28th, 2008 at 8:49 pm
I am going to see Sia, because she's such a funny little minx with a great pair of lungs, and her shows are just a blast; Bjork obviously, been a big fan for years and would love to see her live; also Sinead O connor – I love my female artists!
January 29th, 2008 at 9:52 am
I am most looking forward to Coachella Festival in Palm Springs, California (does it count as a gig???) as I saw Bjork there last year and she was AMAZING and I'd love to see her again. Radiohead in London is also top on the list of gigs to look forward to and finally I'm going to say Bat for Lashes. I discovered her only this weekend and loved her CD and think she'll be interesting to see live.
January 29th, 2008 at 10:39 am
Westlife, Celine Dion and ooohmygod!!! BJORK!!!!
January 29th, 2008 at 11:01 am
Mika, The Mighty Boosh, Bjork! They're all great, alternative and crazy.. jut like me!
January 29th, 2008 at 1:01 pm
Radiohead because I 'go to sleep' and have a 'nice dream' that 'All I need' to 'sail to the moon' is 'just' to be 'optimistic' and seeing radiohead will make me 'fitter happier'.
Gogol Bordello because it is 'Not a crime' to love 'immigrant punk' and I might even 'start wearing purple' because I love the 'ultimate forces of victory'.
Bjork becuase 'All is full of love' and the 'pleasure is all mine' with Bjorks ethereal voice theres no 'possibly maybe' she is 'my favourite thing'.
January 29th, 2008 at 5:16 pm
It can only be *B*J*O*R*K*,
radioHEAD,
und *Animal Collective*.
becuz I have not seen any of them live!
Would be a dream come tru
(PortisHEAD a groovy bonus) xxxx
January 29th, 2008 at 7:50 pm
My Bloody Valentine, Bloc Weekend & Jeffrey Lewis whenever he plays Manchester again – or Bjork if I win
January 29th, 2008 at 10:19 pm
I'm looking forward to ..Foals, amazing and up and coming.. Dillinger Escape Plan – first live band I ever saw when I was a nipper.. and the Hives because they're unashamedly obnoxious. and God I want to see Bjork.
January 29th, 2008 at 11:27 pm
i would love to see bjork, bat for lashes and radiohead!
January 29th, 2008 at 11:30 pm
i really want to see Marilyn Manson, and M.I.A and the Arcade Fire
January 30th, 2008 at 11:01 am
Three Most Needed Gigs To Seee. Devendra Banhart as his music is love,
Nine Inch Nails as there music is Hate. And Supergrass Just Cause' there great!
January 30th, 2008 at 12:28 pm
I'm looking forward to Portishead! Legend! and Bjork and Goldfrapp.
January 30th, 2008 at 12:31 pm
Bjork, Radiohead & Portishead. all such great bands!
January 30th, 2008 at 11:24 pm
Bjork for the sheer amazingness of actually getting to see her LIVE and for just being Bjork
Jane Birken because she is one of the most beautiful people that has ever lived and I ADORE her
and Blah Blah Blah's first proper tour gig . FINALLY!
January 31st, 2008 at 9:26 am
I'm most looking forward to seeing Goldfrapp, Foals and Bjork.
January 31st, 2008 at 11:08 am
The three gigs I'm looking forward to most in 2008 are:
1) F*ck Buttons in Brighton in a couple of weeks, because they not only manage to have the best name in modern music, but are getting better, faster, than anyone else as well. What do they sound like? Like tombstoning in space.
2) Yelle, in London, because I don't know what she's saying, but I like what it does to my hips and ass.
3) Oh and so much more! The End of the Road Festival? Maybe Sonar in Barcelona? And if those don't count as a gig, then I'll go with Bjork, in London, because I AM FATED TO WIN THESE TICKETS.
Thank you.
January 31st, 2008 at 11:21 am
The three gigs I'm looking forward to most in 2008 are Dionysos, french band, in april too in France, Radiohead, and the Kooks at the Printemps de Bourges festival in France. And of course Bjork is above all of those.
Thank you
January 31st, 2008 at 3:50 pm
Hmmm, this year i'm looking forward to seeing Coheed & Cambria, Polysics and The Eleven 37s!
January 31st, 2008 at 4:50 pm
I am looking forward to seeing more from a band called Tankus the Henge.
You only have to see them once to be hooked. mesmorizing and so much fun. The most entertaining band for a long time. Hope they make it big! Their gigs are small and intimate, always the best!!

Bjork if I win the tickets, Portishead and The Dillinger Escape Plan
February 1st, 2008 at 10:39 am
portishead because they make beautiful music. also gary numan in march because he is a 80s legend! i am obsessed with bjork!
February 1st, 2008 at 11:16 am
Bjork has always been someone I wanted to see live so I will be ecstatic to see her this year! (Last time I had tickets in Cape Town, her show was cancelled and I was left in a depression!). Secondly I would love to see The Cure as have been a fan for years. Finally I'd be very happy to see the Smashing Pumpkins -good to see them together and touring!

Radiohead- I was addicted to Radiohead for 6 months solid 5 years ago. I refused to listen to anything else. And now, for the first time ever, I'll get to see them play
Portishead- They expanded my world. Without their music I wouldn't have discovered the music that has helped make me the person I am today. This is also the first time I will see them play
Ween- Another first time for me. I've been hooked on Chocolate & Cheese since the first listen. Weird and wonderful, Dean and Gene Ween will have me pushing the little daisies

portishead, bjork, radiohead
February 1st, 2008 at 9:12 pm

February 2nd, 2008 at 10:00 am
Am licking my lips at the prospect of seeing Radiohead in June. Am wetting my pants at the prospect of Bat For Lashes. Am doing cart wheels about Foo Fighters.
February 2nd, 2008 at 2:18 pm
Am counting the days til the Mars Volta should be amazing, also eels will be a treat and I'd be very excited about Bjork if i won a couple of tickets!
February 2nd, 2008 at 10:17 pm
Looking forward to seeing paramore, cos they are awsome and Hailey has energy like no other performer. Foo Fighters, real quality rock and Bjork. Her music is so inspiring!
February 3rd, 2008 at 10:01 pm
I am most looking forward to seeing:
The Foo Fighters – again! Because every performance they give totally outdoes the last performance they gave!
Bats For Lashes – what can I say??? Never seen them before but everytime I hear their stuff I get a buzz!
Portishead – though I might actually faint from sheer excitement!!
February 4th, 2008 at 3:16 am
the three gigs I am looking forward to are:
bjork she is a musical and visual genuis.
pj harvey is rock n roll
Radiohead because if you don't like them, how do you know if you should like yourself
February 4th, 2008 at 5:27 am
the cure.. who i adore.. Kylie because she's so sweet. and i'd love to see bjork because she is so damn FIERCE
February 5th, 2008 at 6:19 pm
RADIOHEAD; only band that dont make me ashamed of the british music scene
BJORK the only female musician that dont make me ashamed to be female
AUTECHRE still after years kicking the ass of the rest of the electronic music scene.
February 5th, 2008 at 10:09 pm
I am looking forward to the concert of Bjork because she is an important link between me and a special person I'd take with me. the second concert would be our concert, talking place on the train after Bjork gets off the stage. finally the third one would be unofficial under-shower tour gig. As I heard, the pipes do not get corroded if you sing taking shower.
February 6th, 2008 at 12:17 am
i would like to see ben harper, jane birkin and portishead.i hope i win the tickets, cheers

I am most looking forward to Radiohead in June at Victoria Park – they are my extraspecially favourite band and I love outdoor concerts. I am also equally eagerly anticipating seeing the Cure, who are just one of those bands who come alive onstage. I am still searching for the final concert to make 2007 truly stellar. Please make it Bjork!
February 6th, 2008 at 4:27 pm
I am really looking forward to seeing Bjork (please give me the tickets!!!) Haha!
I am looking forward to Bruce Springsteen, he is the boss!
Also Kate Rusby at easter because she is beautiful!!!
Bjork please!!!
February 7th, 2008 at 8:49 am
1. Bjork. This woman is just incredible! With a voice like that and the reviews I've heard about her live performances, I just have to see her perform
2. Smashing Pumpkins. Having never seen them live before, I think I just have to see this legendard band in action.
3. Chimaira. They're playing at the Bierkeller in Bristol. I was amazed when I saw this. I've seen them multiple times before and they put on an incredible show. To see them in such an intimate venue will be mind blowing
February 7th, 2008 at 9:24 am
1) Bjork, naturally otherwise why I be here. 2) VAST in April – never see nthem live. 3) Abney Park in the SS later in the year for steampunky loveliness
February 7th, 2008 at 4:50 pm
Dj Shadow and Cut Chemist at the Roundhouse in their only UK gig for the Hard Sell tour. This is what turntablism is all about.
Public Enemy are coming to Brixton, that is definitely a hotly anticipated gig! And the third? Not so much a gig, but DMZ at Mass on the 1st of March. A dubstep line up to die for.
February 8th, 2008 at 8:11 pm
Goldfrapp – March – This gig is at a cosy venue The Union Chapel and will be such a great atmosphere I imagine. Alison is such an star performer and I love her dancers and costumes too. She'e even inspired Madonna.
Roisin Murphy – March – It will be my first gig at the new Roundhouse which is a great new venue. Roisin has amazing costume changes and puts so much into her performances. I bought standing tickets so i can dance!
Superthriller – Shunt Vaults – Another amazing venue and Superthriller are a fabulous funk band that throw theatre into every performance. This included two of the band stripping naked one night, and another night graffiti spraying lead singer Ben during one song. These guys are great great fun and get everyone dancing. You never quite know what's coming next! I would have added Bjork but I don't have a ticket.yet
February 10th, 2008 at 3:04 am
!
mostly looking forward to the camden crawl [no idea who is even playing yet, will be an AMAZING surprise]. bjork [light of my life, who i've maxed out my student loan and overdraft AGAIN for] and radiohead for old times sake
February 11th, 2008 at 3:56 pm
Apart from Bj
February 12th, 2008 at 12:29 pm
Generally don't go gigging, accept to see my friends perform in southampton, so maybe Patrick, Ben and J
would really love to see Bjork live!
February 22nd, 2008 at 10:32 am
I am really looking forward to see Portishead.
I never saw them live and I cannot wait.
February 25th, 2008 at 5:32 pm
I'm definitely looking forward to Foo Fighters, Tegan and Sara and Bon Jovi.
February 25th, 2008 at 8:57 pm
1. Alicia Keys - adore her voice accompanied by piano
3.Portished – I'm still amazed when dummy is on 
2. Wilki (o2 - 4/04) polish venue - I've been completely in love in them when I was 16-teen!!! Another thing, the event is not much advertised so I'm just wondering how they gonna make it

Radiohead and Portishead, because they rhyme and I cant live without them, and Bjork is surreally perfect and inspiring and her shows have the best ambience EVER.
March 1st, 2008 at 6:10 pm
Im looking forward to seeing Portishead and massive attack.. And if i win this comp then i would be well excited go see Bjork. I have all her albums but havn't been able to see her live yet. Its always hard to get tickets to her gigs.
March 3rd, 2008 at 2:46 pm
Bjork obviously as she's totally crazy and seldom tours. Portishead – can't believe they're back. 'Dummy' still sounds as good as it did when it was released and The Infadels. They're smokin'!
March 3rd, 2008 at 8:59 pm
I'm going to take my mum to see Cliff Richard this year, so looking forward to that to see the smile on her face.also Goldfrapp, if they tour as I'm loving their new sound, Alison has such an amazing voice live, much better than on CD! And the incredible Bjork, if I manage to get hold of the elusive tickets. I've loved her for years but never seen her live. Must figure out feeds etc as I keep missing tickets for gigs..such a technophobe! Sigh. =)
March 6th, 2008 at 9:21 am
Portishead's return is both unexpected and fantastic. After seeing Bjork last year I would love to go again!! And, lastly, the live reutrn of Radiohead, especially after the triumph that was In Rainbows, will make 25th of June a glorious day.
March 6th, 2008 at 3:24 pm
The Young Knives – they are the cheekiest, cleverest and most dashing young men in town
Portishead – they continue to amaze me and suck me in with their hypnotic melodies
Bjork – There's only one Bjork and she's a beauty. Peerless, beautiful music. My ears love her
March 7th, 2008 at 3:03 pm
the 3 gigs I'm most looking forward to are Juno Reactor at The Coronet in Elephant and Castle because they put on such a stunning show check them out on youtube, Nick Cave & The Bad Seends at Hammersmith Appolo because they just superb live (maybe he should do a song with Bjork) & Boy Kill Boy in Tumbridge Wells just because it wil be good fun in a nice small venue with decent emerging talenmt.
March 13th, 2008 at 3:05 pm
I'm really looking forward to seeing Portishead in London and Massive Attack in Istanbul over the summer. I've been listening to them for years and they can still take me to that special place. I would love to see Radiohead too as it's been a couple of years since I last saw them play.
March 30th, 2008 at 4:03 pm
Love the Foo, so cannot wait to see them again, also Bjork cos she is totally unique and amazing. Muse as a great live band always impress.
March 31st, 2008 at 9:27 am
Yazoo, was too young first time around, can't believe they reformed!
April 5th, 2008 at 9:35 pm
Gosh! There
April 6th, 2008 at 9:40 am
I'm most looking forward to seeing Goldfrapp as the new album is amazing and I want to see how the new tracks fit in alongside the old ones at a live gig. Also looking forward to the Long Blondes as I haven't seen them before and Kate Jackson is such an amazing frontwoman. Cat Power should be amazing as well, her voice is really distinctive and one of my favourite artists.
April 8th, 2008 at 10:55 am
Bjork, Bjork, Bjork!!!!!!!
