On tour
Kelvingrove Bandstand and Amphitheatre, Kelvingrove Park, Glasgow, G3 7LH, United Kingdom (August 13)
Yet that tour also reminded everyone that Idlewild are far more than a single classic album — mixing in B-sides like “A Distant History,” early cuts from Captain, and tracks from their ninth LP, Interview Music, with effortless conviction.
Having an anniversary tour when a band’s significant album reached a poignant milestone is hardly an original concept. Still, with more artists doing these anniversary tours, they can be considered modern and part of the zeitgeist.
9pm and Idlewild walk out on stage to a huge cheers, its seem there is a large number in the crowd that have came from Scotland to follow the band on the 3 Irish shows as I heard a few mention they were at last nights Galway show and how smaller the venue was there.
