Tell us: have you seen live music with your family recently?
On the first night in Cardiff, one woman told us about attending a show in the city 31 years ago while she was pregnant with her son, now bringing along his own young daughter; another boy was celebrating his 10th birthday there with his dad, who saw the band with his own father when he was a teenager. There have been similar scenes at Pulp's big shows: when they performed to a hometown crowd at Sheffield's Tramlines last week, there was a noteworthy amount of kids word-perfect on their hits (including, entertainingly, Sorted for E's and Wizz).
So, we'd like to know: have you been on any mass family outings to see live music recently? Who did you see and how did it go? What memories did the shows stir up? What was the significance of seeing them all together? And what did the kids think?

Lily Collins rocks floral print trousers while cradling a huge bouquet of flowers as she continues to film scenes for the fifth season of Emily in Paris
Lily Collins looked stylish as she continued to film scenes for the fifth season of Emily in Paris in the French capital on Monday. The actress, 36, who plays marketing executive Emily Cooper, was spotted cradling a huge bouquet of pink and white flowers outside a florist. She turned heads in a pair of cropped floral print trousers with a red and white knitted top. The star added brown Adidas trainers and toted her belongings in a straw basket bag. Appearing deep in conversation with the shop keeper, Lily also carried a white net bag full of groceries. The upcoming series will see Emily juggle her potential new life in Rome and her past life in Paris. Lily Collins looked stylish as she filmed scenes for the fifth season of Emily in Paris in the French capital on Monday She turned heads in a pair of cropped floral print trousers with a red and white knitted top Emily was left with a decision at the end of series four, as she was offered the position of the lead of the Italian Agence Grateau office. Despite falling in love with Paris and the agency, Emily admitted she was tempted by a new life - with a new man - in Rome. Fans will remember Emily and Gabriel's (Lucas Bravo) romance fell apart after they finally tried to make a go of their relationship after he broke off his relationship with Camille. Following a fake pregnancy scandal, Camille revealed she wasn't actually expecting and Emily and Gabriel tried to work out a romantic future. However, it wasn't meant to be for the star-crossed lovers who were unable to work out their differences and she was pushed into the arms of Marcello, after they met on the slopes of Megève, when she was abandoned at the top of a slope by Gabriel. They crossed paths again at a polo match in Paris and they enjoyed a night out together in the city, which lasted until the following morning when he asked her to come and visit him in Rome. Emily followed her heart and travelled to meet Marcello, where she was also tasked with acquiring his family's business by her boss Sylvie. However, Emily was reluctant to mix business with pleasure. The pair hit a stumbling block when he learned of her plans to try and secure a professional relationship with his family, who owned a luxury cashmere company, but they eventually managed to iron their issues out. At this point, Gabriel had a candid conversation with Alfie (Lucien Laviscount), who urged him to try and win Emily back, despite previously being romantically involved with her himself. But despite dashing to Rome with the hope of reuniting, Emily was nowhere to be seen as she enjoyed her romantic day out with Marcello. Speaking about the upcoming series, Lucas said: 'I think Gabriel realized that he doesn't want to let Emily go so easily, and he might have made a big mistake. 'They certainly had a big fight and a cooling-off period. But I think he realized that by the end of the season, that there's something that he doesn't want to let Emily go. 'I don't know what that means. Doesn't necessarily mean they're going to be together instantly or ever. I don't know, but I think he feels there's unfinished business with the two of them.' However, there is hope for the couple as according to creator Darren Star, the season is not fully moving to Rome. He told Deadline: 'She didn't change her Instagram handle to Emily in Rome. She is working in Rome sometimes. Sylvie's company has an office in Rome. 'Emily's getting that on its feet. I don't necessarily think that it means a permanent — in my mind, it's definitely not a permanent — move to Rome. We're not leaving Paris.' The series is expected to air towards the end of this year, but one of the main characters has revealed they won't be returning. Camille Razat, 31, who plays Camille in the romantic comedy-drama - took to Instagram to reveal the shocking news with an emotional goodbye post after fans fumed at bosses for 'destroying the character'. Camille has played Emily's pal and love rival in the show since the programme hit the streaming service back in 2020. Now, after five years on our screens as Camille, the actress is ready to move on. Sharing various snaps from her time on the show, she wrote: 'After an incredible journey, I've made the decision to step away from Emily in Paris. 'It has been a truly wonderful experience, one filled with growth, creativity, and unforgettable memories. 'I'm deeply grateful to @starmandarren and the entire team at @netflix and @paramountpics for their trust and for giving me the opportunity to bring Camille to life and leaving the door open for her return, as she will always be a part of Emily In Paris world. 'This character has meant a lot to me, and I feel that her storyline has naturally come to an end. It felt like the right moment to explore new horizons.' She added: 'I've recently wrapped two series: Nero for Netflix and the Lost Station Girls for Disney+. I'm also excited to share that I've launched my own production company, @tazar_production. 'We mainly produce music videos and short films for now, but we're currently developing our first feature film, something I'm truly passionate about and excited to grow. 'I leave the show with nothing but love and admiration for the cast, crew, and fans who have supported us along the way. Thank you for the beautiful ride.' Her fans and co-stars rushed to the comments section to share their support. Lily said: 'Love you sister. It's been a wild ride and an absolute pleasure. You're a rockstar. So proud of you.' Philippine Beaulieu added: 'You'll be so missed ma chérie Frenchie!!!' Lucien wrote: 'From day one you've been my rider on this show. Your passion for story telling, your dark sense of humour, your unwavering ability to stay true to yourself, when everything's pushing you in a different direction. 'You're special Camille and I feel absolutely honoured to of been able to dance with you these past seasons. Keep on shining. 'I'm going to miss laughing with you. I'm cheering you on in everything you do.' Emily In Paris premiered on Netflix in October 2020. The synopsis on the streaming service reads: 'New passions. New fashions. New Emily? 'A plucky American marketing whiz spreads her wings in life and love after landing her dream job in Paris.' The show, created by Star, has had 40 episodes run over four seasons. It stars the likes of Lily, Philippine, Ashley Park, Lucas, Samuel Arnold, Bruno Gouery, William Abadie and Lucien.

Tributes to Ozzy Osbourne removed from bench will be handed to family
A sea of flowers, messages and tributes left in Birmingham in memory of heavy metal star Ozzy Osbourne are being moved on Monday before being handed to his family. Thousands of fans have visited Black Sabbath Bench on Broad Street in the musician's home city to lay bouquets, wreaths, posters, balloons, candles and cards since he died at the age of 76 on July 22. On Monday, Birmingham City Council began gathering up the tributes so they can be stored before being handed over to the Osbourne family, who visited the bench on Wednesday to lay their own flowers during a cortege procession. A handful of fans watched on from behind barriers, took photographs and hugged each other as officials in hi-vis jackets collected all the flowers and tributes which had been laid in front of the bench and on the railings behind it. The council said the mementos would be gathered and preserved 'respectfully' in agreement with the rock star's relatives and then stored 'with the utmost care at a secure location, ensuring they are protected and treated with dignity'. The council said: 'In due course, they will be passed on to the Osbourne family, so they may keep them as a lasting reminder of the public's affection and support.' In a statement released through the city council, the Osbourne family said: 'We are deeply moved by the heartfelt tributes that have been placed at the Black Sabbath Bridge and at the Black Sabbath mural on Navigation Street in recent days. 'These expressions of remembrance reflect the profound impact that Ozzy had on the city and its people, as well as fans from around the world – BIRMINGHAM FOREVER!'

Three stunning locations to escape bustling Edinburgh Fringe and Oasis crowds
With Oasis gigs and the Fringe festival filling the city, Edinburgh is lively - but the capital also offers quiet options nearby Edinburgh is set to become the centre of the arts world once again, as festival season begins and the city welcomes millions of visitors. With the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the International Festival in full swing throughout August, the capital will be bursting with performers, tourists and energy. Adding to the buzz, three major Oasis gigs are also scheduled over the coming week or so, ensuring the city will be packed throughout the month. While the festivals bring a vibrant and unforgettable atmosphere, the constant crowds can feel overwhelming at times. Fortunately, the city is full of hidden corners where calm can still be found. For those looking to take a break from the hustle of the Royal Mile and the crowded venues, there are peaceful retreats tucked just beyond the city centre, Scottish Daily Express reports.. Here are three of the best escapes to explore during Edinburgh's busiest season. Dean Village Just a short walk from Princes Street lies one of Edinburgh's most picturesque and peaceful areas. Dean Village, described by VisitScotland as 'one of Edinburgh's best kept secrets', sits along the Water of Leith. Once a separate village centred around grain milling, Dean Village was home to 11 mills, the remnants of which are still visible. It feels far removed from the bustle of the city, despite being less than a mile away. Though now part of Edinburgh, the area retains its old-world charm and is known for its distinctive architecture. At the heart of the village is Well Court, a striking building constructed in the 1880s to house mill workers. Above it all is Dean Bridge, a 30-metre-high structure built by famed engineer Thomas Telford in 1831 to link the growing city from east to west. With leafy paths, riverside walks and plenty of photo opportunities, Dean Village is a tranquil escape just minutes from the festival crowds. Duddingston and Dr Neil's Garden Hidden behind Holyrood Park, the historic village of Duddingston is another peaceful retreat that few tourists ever find. Dating back to the 12th century, the village boasts a loch, nature reserve and a blend of traditional cottages, Georgian villas, and one of the oldest churches in Scotland; Duddingston Kirk. One of the highlights of the area is Dr Neil's Garden, a quiet sanctuary tucked at the foot of Arthur's Seat. Free to enter from 10am until dusk, the garden offers colourful plantings of alpines, primulas, rhododendrons and azaleas, all laid out with care in a space ideal for relaxation and reflection. With Arthur's Seat rising behind it, this spot offers both seclusion and beauty. The nearby Sheep Heid Inn is thought to be one of the oldest pubs in the country, and Mary, Queen of Scots is said to have once been a guest. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Craigmillar Castle While Edinburgh Castle dominates the skyline and draws in huge crowds, few visitors venture just four miles southeast to explore its lesser-known counterpart. Craigmillar Castle, steeped in royal history, offers a quieter but equally dramatic experience. This 15th-century fortress is where Mary, Queen of Scots, took refuge after the murder of her secretary, David Rizzio. It is also linked to the alleged plot to kill her husband, Lord Darnley. The grounds include a unique fishpond shaped like the letter P, and the tower house provides some of the best views of Edinburgh Castle itself. Entry to Craigmillar Castle is £7.50 if booked in advance or £8.50 on the day, a bargain compared to central city prices, and a chance to step into history away from the crowds. See the Historic Environment Scotland website for more information.
