Suede

You'll get rid of them easily.

I agree about standing at gigs generally, but dog man star I reckon is sit-downable. Plus if I'm sat I'm less likely to get roaring drunk and feel crap at work the next day...

Yeah, I'll whack 'em on Gumtree and sell them at face value. If anyone here is interested though, do PM me.

Christ - what a morning! Spent over 200 quid on bloody Suede tickets... I feel faint.

Good point - another Sunday night gig innit?

[russycarps]

Yep sunday. I might just book the monday off and treat it as a saturday. But there is no need to be drunk for this one I guess. I was pretty pissed at paul mccartney and felt a bit of a tit acting up in those surroundings.

Well, there were some right states at Orbital. And that was a Tuesday!

I got the shit kicked out of me by 3 touts when i went to see the MUSE TCT gig. I confronted them on making money of the back of charity called them w*nkers and got pummeled.

Stupid idea in hindsight but it made me so mad!!

Muse more than made up for it however.

[Lubic]

So just where would Suede play at Glasto? High pyramid? Other headline? JP headline? Just can't place them!

Drinking? On a school night?

Heathens.

Pretty sure they weren't just drinking. Shocking I know! And some of them were over 40.

I got lost here, did somebody say it was £55 for The Cure?

At least she realised her mistake now. My mate told us we had standing tickets for something once, but when we got there we had terrible seats instead. Our disappointed faces as we had to trudge all the way upstairs..

Russy, it's time to hand over your internet retard award!

ZMG - you nobber!

While I fully admit to being a nobber, if you read my later posts you'll see I rectified the situation

So... Fancy buying three Gallery Standing tickets for Suede?!

[Osama Jim Laden]

£55 for Suede.

That makes sense, Cure was probably the best gig I've been to.. £55 sounded ridic..

the crown fits her perfectly.

She truly is the queen of the internet drooling simpletons.

[Zoo Music Girl]

Sorry but no. I don't mind suede but definitely not worth travelling to the smoke for. I'd probably check them out at a festival but not even sure I'd fork out to see them locally.

Plus - gallery standing? Some of us have standards thank you very much.

Worth a shot!

Is it time for the "Could Suede Headline The Other Stage?" chat.

Yep, I think they could. Though I'd prefer to see them headline a rammed John Peel tent.

BTW this is my first e-fests post since July! It's taken some good solid Suede chat to draw me back in. I've also picked up tickets for the RAH show.

[bexj]

I think they'd be better as a JP or Park headliner

[Superscally]

Park would be ace.

[glimmers_of_hope]

If they played maybe Suede would be fairly high up on the Pyramid in the same way that Vampire Weekend were last year. Both bands headlined Latitude a few years ago but their stock hasn't really grown (albeit, VW's album was excellent and Suede's is very good).

One of my biggest Glasto disappointments was the last time Suede played (think it was 2004) they were dreadful. It was a early afternoon slot and it sounded like it was being played on an Alba stereo, by your neighbours.

2003 that would have been. They're were definitely in decline by that point, and had lost their way a bit live. They split up a few months later. Since they've been back though the live shows have been incredible. And, as you, say the new stuff's actually pretty good.

They've just announced Forestry Commission shows for the 13th and 21st of June. Is activity around the time of Glastonbury enough to justify upgrading them to full-blown rumour status?

[Lubic]

Yeah they were touring their worst album 'A New Morning' and Neil Codling had already quit the band. Definitely on their way out at that point.

Back on form now though. Looking good for Glastonbury I'd say

Not sure really, Blondie is one which stuck out like a sore thumb last year in terms of being available for Glastonbury due to the Forestry Commission shows. But didn't play.

oh yeah 2003, that sounds right.

Yes, I was trepidatious about seeing them again after that but they were excellent at Latitude and I'd like to see them again playing (a few) off bloodsports.

The Thetford gig is only 45 mins up the road for me but so close to Glasto. I think I'll keep my powder dry. It's quite expensive.

[Petewasbristol]

I'm gonna go to the Westenbirt gig. Just up the road from me. Just need them for glasto now. As for the band they are sounding as good as they ever have done. Think the new album ( which was a fine return to form) really got Brett and co back on track.
