Yeah I missed it last time due to the dates being rubbish for me to get too however I can't miss this tour as I don't know when they'll next be back to the U.K as they like to avoid it. I think they must feel there is demand to sell it after selling out Brixton fairly quickly. Yeah I missed out last time! I seriously need to see them live again, not seen them live since they played Reading 96 and they've released so many albums since then lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about perfect timing... Yeah Weezer tickets are needed for sure. Was actually chatting to a friend the other day about how much we regretted missing out on Brixton tickets after Say It Ain't So came on the radio in his car, so the timing of this is perfect. Metallica will be pricey but only seen them once (and outdoors) so can't really turn that down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) Kvelertak supporting Metallica is ace. Not enough to justify me buying a ticket but that'll be great for those who go. Hopefully the crowd are responsive. Apparently 'a very special guest' to be supporting Weezer. I know bands always say this kind of stuff but considering the size of the venues they're playing (or Wembley at least) I'd expect something pretty good. edit: fuck me £90+ for Metallica at London. That makes me giving it a miss a bit easier. Edited March 16, 2017 by FloorFiller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 When the support acts are of a significant size they announce them off the bat tho, right? Don't think Weezer will struggle with Wembley to be honest. A lot of people were gutted to miss out last time, and I bet all the people that went to last year's shows will be going to see them again too.

Aye tbh I imagine a special guest at a Weezer show is only gonna be some pop/punk act or similar that I have little to no interest in anyway. Prices are up for the Manchester date - £45 before fees. Hmm, I'll probably see how I'm feeling on ticket release morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSmurphy Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Comeback Kid is okay. If you've played Fifa 17 for any significant length of time you would have heard it all over the menus and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm listening to the new track and it's alright; way more indie pop than they've ever been - pretty disco even. So yeah I was hoping for too much by writing it off as Drones. I guess the track names are always mad - that album art tho?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Punk Sucks Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 That's 100 percent Rivers trolling for the lolz. At one of the shows on the last tour he announced there were playing Reading and Leeds last year, again just for the lolz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSmurphy Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Kasabian were genuinely planning on the lyrics "Horsemeat in the burgers, people commit murders, everyone's on bugle, we're being watched by Google" for their last album. The artwork and track names don't surprise me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelemon Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 I think the tracklist is cool, it's just the artwork that's horrible. I'm sure the album will be good, but I almost don't want to own that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I was expecting from Kasabian releasing songs like "The Party Never Ends", "Are You Looking For Action?" and "God Bless This Acid House", but you'd expect the one they put out to be daft too but it's remarkably nice and pedestrian, so maybe not. 9 minutes ago, Odessa said: Hahahaha, is that defo legit?

That's why I can never hate Kasabian - I do think they've done some good stuff before but never been that attached where I'm loathe to slag them off but they're well in on the joke and play up to it. Putting that out as an album cover is hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicklord Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 They named their last album 48:13 cause it was its length so yeah. That's real Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelemon Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 At least they're keeping it interesting. They've always been a little bit weird, and they pull it off way better than The 1975 do, who just come across as pretentious. Think they've got a sense of humour with that cover, because it's so ugly. Thought they got their aesthetic spot on on the last record even if the music itself wasn't that great. I wouldn't be surprised if the rest of the album was a bit more electro-punk sounding, that's the vibe I get from that artwork. The single is OK - reckon it could be a grower - but I really like the chorus, as simple as it may be. Something infectious about it.
