(to clarify, i don't know if Michael kills badgers. I do know he supports badger culls for the supposed benefit of cattle farming) Eavis tried to book them for the Extravaganza a few years ago but it never happened, so it sounds like May is the one holding it up.

Gnomicide Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Got a couple of tickets for Frank Turner solo charity gig in Liverpool in Feb. Only in a little club basement and sold out sharpish. Tickets say 'last entry at 6:30', what's all that about I wonder. Early gig, lengthy gig, expensive bar gig?

There might be a club night after the gig which would make sense for an early gig on a saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a fan of the band nor a Scottish resident but it seemed weird enough to let people know about. Beach Ballroom in Aberdeen looks to be about ten yards from the beach. Imagine that in the summer! Sand on the dancefloor. I lived in Aberdeen for 15 years, never seen a band at the beach ballroom. You have also fallen into the easy assumption that it being by the beach and it being June that you can assume it will be summer, Aberdeen in June still offers a 30% chance of snow and almost guaranteed that the temperature will struggle to hit double figures. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 "EU tour" eh? Somebody call the Daily Mail on these saboteur fucks.

nikkic Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 So who have we all got lined up for 2018? So far I’ve got Bon Iver, Idles, Sigrid, Arcade Fire and All Points East Fest (The National day). Tempted by Young Fathers and Everything Everything but funds are tight!

evilduck Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Peace, King Gizzard, Franz Ferdinand, IAMX, At The Drive-In, Flight of the Conchords, Friendly Fires, Arcade Fire, All Points East LCD day, The Cure and Mad Cool festival so far. Still need to get Queens of the Stone Age and Nick Cave too. It’s a good year already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted January 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Hookworms, King Gizzard, Big Thief, At the Drive-In, Pinegrove and The World Is a Beautiful Place... so far. Probably a bunch more currently announced ones I'll end up going to and then some good stuff yet to be announced (Kanye tour please).

John the Moth Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 I’ve only got Primal Scream, Royal Blood and Biffy Clyro. Gig going is going to be a luxury item for me this year, 1st baby coming in three weeks, I’m probably the only person on these boards happy there’s no Glastonbury this year!

I’ve also got my first baby due in three weeks. Are we the same person? Meant to be seeing Chris Rock but that’s due day so probably not happening. Got Conchords tickets and LCD/National days at APE in the summer but that’s pretty much it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gucci Piggy Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Just got Mad Cool lined up. Too poor for gigs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidenlangan95 Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 I have Kendrick, Bon Iver, Arcade Fire, all of the All Points East days, Queens of the Stone Age and The Cure... Looking like a good year for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could be the same person, sometimes I don’t know myself Congratulations to you and yours Bands I’ve had to decline is depressing, National, LCD, Foos, Prophets of Rage, Killers, Queen, Future Islands, Paramore, Incubus, Roger Waters, Leftfield, Kamasi Washington.... still deciding over Beck and Grace Jones!

the wonderwhy Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 To be honest I actually can't remember. I know I've got Arcade Fire coming up as i've already received the tickets, and i seem to remember booking Phoenix. Keep meaning to buy an Alvvays ticket too. Anything else will legit be a surprise.

Amy Lawn Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 I've got King Kendrick, Alvvays, Susanne Sundfor, First Aid Kit, Young Fathers, Fever Ray, Dinosaur Jr, and Arcade Fire lined up so far. Eyes on LCD Soundsystem, Nils Frahm, TWIABPAIANLATD, Hookworms, and the Nick Cave + Patti Smith + St Vincent APE day, and definitely Green Man once tickets are out, then perhaps I'll finally get to EotR. This is the first time I've compiled my 2018 gig plans and it's made me go "eep" a little bit, I haven't been doing too many lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
