With the Echo (yeah it's still the echo arena to us locals) being on the smaller end of arenas (about 11,000 for a bog standard arena gig). even the views in the gods are still quite decent

I’ve got an ee payg sim I use for glasto. Get a 2’ep day plan for £10 free sim and 10gb data which was plenty for the weekend. Could do something similar with Vodafone

Rumour is its 2 gigs a week over 5 weeks around October-November. (obvously with the obligatory wiggle room to add more) the venue can hold 17,500 according to wikipedia reckon with the current state of affairs regarding tickets along with being in vegas you'l be lucky to see a face value ticket below $200.

i must admit i've mentioned duran squared too, however if its a choice between these 2 our chart record holding cannuck wins every time

Has anyone mentioned Bryan Adams? gat a week long gap in his tour schedule in America as well... most recent set list from his vegas residency trim this down could be a winner Bryan Adams Concert Setlist at Encore Theater, Las Vegas on February 5, 2023 | setlist.fm

ineed it was....

Headlined jazz world (yeah i still call it that) in 2011 against Beyonce and they were all sorts of ace. great way to finish any festival

no you're spot on. it was at that point i'd had enough and left to go watch the end of orbital

There was an interview with Christine not long before she died were she said John isn't in the best of health either these days and Stevie basically told FM's manager its him or me regarding Buckingham because he apparently smirked behind her when she was making a speech at an awards ceremony. They were seen with fleetood at a memorial service for CM in LA this week though so who knows basically 🤷‍♂️

Not sure U2 will play with a replacement drummer but stranger things have happened. Larry Mullen Jr. says he may not drum with U2 if the band tours in 2023 (nme.com) more inclined to beleive the Foos will turn up somewhere

the people who are streaming/buying ladbaby are probably the same turnips who kept w@nksock in the jungle. as mentioned cut out the insufferable gobshites and donate to the trussell trust direct

Madness are free Glastonbury weekend. They Get the festival andHave the perfect songs for a Sunday slot. They could do worse.

isn't it elon musk's kid?

i think whatever slim (ciggie paper slim) chance there was of U2 coming back you can rule them out now. can't see them playing as a threesome Larry Mullen Jr., Facing Surgery, Indicates 2023 U2 Tour Is Unlikely - Variety

Foo's in Milton Keynes in 2011 had this too. once you had your wrist band you could come and go. no extra charge just had to queue up. Was really good till Dave decided to go into the mixing desk so he could sing a few songs to everyone behind it 🤣

The Ticketmaster queue system is designed to suck your will to get a ticket. I tried for Coldplay tickets in Amsterdam in august. Got in the waiting room 1/2 hour before sale time. Come the on sale time they’res 350,000 in front of me for 120,000 tickets. Coldplay is one thing but I don think I could handle knowing immediately what my chances are of getting a ticket.

don't forget to ride the monorail.

as much as i wouldn't even wipe my ample sized @rse with the rag, haven't they actually been quite close to the mark when it comes to glasto rumours?

Ticketmaster execs must look at glasto ticket day and cry over how much they’re losing out on surge pricing for glasto

I’ve got no skin in the game this year tried for other people but never got a sniff. Off to Canada for 3 weeks r and r we’ve promised the kids. However this crops up every year. Anyone who didn’t get a ticket “There’s got to be a better way to sell tickets” anyone successful “nothing wrong with it l, didn’t do anything different, fairest way” you’ve got to wonder if a lot of it is sour grapes at missing out. Plus, it could be worse it could be ticketbastard or live nation telling you there’s 500,000 people in front of you destroying what hope you wake up with

do keep trying my mate in Bali got through on his phone about 20 minutes ago just got the confirmation email

Sting's knocking about in the UK around Glasto. Wouldn't mind seeing him. he'd have to play loads of police though and bring Mark Knopfler out to do money for nothing

They’re doing. Warrington aren’t they (I assume it’s Victoria park they might think that covers the North west)

Actually feel quite lucky that I got to see him at the v festival in 2007 when he was touring graduation and the most out there thing about him was his slitty glasses that everyone at festivals seemed to be wearing that year.

as long as he does the going for gold theme tune i'd be all over it
