^This. Why sit through stuff you don't like? You'll hate it and the others you are with know that you aren't enjoying it so what's the point? Just meet up again later.
On the barrier for their Roadmender Northampton gig early April and then saw Gaz Coombes at the Lexington in London a couple of weeks later. Both awesome gigs and will definitely be seeing them at Glastonbury too.
We really enjoyed it last year and it was great that all of the stages were all close together. Just a shame they reduced it to a one day festival this year as it isn't really worth going up from Cambridge for the day.
Simon Pegg was there with Edgar Wright and posted a couple of videos to his instagram stories last night and the place seemed quite bouncy for Chaise Longue 🙂
Not seem one in John Peel or on West Holts. Not really a fan of the John Peel tent when it's busy but am normally at Park or Other for headliners anyway.
They have announced on their Discord channel dates at London Koko, Brighton Chalk, and Nottingham iirc. I signed up to have a look but deleted the account again now.
Ah, showing on their website now https://diiv.net/shows Bristol too.
Saw Bodega last night in Cambridge. It was very loud and very sweaty. It was great! 🙂 A shame that Bug Club had to pull out last minute but still totally worth going to.
The fan email suggests otherwise so you might be safe on the Monday 😄:
"We are pleased to announce two consecutive nights of fundraising concerts at the Eventim Apollo London on 9th and 10th May.
The first night will benefit War Child to help those affected by the war in Ukraine and other conflict zones, and Médecins Sans Frontières for its ongoing work in Ukraine and the world’s greatest crises.
The second night is in support of The Big Issue for its 30th Anniversary and will feature Razorlight as very special guests."
The problem being the 20% vat on top when it enters the country and the £10 or so fee for the postal company collecting the vat so probably another £30 to add to the total when it comes in.
