Doves

[grrrraeme]

that is the point im trying to make, the 2 gigs last year were celebratory gigs

the gigs this year will be more about getting 'kingdom of rust' out there

but their festival sets are always amazing.

bollox to it, she can cancel her ticket if she likes but i'm going no matter what, even if its on my todd

[Tugger2k]

so depending on their slot (they have to be at least sunset other for me) we can now look forward to 12-15 of these

A House

Almost Forgot Myself

Ambition

Black And White Town

Break Me Gently

Catch The Sun

Caught By The River

Firesuite

Jetstream Rise

Kingdom Of Rust

Last Broadcast

N.Y.

Northenden

Pounding

Rise

Satellites

Sea Song

Sky Starts Falling

Snowdon

The Cedar Room

The Outsider

There Goes The Fear

Where Were Calling From

Winter Hill

Words

And of course Spaceface

what a set they could build from that, and thats without having heard 6/7 of the new album

man, im going to love that gig (i have a feeling thats going to be my gig of the year) but i know im going to disapointed that at least 2 of my faves arent going to get played.

im already way to stoked about this, no way i can contain it till june

One of these days wouldn't be one of your 2 faves? My only disappointment with their glasto 2005 set was they didn't play that track - but I think cos of the weather most acts had to cut down their sets. Remember New Order didn't do Blue Monday allegedly they had to cut down the set list - whilst they were in the middle of the gig.

and add that to the list, i think that makes 27 to choose from, plus the new album, so 15 odd are not going to get played

obviously on the upside, that means they will be playing whats left

[Paul ™]

This is fantastic news, where do you think they will play?

Sunset slot on Other Stage?

[Tugger2k]

They have said on their myspace blog they'll be doing 6 new tracks - thats 2 more to add to your list.

[paulo999]

Yep, sunset slot on Other is where I'd have them too. The slot that, last year, made Elbow.

[lsdmoto]

This news has made my day !!!!!!! i had a feeling they'd play ! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

They played the Sunset slot at Leeds 03 and it was one of the best days of my life. So good that I'm worried that it may not be as good the second time round.

[Red Day]

dont worry about it.

they never disapoint live and glasto's their favourite festival. wherever and whenever they play, it's going to be a standout moment.

if its half as good as 2003 were in for a real treat :rolleyes:

[Tugger2k]

It's also official, you now MUST go

[Red Day]

mate, prayers answered!!

my GF's 2nd favourite live act in the world have just been added as a strong rumour, so shes more up for it than i am now.

i could kiss the white stripes

[Tugger2k]

ive always wanted to go, but it does seem to just be a clone fest these days (acts wise)

always imagined that the atmosphere is right up there tho

[Red Day]

Atmosphere can be pretty good and last year they had a top line up with loads of variety. Piss poor so far this year, although all the Scottish papers are bigging it up, on account they get free entry.

Some give the reputation as a bit of a nedfest which is a bit unfair. I've been going since the satrt and never had any bother.

[grrrraeme]

I bought tickets for Doves Newcastle in the presale at £25.30 + £4.80 transaction fee. This morning in the general sale its £19.80 + £4.80 transaction fee. Both prices were on gigsandtours.com (Their see tickets sight is showing the same price). Can anyone shed any light on this? Why should I pay 25%more for buying in the presale?

[Tugger2k]

Did you get this sorted with seetickets?

For £175 you get to see the Doves at Glastonbury with the following support acts -

The Boss, NY (possibly with CSN), Blur, Franz F, BB King, Fleetwood Mac, Tom F*cking Jones, Madness, White Stripes, The Specials, Lily Allen, Fleet Foxes, Ting Tings and numerous others. Now that's what I call a bargain.
