Sufjan

[Bort]

The Sufjan in the AQuditori thing has pissed me off no end.

They did this last year with Low, meaning you had to queue up for hours and pay 2 euro for a ticket to see them. Nonsense. I won't be doing it on principle

That Primavera line up is incredible, Best festival line up I have seen in yeaars. Gonna go next year.

Really? I thought you only had to get a ticket early in the day and then come back before showtime to get in. Or queue all day if you can't get said ticket. Hmm. How hard are theses tickets to get?

You do. They started giving out tickets at 2pm. We got there at midday and they were already telling people at the back they weren't going to get tickets. And this was like 5 hours before the bands really started! And that was for Low! I can't imagine what it'll be like for Sufjan.

Plus the paying an extra 2 euro to see a band at a festival which I've already paid for really really rankled with me. Primavera gets so so much right. But that, and the chaos of ticketing on the first day (word of advice - go to one of the pre shows to get your wristband and entry card. It will save you about 4 hours on the first day. Thankfully we went with someone who'd been before) were both pretty rubbish

What time do the gates open?

What's up with these pre-shows? I know for the Wednesday activities at the Poble Espanyol, you just show your ticket and get in. So there's a way to get my wristband sorted before the gates open on Thursday?

Also, if I get a press pass, do I get priority access to the auditori like the VIP's?

we've just had a bit of info which puts in him the frame for Glasto - not definitely, but it suggests he might be.

Lovely news As with every good news though and with my luck, it's going to create yet another horrible clash.

[Diamond Solitaire]

YES please be true. Would really really love to see him

[Toilet Duck]

Excellent...and if true, it'll save me queueing to get a ticket to see him at Primavera!...

[thelizardking]

If your going to spell his name. Spell it right.

Yeah, he might be making the rounds and have a suspicious touring gap, but unless Glastonbury has a new indoor, seated theater that only holds a few thousand people, it's not happening.

[sweet and tender hooligan]

Sounds like there might be about to be some UK tour dates announced.

[When Jokers Attack]

YES!! A must see

Hoorah!

[In transit]

Festival Hall? FFS.

[Diamond Solitaire]

Why does he have to tour in May? I have loads of exams then and won't be able to get all the way to London for these shows. Gutted. Fingers crossed he'll be at Glastonbury or I'm going to end up waiting years to get the chance to see him probably

[Bort]

Yeah, these dates guarantee he won't be there.

Can't see him coming back here just for a suprise performance.

Seen him at the Sage a couple of weeks ago, thought he was ok, some real high points interspersed with a lot of self indulgence.

I saw him in Brighton a couple of weeks ago and it was A-MAZ-ING, would kill (well, maybe not kill, I'm a pacifist) to see him again at Glastonbury but I don't think it'll happen. Didn't find it self-indulgent at all, just spell-bindingly brilliant. Love love loved it!

That is all.
