New Royal Blood tour:

Glasgow, Barrowland (February 22)

Plymouth, Pavilions (27)

Bridlington, Spa (28)

Portsmouth, Guildhall (March 2)

Newport, Centre (3)

Norwich, UEA (5)

Blackpool, Empress Ballroom (6)

Wolverhampton, Civic Hall (11)

London, O2 Academy Brixton (13)

Nottingham, Rock City (14)

Surprising that they're playing Bridlington, that venue is usually reserved for arena bands doing warm-ups

It isn't all the time, but about half the music gigs are like that yeah.

I saw an advert yesterday with Royal Blood's logo with UK tour 2015 in the corner yesterday and clicked it and it just showed me all the sold out 2014 dates so I thought nothing more of it. Definitely moving up through the venues now though.

Half the gigs I go to are in Portsmouth, it's probably the best served city on the South Coast aside from Brighton

True, but I feel like it's a little bit of a case of usual suspects - plenty of decent (usually British) bands come down here repeatedly, whereas some bands, that would be the right size for the Guildhall or Pyramids, miss it tour after tour.

But yeah, I shouldn't complain, I guess - things could certainly be a lot worse :P

Well try living in Salisbury, we have a decent 1200 capacity venue that gets nothing but tribute bands with the odd band that have released a song this decade sprinkled in.

Only a half hour train ride from Southampton though

Also someone please buy my ticket for The Antlers at Hackney Empire

Actually I also have a spare for He Is Legend in Winchester if anyone is interested

You got Eels this summer so you do get some awesome stuff too :P

Yeah but I don't go to Southampton Guildhall on account of it being the worst venue in the country. It's good for smaller gigs though and the opening of the new 900 cap venue should be good.

I swear I read somewhere that the Guildhall's acoustics are so good there's a rumour that The Cure rehearse there before every tour

Also when you say the new 900 cap venue do you mean The 1865?

It's better than Portsmouth fucking Pyramids. It's a swimming pool ffs.

An arse to get to as well

    • I read a reliable source saying there's not enough time to stress test and have worked through any major financial decisions between now and then.   So guarantees this budget will just be tinkering at the edges only.
    • Thanks @sisco. Looking forward to it!
    • Looking like will be bringing a 2-3 month old to Glastonbury next year
    • Healey's first budget with be Oct 28th
    • Been going for 10 years. Wasn't massively keen on the lineup beforehand - although as usual after some research I did start to really look forward to it. We had a brilliant time, felt more like old school Latitude, lovely vibe and we met some nice people. We saw loads but highlights for me -   Lime Garden Florence Road Jalen Ngonda David Byrne - Not a fan of him or TH really but we went out of interest and it was one of those festival shows that you'll never forget. The staging was off the scale. Eleni Drake - Up on BBC Introducing, what a haven that stage is.  Westside Cowboy Getdown Services - Probably highlight of the weekend for me. Absolutely brilliant and have booked tix for them in Bristol next year. Everything Everything - They're my favourite band so I loved it when they were added. A great start to Sunday and met loads of their fans up near the front. Alex James Britpop - We enjoyed it and Gary Stringer FFS! David O'Doherty - Saw him twice, brilliant as usual. Self Esteem - Adore Rebecca and the show was as live affirming as always.   Overall, it was such a brilliant weekend. Beforehand we said that we might give it a miss next year but I'm pretty sure that we'll be sucked right back in!
