Arctic Monkeys

[Tobieski]

I might warm to it eventually I guess, don't get me wrong some of the tracks are ace, just others are distinctly average in my opinion.

[Com Truise]

Is anyone listening to radio 1? Alex sounds like such a tart

[Babyquack]

Haha, on R1 just now, Alex admitted to missing Gravy when he's away in the US. You northerners and your gravy!

The strokes subbing arctics, is that feasible?

Although the Strokes are shite live, they are a headliner band and will sub to no one at R&L, sorry

[lightning1000]

Nope, co headline. Went on after pulp at reading. And he said they will sub no one at r&l, not Leeds.

It doesn't matter what they say, I don't see them as headliners here anymore

[Seanoooo]

Such a strong album, tbh it may be my favourite got so much diversity, every song is good, one for the road and knee socks are so cool.

[Tobieski]

I don't think The Strokes have long left to be honest, another album maybe

Doesn't matter what the band say, if Com Truise says they aren't headliners then they aren't headliners.

Edit: I don't think The Strokes will do anything else. I was incredibly surprised when this year's material was announced, and when it wasn't a total disaster.

[Babyquack]

Have they done at touring for the latest album? I haven't heard of anything anywhere tbh...

[Tobieski]

They said they weren't touring it at all

[justanothername]

[Tobieski]

They released an album this year yeah, called Comedown Machine. I've loved everything the The Strokes have ever done, apart from Comedown Machine. So yeah check in out if you want but I didn't find the album very good at all.

Anyway, early guesses for what the Arctics tour setlist will look like?

[dentalplan]

Here's an attempt:

1. Do I Wanna Know?
2. Brianstorm
3. I Want it All
4. One For the Road
5. Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair
6. Snap Out of It
7. Crying Lightning
8. She's Thunderstorms
9. Arabella
10. Fireside
11. Knee Socks
12. Dancing Shoes
13. Pretty Visitors
14. I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor
15. Mardy Bum
16. Mad Sounds
17. Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?
18. Fluorescent Adolescent
19. R U Mine? (followed by encore 1)
20. When the Sun Goes Down
21. No. 1 Party Anthem (followed by encore 2)
22. I Wanna Be Yours

[the wonderwhy]

Can't see all 12 songs going straight in to the setlist tbh. Might do at Roundhouse next week- I'm actually hoping they play the whole album then pump out the classics- but for the tour I reckon it'll just be 6/7

[Com Truise]

I was hedging my bets. I can't think of which ones wouldn't make the cut yet...

[dentalplan]

If I were to pick the 7 I think they'd play it'd be Arabella, High, No 1 Party Anthem, I Wanna Be Yours, Do I Wanna Know, R U Mine and Mad Sounds
