Absolutely glorious set last night in London. Better than Glastonbury even.

I wasn't there, but  it wasn't better than Glastonbury.

[TomViolence]

They were superb again at Loxebox, had so much fun!

Glastonbury slightly edges it for me as the crowd seemed to get into it more and almost all of the set was in the dark.

We got 'Home' on Saturday though... it was ace!

[Amy Lawn]

Announce the UK tour dates! We know they exist.

[nikkic]

Can see them doing a few nights at Ally Pally. At least I hope they do!

Say no to Ally Pally, nobody likes heading that far from central unless you live in that part of London. I'd rather they turned up at The Roundhouse or Forum for a couple of nights

Skip the north and just do 7 nights at the Barrowlands. That's what everyone REALLY wants

This is true, such a trek for the majority of people! I guess Earl's Court could be an option (unless they're still planning to knock it down?)

Earls Court is being redeveloped I think. Ally Pally and Brixton are the two best options in LDN for them, rather that than The O2 or Wembley Arena. 

[TomViolence]

1) Brixton

2) The O2

3) Wembley Arena

4) Ally Pally

 

[nikkic]

Really? What don't you like about Ally Pally? Is location the main thing. Can understand if it is, bit out on a limb. 

 

For or me its...

1. Brixton

2. Ally Pally

3. Wembley 

4. O2

[Winslow Leach]

Wembley Arena is the utter pits. Brixton or Roundhouse all the way for sizeable London venues.

[grayfitz]

Ally Pally really isn't that far out of London.

Wood Green is about 15 minutes from Central London, and they have shuttle buses from the station to Ally Pally. 

[Homer]

I think we may be comparing apples with oranges here - Brixton is 5,000 people; O2 is 20,000! Especially as the Barrowlands holds 2,000 (I just Googled it!).

[The Red Telephone]

Last tour here they played:

Barrowlands x2

Manchester Appollo

Rotherham Magna

Cardiff Arena

Ally Pally

The Coronet, London

Can see them doing the same sort of thing in London again (1 massive show, 1 smaller club show). Throw in a Midlands date and swap Rotherham for Hull and I'll be a happy man.

[SwedgeAntilles]

Two nights at the Barrowlands would be amazing. 

[Muppetmark]

1) Kokos 
2) Brixton
3) Roundhouse
4) Shepards bush empire
5) hammersmith apollo
6) Troxy
7) wembley arena
8 )the 02
9) Aly paly

Watched their performance on iplayer yesterday. Think it's finally clicked with me. Why oh why did it not click before the end of June??

I tried and tried and just didn't get it. Fecking eejit once again. 

Always at least 5 - 10 years behind the times

Never mind... How were Coldplay?

[nikkic]

There's no way Ally Pally is worse than the corporate, soulless crap house that is The O2.

They could undoubtably play a bigger venue than the Barrowlands, but James Murphy has been vocal before about it being one of his favourite venues in the world, so they're never going to play anywhere else

Fair enough - I just don't think they're going to step up to the O2.

I mean, Ally Pally is certainly a nicer place but in my experience The O2 undeniably sounds better.
