This 'golden circle standing' thing is in the middle of the stage this time, isn't it? I don't imagine there'll be many of those tickets so I wouldn't be so sure it's that greedy. The other tickets seem on a par with other stadium tickets.

Yep they are!

Im going twice at Wembley, first night standing, last night in the gold circle... cannot wait! Im a bit of a big fan of Adele tho, seen her 5 times already. Glastonbury was the best moment ever with Adele tho!

Read this last night and intending to watch just the opening and 'Hello' ended up watching the whole gig.....

I feel the need to openly admit I am more than a little bit in love with the woman.

We went to her set last June, a little sceptically, but we too were wowed

Interesting. Len Cohen is the best I've seen at that. I didnt get that feeling from springsteen at glastonbury.

 

 

Prince was very good at it too though in a different way - he went the crowd seduction route rather than the shared intimacy.

[Funkyfairy!]

I was so sceptical going to see her at Glastonbury , but totally converted that evening

Now super excited to see her at Wembley and taking Mumsie along (she's 74 and her first big gig) - needless to say we are seated,

Thanks for posting the audio link - goosebumps !!! and I'm sure there is something in the office air this afternoon, my eyes are a little damp !

I'm going first night Wembley golden circle -  thought that meant around the stage not in it?   I think her song writing for her age is excellent. She's funny also.  And she was fab at Glasto.

It's the red area inside the stage, stage goes around edge of the gold circle

[CaledonianGonzo]

That's the plans of the Death Star.

[Ohinever]

Just back from Wembley.

 

She mentioned Glasto again, asked if anyone had been and described it as "the greatest night of my fuckin' life".

[FloorFiller]

Also released a statement saying she might never tour again. Probably b/s but interesting anyway:

She says that a lot though. Three/four years off, maybe another child in that time, and she'll be back with another album and tour.

Apparently for real this time. November 19th and lead single soon…

Shouldn’t it be 33? Doesn’t quite have the ring to it though

Recorded when she was 30… seems like she’s been sat on this the whole pandemic (wouldn’t surprise me).

Didn't she say previously that '25' would be the last album title that would refer to her age?

Adele does kinda lie to her fans / misdirect them.

I have no idea. All I know is she’s a bit good 

[Tartan_Glasto]

She actually kinda confirmed in an Instagram post back in 2019 that the album would be called 30.

"Bunch of fucking savages, 30 will be a drum n bass record to spite you" - May 5th 2019

[Matt42]

When all social media went down it was hard to link this but yeah looks like news is coming very soon. Fans found out you can actually get through to the preorder link for the album.

I’d imagine the lead single is coming Thursday night / Friday along with the album pre order. Album is out 19th November.

Looking forward to hearing what sound she goes with for this album. She may well just stick to what she knows and we’ll just get more sadbangers, but I’m kind of expecting a bit of a change up this time, even if it is only a subtle one.

I feel like we could get some more up tempo tunes in this one. I’m thinking maybe more in the direction of tracks like Rumour has it / Send my Love.

Of course I am looking forward to her next sad banger though. There were some real corkers on 25.

Panic buying Kleenex is a cert.
