They don't though.....? They play em but that's a different matter.

Lana Del Rey sold out her arena tour pretty sharply? Haim have sold out the O2?

If you think about it, Lorde, Haim, Lana and The Weeknd represent the 4 corners of the political compass. Interesting!

We will never forget.

I’m so confused what u trying to say

I thought you were saying she'd be mid-Pyramid and I was being daft in saying you were underpinning her, because the meme is that I think she's a nobody. And it turns out she's actually seemingly a bit more popular than she was a few years ago. But I didn't realise you were talking about a sub spot so it was pretty ineffective.

Let’s not forget Lorde hasn’t actually released her third album yet and is selling tickets off the back of melodrama and a lead single. By the time June 2022 is around the new album will have had time to sit on Spotify and probably get promoted to death by other means. A year will make a big difference to an act who is currently seen as a weaker sub but a very strong 3rd down.

Dont think they have, seems like there are a fair few left on the O2's website for it at least....

I mean, Lorde managed to sell out 3no. roundhouse (for more £ per ticket than Haim are doing at the O2) and is now doing ally pally too. If she sells that out (big if), then she must be getting close to the same as doing 1 night at the O2...

Odds?

 

Seeing as we never had a Sunday sub Lorde into Taylor is still a possibility.

Usually this stuff doesn’t happen at glasto but it can’t be ignored. There is space for it.

I can see Lorde doing Friday, but spending the weekend going ham with the rest of us, and popping up with Tay on sunday? Lorde has that whole weekend free at the minute, and I reckon there’s a strong chance that’s on purpose so she can enjoy the festival!

All of her dates have now sold out and I reckon the Alexander palace date on sale on Wednesday won’t take long to go either.  Roughly how many tickets do you reckon that is? Roughly about 30k?

Hard to judge whether that’s ‘sub’ numbers but this does look like a deliberate run of smaller shows rather than a Wembley Arena run.

Yeah really hard to tell what the demand would be if she was at bigger venues vs selling out a load of smaller ones. Certainly seems like a success though and the venues were chosen rather than necessitated. She’s subbing or headlining the Other IMO.

    • Well he is on a rape charge, don't see that one as controversial.    Although Hakimi is in Morocco squad.   
    • Electric Callboy just said they'll be touring here next year. I'm not sure there's a poster for it though. I'll look when I'm near some next.      He said we'll see you at Download at a gig before any of the band. Presumably he was trolling. They're in Austria at the moment and Germany tomorrow with a week's break and more shows in Germany. Whilst not impossible to come back here and then go over there again, it seems unlikely. 
    • Thomas Partey, knocked back by Canadian immigration now.
    • I'm sure someone can update you on the clashfinder, and it will be pretty accurate by the time the festival comes around. It's a large flat-ish arena with main stage in the open air, no best side I'd say. Leadmill (3rd stage medium tent) is at the back of the main arena, T'Other (2nd stage big tent) 5 min walk round the corner. At full capacity walking around can take a bit more time though. I noticed that The Enemy are scheduled to not fully overlap with Wolf Alice, so you could catch part of their set too.   You can walk around anywhere with a beer, with most bars the usual mass market stuff, but one nice craft ale tent, back of the arena near the Leadmill stage. A main meal will set you back £10-15, but cheaper snacks also available. Expect a pint to be £7-8. Possibly a bit more this year as prices everywhere are increasing.   It's fairly easy to get to from the town centre using the tram, although can be busy at peak times / very busy at curfew. If you like a walk, it's approx 40 mins to Kelham Island (lots of indy venues) and probably an hour to the city, or catch an Uber. There will be loads of 'fringe' music events on around the city right through the weekend. Most are free. Have a wonderful trip, enjoy the festival, and your stay in our city! 
    • I think people on a place like this, that clearly value live music more than most, don't. I'd rather an academy than an arena every day. But I could see a few people that care about "the gram" than the actual music wanting an arena experience even if it's a mid sized band.
