Any sign of a pre sale for the Ally Pally date?

Aye - sale starts at 10:00 for the post Glastonbury show.

As has been mentioned, most of Europe sold out now. Wonder how quickly this one will go. Roundhouse is 3,300 capacity and now Ally Pally with 10,400 (Wembley CowShed is 12,500).

As I thought - a lot of people who were probably 13/14/15 during royals are in their mid 20s now. The teen nostalgia is probably driving a lot of her increased demand. + the fact she doesn’t tour a lot. She may do these dates and then disappear for another 5 years.

I’m watching her Glastonbury set and my god she’s amazing plus she really got Glastonbury didn’t she.  She needs that spot on the Pyramid

Natural progression would be a Pyramid sub, it just doesn't feel right.

Why would that not feel right? She can only really headline other or sub the pyramid…. 3rd down at a push I guess?!

Yeah I mean, I wouldn't personally see her dates as a bump up. She's not doing anything big that she did previously. I thought her spot was a bit favourable last time too. I'd expect Other sub or 3rd Pyramid. If she can sell Ally Pally twice then maybe high but plenty have played Ally Pally at least level lower than sub.

If Lorde plays OS she's headlining it, no doubt about that. Pyramid sub feels more likely to me based purely off gut instinct.

I think with the acts around they can get bigger Pyramid subs. I've seen bigger acts play 3rd down multiple times. We shall see though.

That kick in at the end is absolutely awesome. It really gives you that primal scream hug everyone around you vibe.

I feel seen.

They still need to amp up the outro a bit.

Despite initial reactions to the contrary, it’s such a banger. Love the full band set up and the whole vibe of this. Absolutely excellent stuff

I can already see the Glasto end of weekend montage with this as the soundtrack ❤️ 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Can I kick it?

Yes, I can..

It’s definitely Lorde does LDR as the title suggested. It’s good, but hasn’t grabbed me like Solar Power did on first listen.

[Hutchmaster]

Hmm, it's decent but I'm getting a strong feeling that I'll enjoy it more with multiple album listens.

[Matt42]

Going to listen to this on my walk home 

[FloorFiller]

I like it but gotta agree with @jparx that she’s gone full Lana with this one, title and all. Still hoping there’s some semblance of a banger or something more upbeat on the album.
