Although to be fair, not sure what venues like that the UK even has. Scarborough Open Air Theatre, maybe. Castlefield Bowl is pretty good. Live music and trams, what’s not to like?

Mattymooz Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 Do they ever use the Minack for gigs or is it just theatre productions?... Would still be a pain in the arse to get to mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rose-Colored Boy Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 So we’ve established she could’ve done a summer venues tour taking in Scarborough, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Blackpool, Manchester and Leeds. Also Milton Keynes for the softy southerners who like concrete. Birmingham is building a city centre venue for the Commonwealth Games beach volleyball, that sounds good. And Wales can use Caernarfon Castle or something. Not exactly beach vibes for some of them but better than the dated af O2 Academies. I love/hate that this has generated more comments than the actual song she just put out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Jass Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 Just get her headlining Boardmasters. It is literally on the edge of a cliff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jyoung Posted August 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 New tune is an absolute bop. Love all three tracks that have been released so far. I like that she hasn't made Melodrama part two. Times change and people do too. Can't wait to listen to the album. In terms of venues, Roundhouse will be amazing and as for seeing her outside, well let's hope she's on the Pyramid stage later that month.

Superunknown Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 Wasn't sure after the first single, guess I was also expecting Melodrama style bangers but I've really enjoyed the latest two and got a good feeling for the sound she's going for with the new album. Can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love/hate that this has generated more comments than the actual song she just put out. Wales is doing gigs in Cardiff Bay for I think the first time this year, not sure what they'll be like. Cardiff Castle is a really cool setting for gigs (although the bars were a joke when I went). Bristol uses the Amphitheatre by the harbour for those gigs that always give us Glastonbury clues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zacko Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 It's just so nice of Lorde to provide us with a Summer of VIBES. The official video is nice, but I'm feeling like the video for Crazy Town - Butterfly (minus the band shots) would be next level early 2000's-mystical-pleasure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zacko Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 Can't stop listening to Mood Ring, the 'floating away' hook is such an earworm. Can just imaging this drifting over the crowd at Glasto ❤️ What's the latest thinking on a potential slot she might play? Still all in for the Friday sub tbh, that would be a dream.

Yeah tbh judging from the pretty basic direction the songs seem to have taken I’m not expecting another masterpiece/critical favourite like Melodrama. I’m sure it’ll be good but the singles have hardly been show stoppers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
