Got a couple of tickets for Frank Turner solo charity gig in Liverpool in Feb. Only in a little club basement and sold out sharpish.

Tickets say 'last entry at 6:30', what's all that about I wonder. Early gig, lengthy gig, expensive bar gig?

There might be a club night after the gig which would make sense for an early gig on a saturday

Ah. Good point. Don't think I can cope with a club night

I might go and bring an unopened bottle of water with me just to have an argument with security when they take it off me about the ins and outs of chucking a bottle at a hologram.

Yeah that's what caught my eye about it. Not a fan of the band nor a Scottish resident but it seemed weird enough to let people know about.

Beach Ballroom in Aberdeen looks to be about ten yards from the beach. Imagine that in the summer! Sand on the dancefloor.

I lived in Aberdeen for 15 years, never seen a band at the beach ballroom. You have also fallen into the easy assumption that it being by the beach and it being June that you can assume it will be summer, Aberdeen in June still offers a 30% chance of snow and almost guaranteed that the temperature will struggle to hit double figures.

"EU tour" eh? Somebody call the Daily Mail on these saboteur fucks. Brexit means Brexit!

2018 touring bands just won't quit tho, almost makes up for there being no G.

[Avalon_Fields]

I’m looking forward to the HoloGram Parsons tour.

I'm on the phone to trading standards about the title of that tour. 2 Swiss dates.

13000 capacity for the 3arena. Hope they make the most of this and have the hologram about 30 feet high so every one gets a good view. A proper big O.

So who have we all got lined up for 2018?

So far I’ve got Bon Iver, Idles, Sigrid, Arcade Fire and All Points East Fest (The National day).

Tempted by Young Fathers and Everything Everything but funds are tight! 

[evilduck]

Peace, King Gizzard, Franz Ferdinand, IAMX, At The Drive-In, Flight of the Conchords, Friendly Fires, Arcade Fire, All Points East LCD day, The Cure and Mad Cool festival so far. Still need to get Queens of the Stone Age and Nick Cave too. It’s a good year already!

[FloorFiller]

Hookworms, King Gizzard, Big Thief, At the Drive-In, Pinegrove and The World Is a Beautiful Place... so far. Probably a bunch more currently announced ones I'll end up going to and then some good stuff yet to be announced (Kanye tour please).

[John the Moth]

I’ve only got Primal Scream, Royal Blood and Biffy Clyro. Gig going is going to be a luxury item for me this year, 1st baby coming in three weeks, I’m probably the only person on these boards happy there’s no Glastonbury this year!

Really? I’ve also got my first baby due in three weeks. Are we the same person? Meant to be seeing Chris Rock but that’s due day so probably not happening.

Got Conchords tickets and LCD/National days at APE in the summer but that’s pretty much it.

 

[Gucci Piggy]

Just got Mad Cool lined up. Too poor for gigs.

[aidenlangan95]

I have Kendrick, Bon Iver, Arcade Fire, all of the All Points East days, Queens of the Stone Age and The Cure... Looking like a good year for me!

We could be the same person, sometimes I don’t know myself 

Congratulations to you and yours 

Bands I’ve had to decline is depressing, National, LCD, Foos, Prophets of Rage, Killers, Queen, Future Islands, Paramore, Incubus, Roger Waters, Leftfield, Kamasi Washington.... still deciding over Beck and Grace Jones!

[the wonderwhy]

To be honest I actually can't remember. I know I've got Arcade Fire coming up as i've already received the tickets, and i seem to remember booking Phoenix. Keep meaning to buy an Alvvays ticket too. 

Anything else will legit be a surprise. 

[Guest]

I've got King Kendrick, Alvvays, Susanne Sundfor, First Aid Kit, Young Fathers, Fever Ray, Dinosaur Jr, and Arcade Fire lined up so far. Eyes on LCD Soundsystem, Nils Frahm, TWIABPAIANLATD, Hookworms, and the Nick Cave + Patti Smith + St Vincent APE day, and definitely Green Man once tickets are out, then perhaps I'll finally get to EotR. This is the first time I've compiled my 2018 gig plans and it's made me go "eep" a little bit, I haven't been doing too many lately.

Arcade Fire
