Tour Announcements & Upcoming Gigs

[priest17]

This has shaped up to be quite the day! I've ever been to a big gig like this before outside of Heaton park, and there was never a second stage or this many bands then, how does the 2 stages thing work? I'm guessing no one clashes with QOTSA? Is it easy to find times? I only really bought the ticket for Iggy Pop so all this is a bonus anyway.

I seriously cannot wait for that

Yeah the second stage won't clash with QOTSA. To be honest I'm expecting it to just be the six acts listed down the bottom so it may well be wrapped up before Iggy Pop too

Ah sweet, I'm only really after Skinny Girl Diet and Hinds. Although I'm seeing hinds in a couple of months so might not even bother with that. Exciting stuff either way.

There’s a lot of good stuff there. I’d be all over it if I wasn’t already doing half a dozen outdoor gigs this summer.

[Tommy101]

I'm pumped for this too. Will most likely get down early and plonk at the main stage though, at least for Hives onwards.

I want to know how Miles Kane keeps getting an invite to these shindigs 

[Mash011]

With the addition of Hinds (did they curate this line up for me? jeez) that QotSA gig has shot to the top of my summer gigs list. But I might be busy on the 30th, and that stresses me out. If I'm not busy I'm absolutely there.

[evilduck]

I wonder how early they will have to start if all 7 acts are playing the main stage? With the exception of Miles Kane, I absolutely love all the rest so I'll have to be there as soon as they open the gates!

Yeah Ive been wondering that too. Is there any info on when the gates open?

On See Tickets it says 11:30.

Think we are looking at an 8am train from Manchester. My mate lives about 2 miles from Finsbury Park (Hornsey) so it's get to his and mooch on over.

Has the stuff to be gig of the year for me

[priest17]

We're heading down from Manchester the night before, looks like we might have to tone down the how heavy we treat Friday if it's AM doors. Perfect day to get through a festivalless summer, if the weather turns up could be one for the books.

Don't think there's much room for them there, especially considering Ride and Slowdive are already playing. 

Just looking through and there doesn't seem to be many festivals they could play here. I'm hoping for a few of their own shows in Autumn then John Peel in 2019.

At community last year, nobody interrupted the Wombats who were sub headlining or Catfish so should be done before Iggy Pop, the music did start early on at about 1pm I think.

Was going to say they could be the last Green Man headliner but they're in Japan that weekend.  No chance of them being added to that Cure date though, it's already stacked to hell. Can't think where else they could do, probably not any slots left for them at EotR or Latitude.

Didn't somebody suspect they'd appear Meltdown, curated by Robert Smith?

[Hutchmaster]

Hell of a long shot, but does anyone  have/know of a ticket going for Frightened Rabbit's Midnight Organ Fight London show? Recently rediscovered the album and absolutely kicking myself for not getting a ticket.

Another thank you coming your way, just grabbed two lots of tickets for the Manchester show. Much appreciate!

[slash's hat]

Well to put rolling stones ticket prices in perspective- just went on axs for Muppets at the o2 (for the kids honest) £75 a ticket!! Suffice to say won't be going.

Imagine how soul destroying it must be for those in the top tiers of the O2 watching a little green spot hundreds of feet away that you assume is Kermit the Frog because of the voice. 

[robillustrates]

I'd love to see the Stones again right after my birthday in London but I will settle for the fact I got to see them with all my friends at Glastonbury and it was awesome.

[robillustrates]

Any info on where else My Bloody Valentine will appear I'm desperate to see them.

They wouldn't recognise the voice these days either

He's not young anymore, what do you expect?

[John the Moth]

Limited interest for you guys given the location I guess, but I’m going here on Saturday...

 

Decent  line up for me, quite a few I’ve not seen before.
