Those predicting that Jack White's new stuff would sound great were correct

God I wish I was going to any of those gigs. Has he ever played Manchester? I feel like Dead Weather did like 10 years ago and Raconteurs probably did a few years before that, clearly isn't too fond of the place. Knew I shoulda gone to that Blackpool gig 6 years ago.

Kagoule have been announced to support Drenge if anyone's going to see them or need a little push to grab a ticket, they're brilliant live. Maybe we'll get a proper release of a new choon before that which would be nice.

Some great footage of them here, they're tour machines, worth checking out if you get the chance in the future, they always seem like they could use the money on facebook ahah

Woke up to news that I've won tickets to see Pearl Jam in a private box at The O2! Cannot wait! :D

Congrats!  That’s awesome!

If you need someone to go with you know where I am!  Sadly missed out on tickets to these gigs.

However, I got tickets for Julien Baker today so am happy enough :)

Thanks mate! This is the first time I've ever won something like this so I'm really pleased as you can imagine.

Won tickets to see Phoenix at the Barrowlands tonight, pretty excited for that. Was going to give it a miss since I saw them at Glastonbury last summer and I thought I’d be quite busy at uni around this time but I certainly can’t complain if it’s free.

Did you go?  I went, had never seen them live before and was well impressed.  Surprised how under sold it was, don't think I've ever been to a Barrowlands gig before where there's only been the main bar open....!

Yeah, I have pretty much the same thoughts as you. It was a great gig, they put on a really good show, but it was definitely quieter than I’d expected. The last couple of gigs I’ve been to there were LCD and The War on Drugs which were both mobbed so it was really noticeable how empty it was. Even the queues at the main bar were pretty small.

Yeah I was at LCD too and it was rammed - when they get a sell out there they really do cram people in, but there was loads of space on Monday.  I thought it wasn't boding well early on when the crowd was turning out to be small and he was apologising for his own voice after the first few songs but it really took off after that, really impressed.

Looks like A Perfect Circle are about to announce some more UK tour dates. They're playing the O2 Academy Birmingham in December according to O2 Priority so I assume more dates will follow.

Also Sticky Fingers are doing two dates at the O2 Forum Kentish Town in June 13th and 14th

LC! update to remind us that WABWAD is 10 years old (later) this year, as well as HONY.

"Commemorations" to be announced soon. I'm always happy with any LC! tour whatever it will be, so looking forward to this.

Official Amy Lawn Prediction: 2 nights playing HONY... + WABWAD in full (interval between the two), one in London, one at the Brudenell. Vinyl package of repressing of both records, original masters.

Most 10th anniv of 2008 debut album tours will be stuffed to the rafters with people who haven't seen the band since then; but this one will be stuffed with people who have seen LC! loads on recent tours and largely missed them first time round, with some OGs.

Sounds good to me.

Own Goals?... Haven't they had the exact same fan base since 2008 who have been to most tours, or is that just me?

Idk man. I saw them in '08 supporting Bloc Party but I didn't know who they were at the time, started to be a fan with Romance Is Boring but didn't get to one of their own gigs until Hello Sadness tour. Judging by the earlier shows I saw being poorly attended support/festival sets I'd say they've cultivated a loyal following over the years and a lot weren't there from the beginning, also many youts at their shows these days who can't have been there originally.

Wouldn’t be surprised at them doing something at Clwb Ifor Bach given their history

    • What is too old for Leeds Fest now ?  I'm going to the Fontaines Saturday in a few weeks at 54 !!!  I may be the oldest there 🙂    Wythenshawe may be an option for WA.
    • Pretty much all festivals lose out on major artists because of production limitations though. Glastonbury is no different to most other festivals.  Lots of acts can/will adapt their tour production to suit festival stages if they want to play them, but some acts with stage designs and routines just don't want to adapt, and would rather just stick with a rigid, well-rehearsed production and take the money for their own gigs, whether that's a lot more than playing Glastonbury, or slightly less than playing some other festivals (but with added complications). Trying to adapt the stage, layout, access to b-stages etc to accommodate a single headliner on a Friday and then having to change it all around for a Saturday headliner isn't really a goer when most headliners can just easily adapt their show to stay on a main stage, if they're so inclined. They have a year to figure out how to perform a song on a main stage and ditch a few dance routines out on a b-stage if they really put their mind to it. It's not that difficult......
    • I would be all over Wolf Alice but may have outgrown this venue.    Also have to consider the schedule they have been on this year so may be on a break.  This last 10 days alone they did Tramlines, New York, Chicago and Kendal Calling.  Although make hay while the sun shines may come into play.
