This will interest a few of you I'm sure. I'm gonna make an effort to give them a proper listen before this tour. 

Only just saw them at Liverpool but might well go to this Manchester show too as they were ace.

Yeah they were really good in Bristol the other night so I'll be getting tickets for this. Assuming the Tramshed date is Cardiff?

[Jericode]

Aye, Tramshed is Cardiff, just checked for it on the website and it;s there.

They had an argument over which cutie they were gonna pull.

No no, the friend is a cutie that I was trying to pull. Didn't work out

 

I nearly snogged a cute lass at The  XX performance on Saturday. Came really close but then her friend interrupted. Got her number though and turns out she works for MoD! Fun times

All the gigs make sense now.

Just had an email off MGMT with a link for presale tickets. On sale 9am tomorrow. It's through AXS for the Manchester date.

How big are snow patrol now if Glastonbury did book them

2nd or 3rd down the Pyramid I'd guess. That's a good sized tour. But idk, the likes of Manics go on arena tours and get relatively low slots so it's hard to judge.

Be interesting to see how they sell with it been a while since the last album. Before that there were headlining smaller festivals and the tour is very similar to the venues that Florence is

I could see them subbing someone like Elton or Sheeran (if he ever came back).

[Quark]

Yeah, don't see them as headline by any stretch but they'd pull a crowd. New album's actually not bad

[Mash011]

Snow Patrol aren't getting a sub booking in 2018. Come on. 

[kingcrawler]

Snow Patrol didn’t even get booked much in the 00s did they? Can’t see them being booked now.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Pa Patrol and the lads headlined the Isle of Wight.

They’re doing an arena tour in the winter so it wouldn’t be beyond the realms of possibility.

Remember seeing them on Other in the mid 00’s one year.

Glasto wouldn’t throw them a bone back when they had that song off all the Children in Need adverts. They had The Kooks sub, with that song off Jackie Big Tits.

In 2004 when they first had mainstream success. Haven't been booked in the years since as they've gotten bigger and I don't see it happening now either.

History will be the judge of Jackie Big Tits.

Actually, much like the Jackie jongleurs, they could be the Sunday afternoon noughties nostalgia John Peel special guests.

I’m gonna lose my shit in 2021 when The Guillemots reform and nail that slot.

Maggie Rogers was a highlight of last years fest for me. She seemed so excited and happy to be there, it was infectious.

[suttttttt]

I'm guessing that MBV gig announcement in Bristol was premature as I cant see the tweet any more? Hopefully it means there will be a string of dates announced soon.

[Gnomicide]

In a bid to up my eFestivals rep to previously unseen heights, I'm off to see Stereophonics in Libpool tonight.
