There is an O2 Priority one on Wednesday and I'm sure there will be a venue presale that will be emailed out if you subscribe to the mailing list

Have just done that now, thanks.

Anyone here seen Hot Dub Time Machine? Any good? Thinking of maybe going for my birthday but not sure if it's worth the cost

I was also amazed that few seemed to know Born Under Punches or The Great Curve (the best songs played IMO). Born Under Punches was the only TH song that didn't have the whole crowd stood up (only about half did).

Not on the Greatest Hits?  I know Remain In Light is regarded as the best album by Head and co. but I dunno if it's their most accessible work.

It’s a complete guess, but they had someone called Alex Cameron supporting them on their Australia tour, and he’s also playing Latitude on the day they headline so maybe he’s support for the uk as well?

It was announced today that it will be Juanita Stein. No idea who she is but I believe she has supported them elsewhere.

Good night out, yeah. Saw one in Edinburgh a couple years back.

I was quite amused last night, at how the audience got up and danced for the talking heads songs, and sat down for the others. The wife thought it was very rude. :lol:

The whole show tonight was amazing but those were 2 of my highlights too along with I Zimbra

Has anyone seen the David Byrne tour yet? If so could you let me know approx time he came on stage and how long he played for. Thanks

He came on at 8.45 in manchester last night played till 10.30 . Absolutely brilliant . Crowd were on the feet most of the time to be fair lot of talking heads songs were upbeat tracks that people dance to . The couple of times some sat down were slower tracks . I thought it was fantastic this must be the place  blind burning down the house worked brilliantly but so did everybody's coming to my house. Enjoy it'

Managed to secure a ticket for Foo Fighters this Saturday. I live right by Olympic Park and have never made it to a show so quite excited for this one!

[JSmurphy]

Over £100 for golden standing at Smashing Pumpkins' Wembley gig. Not surprised but rules me out. 

[Odessa]

Pusha T is over here in December but only London unfortunately.

Btw, my mate can't go to QOTSA at Finsbury Park anymore so if anyone wants to buy a ticket for below face value then give me a shout!

First David Byrne then Spiritualized now this. Fuck seats!

Good news, it looks as though there will be standing tix (£35) for Death Cab. Hopefully that is stalls standing rather than rear stalls/circle standing

Yeah it was fantastic last night. Will be surprised if I go to a better gig all year! Hope he is still touring next year as a WH headline set would be perfect.

Juanita Stein & Alex Cameron have both got main stage slots at Latitude this year... Seems like The Killers are looking after the pair of them.

Which is nice.

Juanita Stein is also playing their day at TRNSMT.

Ooooo that Voidz tour is definitely a potential for me. Unlikely considering how few shows they've done here but has anyone seen them and can vouch for the quality of their live shows? I know The Strokes aren't great so dunno if its the same sort of thing there.

The Strokes have their moments still. Thought they were great in Hyde Park a few years back...

I think they played one show in London once at the Coronet and it didn’t sell out so those with experience of seeing them will be few and far between. Big jump in shows here but that’s understandable with somewhat of a renaissance. The high ticket prices are fucked though.

Imaginable different like. They’re not all singalong anthems that allow band to get away with doing the bare minimum, as with Strokes gigs.

Yeah seeing they're charging 30 quid for village underground killed my interest a bit. 

[Odessa]

Yeessss well happy with that Voidz tour. £25-30 is about what I'd have guessed tbh, I don't think that's ridiculous. It's not like Thom Yorke who charges Radiohead prices for his other projects.

That's probably worth a go, I feel like I've already got something on the 7th though, need to get my gig list in order.

Ended up buying AHJ tickets after a few drinks the other night, can I wack The Strokes on my seen it live list if I go to this one as well?

 

Edit: Damn Car Seat Headrest is at Albert Hall that night, I haven't got my tickets yet though... Ahhh I'll choose one of them on payday.

Phoenix and Beck supporting in some of the American dates, something like that would make the price easier to swallow.

Other way around, I’m sure.

[Mash011]

The Voidz supported by Beck eh? Take it they'll be next year's Pyramid sub then.
