not tomorrow though is it

Well now I don't know what to believe. I generally trust the person who's name links to the Simpsons but that's not gonna work here.

To be fair we all lapped up All Points East and wtf does that mean?

It's a play on All Points West, which is a book or something.

They're doing an arena tour in Feb. That's bigger than a 6th down Pyramid act would innit.

Hmm true. Pyramid is a bit weird, too, in that once you get past half way down it's a load of random baffling stuff most of the time. I'll settle on either not playing or pre-Kylie.

Worst name for anything is "the wonderwhy" tbf.

Awful name aside, its good news that there’s a growing festival in NE1. Not fussed about either days but I might give Noel a look if he’s not announced for Glastonbury.

Yep. And they're headlining various day-festival-for-posh-types in early June, that based on other acts playing the same spots would put them at approximately the same level as Chic or Noel G.

Ooh, wonder if The National will pop up anywhere down south.

I thought they'd be about 4th down - a bit like Madness I suppose - and unlikely to be much earlier. I think the German date announced today puts an end to them potentially doing Glastonbury though, unless it's post-Kylie as you say but I'm sceptical that they'll end up playing.

I was wondering why @Divein knew about The National's plans. Can't believe I didn't figure this out earlier. That's definitely quite interesting.

The National ???

New Hacienda Classical show for 2019 explains their apparent return, too.

Price increasing a bit as well. I remember last year it was about £35 (not that I wanted to go but I just spotted it) and was thinking if Foals are about that then it might be okay but it's over £50 now. Although I didn't realise how hideous the undercard was so sack it anyway.

[the wonderwhy]

Yeah the undercard is baaaaaad. Noel G's is alright with the Vaccines and Editors. 

Natty Natty Nash-Nulllllllllll yeaaaaaaaaaa

This, Bristol to Manchester is a ballache. 

[the wonderwhy]

They have a similar-ish style of outdoor series of gigs in Bristol too, don't they?

Yeah the ones on The Downs, would be cool to see The National do it although I'm not sure they'd be booked.

Oh I thought they had something near Motion. Skyline I think it was called? 

Downs is at the end of summer so probs wouldn't work

I noticed that the poster for the Manics Cardiff gig announced this morning also had "sounds of the city 2019" at the top of it. Any connection to the Manchester event?

Ahh yeah, although all those gigs got moved this year because the venue wasn't ready so I'm not sure what'll be happening with that.

The National playing 5 mins from my front door on my birthday, might have to be done. At the very least grab some tinnies near by.

Someone in the SJM design team has left that on there by mistake, I reckon.

Always been mega jealous of the three or so flats which have those balconies/roof top access looking right at the stage.

Happy birthday mate.
