If isolation period comes down to 5 days at some point that'll help tours hugely, and March/April time sounds about right considering now/into Feb is probably the worst time. Any kind of test to release situation would make it even better. Doesn't need to fully go away for these things, it just needs the bands to feel comfortable 

For example Chvrches I'd be surprised if they do it in March - they didnt do states with no rules on their US tour from looking at some Instagram comments the other week, so I'd be surprised if double jabbed only and self administered test, or even no rules at all, is good enough for them 

I did see today that Chvrches are playing the NME Awards at Brixton Academy on March 2nd - confirmed they'll be doing How Not To Drown with Robert Smith playing with them, which would be pretty cool (was a decent get for the album as is) and a sign they're willing to come along for the upcoming tour.

It's funny, I was about to buy a ticket for this date a few days ago! Brockhampton was meant to be at the start of Feb in Bristol too which has been cancelled. Wonder if Jay would've performed his Jesus Lord verse.

Kae’s all but guaranteed for June, I reckon. Can’t wait for their new album.

I think they'd smash a Pyramid slot.

I’d have been sceptical of their widespread appeal before West Holts but not only was the crowd huge, Kae absolutely smashed it with a mesmerising set.

Their last appearance was at Park, wasn’t it? So definitely due a bump. People’s Faces remains a seminal Glastonbury moment.

A batch of tixs for Foo Fighter's UK tour has just been released for anyone who missed them first time round.

Streets gigs have been cancelled now, no new dates incoming unfortunately

Brockhampton splitting up after their O2 Academy and Coachella shows with everything else being cancelled. Was supposed to be seeing them at Primavera so that’s a bit of a fucker, especially after the two year wait. Jealous of those going to those London shows - they’ll be fun as hell.

Crikey, £50+ for Brockhampton? Shame both* shows are sold out 😞

Loved them back in 2017 when they were first coming onto the scene, haven't seen them since 2018 and was looking forward to their shows in Manchester next month before they cancelled them a few weeks ago, knowing that i'll maybe never get a chance to see them again now is salt on the wound

I seen this when I was scrolling tonight and thought some of you might get a laugh out of this too. I’ll cancel my trip to Mad Cool and stay in Sunderland for this if they’ve actually got 30 headliners

[K2SO]

Tom Meighan (ex-Kasabian singer, convicted abuser) has posted on Instagram saying he is touring "Spring/Summer 2022" including UK Festivals.

I sincerely hope Glastonbury are not one of those festivals that are booking him, but I feel like they'd have their finger on the pulse with this and we should have nothing to worry about anyway.

30 headliners seems a bit much 

[Padjeq]

Someone should tell them if they've got Polyphonic Spree to reunite, that's still only classed as 1 headliner.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Pearl Charles's tour cancelled 😢 

[Memory Man]

Just copped tickets to a one off Squid gig next friday in manc (YES)

Honestly the way they've gone about cancelling these gigs has soured me on them massively.
