Ok, hands up, who would have predicted that the only person not to cancel a gig in the summer of 2020 would be Sam Fender?

It actually clearly states at the bottom of that poster that there wont be any jazz

From what I can tell that's for Springsteen on the Pre-sale for AMEX, which starts tomorrow.

I paid €135 for my golden circle in Amsterdam, you'd have to assume, this is largely dictated by BST, and not Springsteen.

I would've gone up to 135 for golden circle but not 200. Well, not twice anyway - sort of dragging the other half to this one so happy to pay, just not that amount.

Aye, Bruce's old golden circle system very much a great way to do it for the uber-faithful.

He does appear to be coin-hunting these days, but frankly, given the bang for the buck a general E Street Band show tends to deliver, can't find it in myself to get as mad as I might with other artists.

Two sides to it, I think. It makes the gold circle cheaper in terms of £ outlay, but then the queuing up for days thing can hit people in the pocket in less direct ways.

Yeah I mean, £95 is a lot but I know I'll be getting a top, top class show and often double the length of other acts.

Id imagine hes sick of seeing the same c**ts every show up front. Nasty weird fuckers queuing all night and attacking people who dare stand in front of them.

People will still do it though. Leaving shows early to go queue for the next one etc. Losers.

It’s the oddballs who spend their days teaching their  kids the lyrics to Sunny Day in the hope they’ll get lifted off their shoulders and onto the stage come showtime.

fucking hell. That's mental. I've gone over £100 for non-golden gigs circle twice, but that is the absolute upper limit and it has to be something big that I desperately want to see. That was for U2 in Singapore for standing so an absolute novelty and more than worth it, and at Twickenham for a lower tier unreserved seat - both Joshua Tree shows, and I only did the Twickenham one originally because it was good value for money to see Noel supporting too. 

Happy with the standing amount for Hyde Park as its a full day of music and he'll probably still tip 3 hours (though hopefully he comes on a tad earlier this time...), so its good value. But $400 for just one act on a standard ticket? Madness.

I feel like I'm prime to be someone who loves Bruce Springsteen.. and I do like him, but not sure where all the mass obsession to see multiple 3-hour sets comes from?! I can't even work out if it's worth me going to see him once (let alone 20 times!).. but I feel a bit of FOMO 😄

Springsteen fans are a strange bunch, they're like some sort of cult. The guy's not even that good.

Mainly as he is known to mix up the sets on different nights....and he takes requests.....so you rarely get the same show twice in a tour.

Might be his last outing so worth a look at least just the once.

A big part is that he really mixes up the set lists so catching multiple shows on the same run is worthwhile.

      I'm surprised they risked it, especially after nearly missing their Glasto 22 slot under similar circumstances  I did see someome say Ellie didnt sound as strong as recently but I'm guessing playing 3 shows in 2 different continents doesnt help that    On the topic though I can definitely see them doing a Fontaines and having a break over winter before a few final Clearing shows next summer

      That's fair on WA - I did recall people thinking Fontaines would take this year off before this was announced.    On the subject of Wolf Alice, they did Lollapalooza in Chicago on Saturday then Kendal Calling last night. Bit of an odd choice, no? Half imagine at Kendal that they would've been just exhausted.

      Victorious Festival 2026

      By eatingglitter · Posted

      Just logged onto the app to start planning my days and there really are a LOT of stages missing. Apart from the Seaside Stage there is no Casemates this year etc. Apart from the Seaside Stage, there are no Casemates this year, etc. Can't see anything about the kids field really. And there's local acts that are normally there like Kojak's Revenge that aren't appearing either.  Normally we get down fairly early but I can't see anything before 3pm I'm keen to see. Only one real clash as well, which is good, but it's thin and it's not thin in the sense of "I've seen a lot of these acts before"
