Slightly weird selection of places.

Wonder if they're going to slot in something like BST or a London arena show in there after Milton Keynes sells out? It's really obviously missing a north west date too.

Huddersfield is halfway between Manchester and Leeds.

Last tour featured 2 London O2 dates announced after the Olympic Stadium show, so not necessarily impossible.

Well given I live near MK and like both Muse and Royal Blood, this feels like something to go for. I'm somewhat surprised that the Bowl is the venue listed, given it hasn't been used since 2016 and I thought was out of the live music game. But there you go.

Slipknot were gonna be using it in 2020 for Knotfest. 4 year break is a lot, still.

Indeed they were - a friend was so enthusiastic for that and was pretty gutted it wasn't rescheduled. But yeah, a 7 year hiatus is quite a lot, not least as I thought the 4 gigs held at the MK Dons stadium down the road meant that was taking over as the main big gig venue in the city.

At one point they were talking up the idea of turning it into a sort of entertainment centre with a water park, but that got dropped after it got planning permission.

Oddly, the GigsandTours page says the show is at stadium mk, even though everyone else is saying Bowl.

I guess technically I can say I've seen Muse at the Bowl before tbf. Back in 2010, they did a week of rehearsing there before going on a stadium tour and it was cool to sit in a nearby park and listen in.

perfect , will get mine tomorrow . MK too 

likely hood of not being able to get tickets at 9am?

Was surprisingly smooth. Queue moved quick and all sorted in under 5 mins. Although perhaps everyone was trying for Coldplay tickets at the time!

Paul & Jacqui U.K. tour all tickets £30 and support from Billy Bragg

 

 

Paul Heaton is such a good man. He really, really lives his values. In days of dynamic pricing crap etc it's so nice to see someone like him.

If an arena tour is viable with tickets £30 it puts a lot of stuff into perspective with acts charging £60-£70 and blaming it on increased costs. I know they'll not have the full production of other arena shows but it'll have most of the other costs.

    • What is too old for Leeds Fest now ?  I'm going to the Fontaines Saturday in a few weeks at 54 !!!  I may be the oldest there 🙂    Wythenshawe may be an option for WA.
    • Pretty much all festivals lose out on major artists because of production limitations though. Glastonbury is no different to most other festivals.  Lots of acts can/will adapt their tour production to suit festival stages if they want to play them, but some acts with stage designs and routines just don't want to adapt, and would rather just stick with a rigid, well-rehearsed production and take the money for their own gigs, whether that's a lot more than playing Glastonbury, or slightly less than playing some other festivals (but with added complications). Trying to adapt the stage, layout, access to b-stages etc to accommodate a single headliner on a Friday and then having to change it all around for a Saturday headliner isn't really a goer when most headliners can just easily adapt their show to stay on a main stage, if they're so inclined. They have a year to figure out how to perform a song on a main stage and ditch a few dance routines out on a b-stage if they really put their mind to it. It's not that difficult......
    • I would be all over Wolf Alice but may have outgrown this venue.    Also have to consider the schedule they have been on this year so may be on a break.  This last 10 days alone they did Tramlines, New York, Chicago and Kendal Calling.  Although make hay while the sun shines may come into play.
