Second the echoes that are a bit disappointed at the tour news. I've seen them at the O2 three times now so was really hoping for a bit of a change without having to make the trek somewhere else. I assume the 'feeling more intimate' statements from Matty just mean it'll be closer to the summer sonic/ R&L production levels than the big light boxes. Might head up north for a date and make a bit more of a weekend of it but I'll probably wait to hear the album first this time.

I presume there'll be a new record out by then? Otherwise it's a bit of a weird one doing a big hometown stadium gig two years after your album came out, even if he will sell it out.

I don’t see this as weird at all. It will be well under 2 years since release by the time he plays that show and he certainly couldn’t have done it at the start of the tour. It will likely be the end of the 17GU cycle though, and maybe you’ll get “Would you like to hear a new one?”

Got Harry Styles tickets for my girlfriend this morning and that was just another example of why Glastonbury's ticket process is probably as good as it can be. Ticketmaster just shoved me in a random queue where you're stuck until it's your turn whereas I got through very quickly on SeeTickets by hammering F5. It's not perfect but I much prefer it to being randomly placed in a queue where you have no hope of getting anything.

I think people probably did know but didn't bother mentioning it because he is notoriously shit live nowadays.

It seems he has added the manchester date yesterday which was new to me.

Yeah I have heard that you often struggle to understand what song he is playing at any point. I wonder if the smaller (v BST etc) concert hall venues might make him/it more user friendly? 🙂

I really enjoyed rough and rowdy ways........

My bad, didn't realise he added the Manchester date.

Yeah I'm not sure really, I've had friends who've seen him and just said he was meh. Certainly for the diehards. I get it though, the man has been playing the songs forever, he's probably fed up with them in their original form.

This was news to me.. I've seen him once before but it was in an outdoor festival setting. As already noted, the songs were unrecognisable from their original form. And yet.. I'm quite tempted by the prospect of seeing him in a smaller venue..

    • I'm bemused why Jaissle hasn't been confirmed yet. If he and his coaches are already there, surely the paperwork to send this through must be somewhat sorted and confirmation imminent, no?   Feel like clubs are soft on tapping up now as an industry, right? I swear most deals seem to be a case that personal terms are agreed beforehand. In an older life, this Bruno deal has a potential case imo given the use of intermediaries to plant a seed in Bruno's mind this was a good idea (much I'm prepared to accept last season's mess would likely have had Bruno doubting if he wanted to stay regardless) but the industry seems more forgiving of this stuff at present. Wind seems to be picking up that a deal is about to happen regardless. Shame as I'd have been more willing to accept a move to Real Madrid but it is what it is.   Would be nice if we could show some more balls with this stuff tbf. Feel like the owners are taking a strange lesson from Isak last year in that now, we just have to let everyone go at the first sign of trouble, even though other clubs in a similar boat to us are seemingly more willing to turn back and tell pursuers to f**k off.
    • I wouldn't. U2 would almost certainly be doing stadiums and Muse have been saying they have stadium shows booked. They're the likelier of the two to be doing BST Hyde Park, but my expectations would be to expect them turning up at a stadium.
    • Exactly. One rumour doing the rounds was that they were playing 2 stadium shows in Greece next summer and that I would assume it'll be part of the same tour to do a London stadium gig.
    • Fontaines would be excellent, if not for the fact R+L have them this year. Spurs feels bold - though achievable, of course. 
    • Start your engines.    Going to hazard a guess at St. Vincent, Faith No More and LCD Soundsystem as the more boutique "coup" options.    Expect Rick Astley one among the Radio 2-friendly bankers.    Let the guesswork commence!
