Apparently it was cos they claimed on insurance for the 2021 tour that they couldn't tour in 2022 without losing millions. Guessing its the same for most bands and thats why suddenly everyone's touring next year.

Ambitious venue in Glasgow.....

But timing looks good to get the Lep on for the El Pointo Dadrock Slot.

On the Live Nation site it bills Def Leppard as headliner for Sheffield and London, and Motley Crue as head for Lytham and Glasgow. Hoping I can get a big green coach to the sheffield one.

Would never have thought DL or MC as Wembley headliners. Even both together it seems a stretch tbh.

Wonder if they'll have much of an undercard... Could be a fun day with a 1-day fest vibe to it.

Do they? Now that is interesting. I mean, Def Leppard always would have topped at Sheffield, but half-expected them to top at all UK dates.

Think they were pretty good at ensuring equal set sizes. Dependent on dates across the rest of Europe, feels like The Darkness would be tailor-made for a support slot.

Interestingly, only the wembley and sheffield dates are on o2 Priority.

Just booked a £53 refundable at the premier inn in Sheffield in case there's no coach.

Yes, get The Darkness, Extreme, Reef, and The Struts - I'd be all over it.

Def Leppard doing 23rd and 24th June in Europe, so I'd say that's a no for the pyramid

I thought she was long since retired for health reasons.

Get her in. Pyramid Stage in the Burt Bacharach / Sheryl Crowe timeslot.

The gig is a week before Glasto. Who knows if she could do the travel and such.

Will be very interested to see who pops up underneath here. Would happily take Poison, but imagine they'll be leaning towards UK/European acts. (Europe themselves, maybe?)

Who knows but at least you have an idea of what they could be aiming towards. The gigs here a started at 6 and both Motley and Leppard did similar length sets. Its just a matter of who is closing the night.
