fantomas Posted January 18 Report Share Posted January 18 How dare you call Crazy Horse just ‘and band’! 😉 But yes, they are, good to see them back playing live somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernSoul52 Posted January 18 Report Share Posted January 18 Crazy Horse coming back around is delightful stuff. Saw Promise of the Real before, but not Crazy Horse. Mind you, on an economy drive for most of the next six months, and can't really do too many trips south. Will need a date in the north, preferably in Leeds, if they get over.

Karlos12345 Posted January 18 Report Share Posted January 18 (edited) Neil played shows with Crazy Horse in 2023. An April tour has been announced on his NYA a few weeks ago. Dates tba. So this doesn‘t come as a surpise but unfortunately I doubt this means he‘ll be in Europe this year. He was hesitant to tour at all due to his CO2 footprint. So taking a bus around the US seems way more probable than a flight across the pond. Edited January 18 by Karlos12345 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw him play a surprise support slot at The HiFi Club in Leeds back in 2019 when he was road-testing Saving Grace. Definitely the pinch-me-what-on-earth moment of my musical gig life, I'd imagine.

Not sure if that tempts me more or not, mind. Saw them play Dookie top-to-bottom at Brixton in 2013. Its made me 100% for Manchester when i wasnt completely sure, I couldn't ask for anything more than American Idiot in full. I like Green Day in general, but love that album as pretty much one of my favourites ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Dookie and it could have been Warning as that has a few great one's I like but AI was their staple and a huge moment for them. Billy Joe looks like he's just slowed down a little recently too so probably a final chance to see them, it's been a long time. Can't deny I'd have taken Rancid over all over these and annoying The Interrupters aren't on the UK dates. I kinda will be happy for seats and just arrive in time for Green Day.

They played at the Queen’s Hall in Edinburgh, the same venue as originally advertised two years before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they might headline Woodsies against Dua, pretty decent alternative and close enough to start watching Dua and then head off to Placebo. 32 minutes ago, CaledonianGonzo said: Plus they famously don't play the hits so it's an inevitable disappointment wherever they wind up. I think they’re a solid and very good live act. Don’t go in expecting the hits and you won’t be disappointed if you’re a fan. If you’re a casual expecting the hits you’ll be disappointed.

Oh I'd love to see American Idiot in full - I still use CDs in my car and that one gets healthy use - but I'm unsure about seeing Dookie in full as I've already seen it. Nothing but Thieves as support could be a turn in favour as well, mind. I like them and haven't seen them since opening for Muse five years ago.

Tbf I'm very tempted to say they were better than My Chemical Romance when I saw the two of them at Stadium MK 2 years ago, and Placebo's only hits they did were The Bitter End and Infra-Red. At the very least the sound was a lot crisper and heavier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I look back at that MCR show, the more I realise it was a greater moment than it was a show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
