That's a huge tour for them. Fair play but I can see a few curtained seats on the horizon 

They’re very big at the moment so I don’t think it’ll be too bad for them. Shame they’re f**king terrible as it’s always good and increasingly rare to see a heavy band making waves so quickly in this day and age.

I reckon they'll manage to shift The O2 and Cardiff. They'll need stock to soar even further this year though.

Can’t believe this guy has managed to stay relevant and this big for so long. I know he makes music for mums and people who don’t really like music but still, he seemed primed to drop off the face of the earth a few years ago but managed to drag his way back up again.

I thought it was just me.  I gave them a crack a few weeks back and couldnt get on with it at all.

Number one album last week, The Reytons were up in arms.

I saw them described as the Imagine Dragons of the metal world and thought that was pretty spot on. Can’t help but feel that they wouldn’t be nearly as recognised by the rock/metal world if they didn’t dress up all spooky.

Thts probably because the Reytons sold more albums.

Saw him on The Park once upon a time

All I remember is "I say Dizzee, you say Rascal", seemed to last the whole set

Ghost for people who vote Lib Dem was my favourite on Twitter

Do Lib Dems not like Ghost in particular?

Angus & Julia Stone - probably also rules them out for Glastonbury:

I think it's in their manifesto.

Mad seeing Dizzee and Wiley on bills this summer considering their recent track records.

Those gits!

Been waiting for a Sleep Token arena tour for a year or so now, and I think this is going to sell a lot better than some might think. Would be surprised if it doesn't sell out in the first day. I am a massive fan of their latest album and am all for metal having some mainstream attention. Buzzing for it.

He opened for Muse once and what was a weird choice on paper really didn't work in practice. Just didn't really get what he was doing, and was told the same by people who'd seem as support for other rock acts the year before.

I've actually not listened to them so this jump to this level has really caught me off guard.

Honestly, metal's not had many breakthrough successes of late so fair play to them for at least giving a spotlight to that world, poppy-ness or not.

That reminds me of Professor Green supporting Fall Out Boy. Made no sense.

Once went to see Coldplay, who were supported by Jay Z and White Lies.
