If LCD are playing, I'm down for doing that again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlierc Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 This is an interesting one for multiple reasons, whether it's Kings of Leon having Bristol and London as big outdoor shows but the rest indoors, or the GSH. However, what the poster misses is that on Thursday 27 June, KoL have a festival show in Austria. I don't really know if that makes Glastonbury more or less likely. If they have another European show on Friday 28th, they're absolutely out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a good reputation live? Seen 'em twice, and the first time was a little bit hit and miss - was at the Ritz in Manchester though, which I'm less enamoured with. Second time was at O2 Academy Leeds, another venue famed for its sound issues, but they knocked it out of the park. Tight as a drum, and it helped they were touring the hits. Feeder tend to like playing the new record though. I'd expect at least a quarter of their set to be material from their latest, if not more. Depends if you're happy with that concession. Where's your nearest date? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's your nearest date? A fairly contrasting pair of emotions though. I know they have said they have a new double album on the way, so I suspect that songs on there will feature whereas I only know a handful of songs. Nearest show is the Oxford O2 Academy, which I had great sound at for a Band of Skulls gig and mediocre sound for a Marmozets one. And presumably main room, not the upstairs smaller room where I saw The Japanese House last October. Think I'll wait until seeing setlists from the first few shows of their upcoming tour and see what they look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I don’t doubt that - they’re good. But I know a lot of people here who like Blur and who might be challenged by some of Jockstrap’s more esoteric material. If they only went because they liked the “woo-hoo” song… 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
