The UK shows were originally meant to be a month from now, so presumably anyone who'd scheduled hotels and travel and all the rest is going to be narked.

Was literally talking about how I'd love to see him but don't think I ever will. Begging for him to come up norf

[The Nal]

"The show will feature well-known songs from ‘Play,’ but also a bunch of audience favourites, like Extreme Ways, We Are All Made Of Stars, When It's Cold I'd Like to Die, and even some old rave bangers like Feeling So Real and Go".

Solid.

If he came to the North West I’d probably go see him, only time I’ve seen him was Glastonbury so it’d bring back good memories 

[Dales]

I assume the fuss around allegations has died away. I had tickets to see him at Earth on a book tour/accoustic set a few years ago. It got cancelled when there was a dispute between his version of events in the book and others. I think the main one might have been around Natalie Portman who may or may not have labeled him creepy, but I can't remember the details but he disappeared. I guess enough time has passed since the aborted book tour dates that most people will have also forgotten what all the fuss was about.

Only ever seen him once at Reading back in the 90's.

He was so good headlining 2003. Nowadays the Pyramid is criminally underused as a dance music venue.

What at Glasto? Can’t see him doing anything else with MK Bowl to sell out tbh.

He could 100% do glasto too - anyone who cares will get a ticket to see him then can be added to glasto later once demand is filled at MK

Hopefully not though. he's shite

His only show though, not playing it listed as exclusive either and it probably sells quick at 50 quid

Its 65k tickets, not sure about quick even at that price on a Sunday!

the dance acts big enough to headline it are criminally sh*t (or not active in the case of Daft Punk)

I would say it points towards Glastonbury as he's not going to do an APE show like. I'd guess he's going to be like 3rd Other one day.

I think Blink and The Killers is decent but the rest is average for me at best, so many poor turnouts this year.

Still can't get my head around Hosepipe being at that level...

It's weird how Lollapalooza Berlin is a continual disappointment when the brand can pull out decent line-ups at its premier Chicago event.

He‘s talking about 6 dates in his Reel, so either London or Paris are meant to have a second date. Doubt they hold back an unknown city.

Second night in London is my guess.

Cause Live Nation will spend money when it matters.

You say that, and just from my view but apart from 3 bands on the left, I have no act on the right that is a must see for me. And Lollapalooza Chicago isn't a guaranteed weather festival either. I know the whole...research but if I'm going to invest heavy money into a festival there needs to be around 4 bands a day minimum that I know and like without thinking of checking them out.

Purple are back again x

[WhoOdyssey]

and yes, Jefferson Starship do play a couple of Jefferson Airplane & Starship tunes! Usually just Sara, Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now, White Rabbit & We Built This City.

I don’t think so. Coldplay just announced for big weekend 

[Chef]

Just bagged Moby tickets for the O2 on priority. Standing is £65 + fees which I didn't think was too bad considering some of the ticket prices we've seen recently.

I look at £77 with fees and decided no chance. I'll twicket them later. I honestly can see my ticket master voucher for a gig being my last gig in some time I'll go for. Gigs just aren't worth that money to me now.
