So they are going to do an arena tour, then headline festival shows in the UK, then another arena tour and Glastonbury essentially last?

This year’s arenas/festivals were in support of album #3

Next year’s will be be for album #4 so technically this is a new album cycle.

I had a small feeling that they’d take the shows outdoor. Must be pretty disappointing for fans just to do the same arena tour two years running. Wouldn’t bet against the same support.

Looks like it's all seated again. I really wish they didn't do that.

Is it really a dealbreaker? It’s not like there would otherwise be circle pits and crowd surfers.

I'm sure their manager tweeted something a while ago hinting at outdoors shows next summer but it's hard to see them selling out a tour as big as that as well as outdoor gigs in the summer. I don't think I'll bother with this one as it's so soon after the last arena tour but I doubt that will stop all the kids with the box tattoos.

I think it'll be Beabadoobe. Last tour Pale Waves were announced immediately as support as an incentive to get people to buy their first arena tour. But now they know they've no problem selling them out, so time to air the more unknown Dirty Hit acts.

I'm going again.

Hang on hang on hang on. I thought I was at their first arena show, which was Birmingham a few years ago, when the rest of the tour was still Academy level venues (Japanese House as support). They swung back round on the tail end for a night or two at the millenium dome. Then there was their first arena tour this year. Am I wrong? Or was it cuz there was no brum date for me to go to?

They played Manchester Arena with the album before this one (wanna say like 2016?), assume that was part of an arena tour.

Yeah this is what I thought. They were doing some arenas before they played early evening Other.

Looks like there was a second leg to that tour that did arenas, which I paid no mind because there was no birmingham date. WELL! At least I can see them for a third time soon.

These things just turn into a mass brawl between Chippies and Hookies so The 1975 chose to skip that stop.

£143 for PSB top price tickets - ouch.

Supergrass not sold out Ally Pally either, thought they would fly out.

Keep my powder dry for (fingers crossed) getting a Glastonbury ticket and hopefully see both there.

Are Supergrass really that big? I know it’s a reunion but I didn’t realise people really cared much about them.

Yeah I've been a bit surprised by how big people rate them in here, figured it was on me not really knowing them. I just figured they were like Ride size but more people knew Alright.
