Very!!! Caught them at Citadel, before Fontaines. And these blew me away! Certainly outshone the DC boys on that day. 

Followed it up with a visit to Concorde 2 in Brighton last week where they were just as good!

Their album was all self released and they’ve toured relentlessly for over a year, UK and Europe multiple times without really stopping!

Picked up a ticket for these in Camden. That'll be these and Fontaines within a week.

I enjoyed them earlier in the year.

If they're half as good as that poster you're in luck.

VERY.  Saw them in Bristol this month and loved it.   Intense stuff.

Sold

I've never posted in this thread before. Mostly because everyone knows a lot more about gigs than me and I come here for the tips but...

Algiers are great. Blues/rock fusion and so political. They played Leftfield after Fontaines DC and got a criminally small crowd but IMO smashed it anyway. Dates below. If you don't wanna trust some girl you met on the internet on this, the guardian sums it up pretty well:

One of my favourite discoveries of 2019

Been a fan of these for a while but their latest song was on a new level, genuinely incredible stuff. Any idea whether that's the direction they're going with or if that was just a burst of creativity? 

Either way I might end up at the Manchester date despite (and dont tell anyone I said this) not really liking the pink room as avenue

I wasn't at Glastonbury this year but I'm glad to hear that at least one person went to see Algiers! Everyone I've asked just replies with a ''who are they?''. One of the best bands on the line up, for me.

What's the source on the NIN rumour?

Someone in another thread. Apparently it's not confirmed yet, it's more that theyr in talks but NIN aren't sure if they want to do their own shows or festivals next year. Supposedly they are in talks with Arcade Fire too.

 

So it's not really a strong rumour but still better than nothing

Keeping my fingers crossed that there's some substance in that rumour!

Kasabian + Sam Fender have announced a gig in Leicester the weekend before Glastonbury. Last time Kasabian headlined they played Leicester beforehand (which is why I didn’t go then as I would see them on the farm) so history could well be repeating - Other stage headliner on Friday?

COI - I’m from Leicester so have a biased opinion on the band as I know they get a lot of grief

I meant to see them but missed it for reasons I can't quite recall.

David Essex tour dates and ticket info to drop tomorrow 

I saw him a couple of years ago on one of those heritage tour things (my sister bought me tickets, your honour). On a pretty shocking bill he was easily the worst act, just awful.
