Tour Announcements & Upcoming Gigs

[thewayiam]

£65 for Liam Gallagher is pretty good considering it's £80+ a pop for most outdoor gigs these days that size.

Special guests A$AP Rocky and Thundercat in Manchester & Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals and Thundercat in London & Glasgow

Get Live Nation presale tickets next Thursday 14th October at 10am - register and log in to My Live Nation to gain access!

I first saw news of the RHCP tour on The Strokes' Instagram and briefly got my hopes up that was the support before realising they were support for half a dozen US shows instead. Had that been the case, it would've been justified going.

I know little about Anderson .Paak... any good?

Yeah Inwent to that gig, it was more of a “donate a fiver to TCT and you’re in the ballot”’ deal. Not the same as this.

To be honest I’m shocked more promoters haven’t tried this.

Yeah, both in a different scale of event and different purpose. Chances are it'll probably end up being a major thing before long, especially for artists that don't do the "Pre-order our new album to gain early access" thing.

Well I just can't make it Saturday as I'm at Slam Dunk.

Not sure how much the tickets are mind but even a Serg let Kasabian is a great option.

Well general admission is £65 with booking fees it worked out around £73 each

Still expected it to be more. £73 and you know he's going to go very Oasis hit heavy on it.

Better than RHCP certainly. Although he's in the fairly awful Trolls film that my kids watch all the time so I mostly associate him with this brightly coloured c**t:

Urgh... such a shitty premise. ‘The wonderful, heroic pop trolls will save the world from the evil rock music trolls’. Even if it’s the other way round it’s an awful way to indoctrinate kids into thinking in partisan terms about cultural sub-groups.

And though it may get a bit huggy at the end, it’s too little too late the damage is done, and a lot of kids would’ve got distracted by that point anyway.

Yeah I’ve been subjected to it a few times in case you hadn’t guessed, mostly spent glowering at the screen. Troll fatigue!

I did get a tear in my eye though when mini moth declared, unprompted, “Daddy, I like the rock trolls”.

Fuckin trolls.

And it’s got James fuckin Corden.

Yeah I was quite pleased with the price to be honest, not sure if that’s more to do with my low expectations of gig pricing these days

£73 is pretty decent for a stadium sized gig, festival headliner and his name. Think it was over £80 for my Foos ticket next year. 

[Justcalledtosay]

Got tickets for the Saturday. £73 for LG and Kasabian (lite) plus Michael Kiwanuka is just about acceptable.

Kraftwerk as well most likely, both were booked for 2020.

You usually pay more for much worse supports.

[Hugh Jass]

Yikes! Looks like Liam’s Saturday show is already gone. Took about ten minutes!

[Haan]

Mitski selling out in a few mins is quite annoying

[gfa]

got my LG tickets, live about 15 minutes away. Hope the friday supports are good, saturday's aren't really to my tastes so taken a gamble. Killers the day after too, should be a fantastic weekend

Bollocks, had a meeting and completely forgot about MItski tickets

Yup, me and some mates are looking at adding the Barcelona date to Primavera. Only issue is Glastonbury a couple of weeks late and using quite so much annual leave in June.

[priest17]

Those supports for the ol chili peppers are mad, if Manchester got Anderson Paak I'd seriously consider it.

Scala already gone unfortunately.

Liam ticket purchased just after 10am for the Friday. I'm more than happy to have different supports. I'm hoping for Johnny Marr and The Coral. But given Michael Kiwanuka I reckon I can probably aim slightly higher than even Johnny Marr.

Don't worry because they all got bought by touts after about a minute. Every date on the tour too.
