The Hydro have them at £43.70 - £60.70, I guess it will be similar elsewhere.

Huh, I was expecting a lot more

Not here but I'm pretty shocked at Slowthai pulling out of the Liam Gallagher arena tour support gig to support the Brockhampton US tour. Obviously cracking America's a big deal but I woulda thought that the LG dates would've been more valuable exposure (and better pay).

I suppose his star is already on the rise over here. He’s getting good press from his album and his live shows are in demand, he probably doesn’t need the limited exposure that’ll come from playing to a few thousand LG fans who have turned up early.

I would've thought a hip hop loving crowd who are aware of him due to his feature on their new album would be more appreciative than the few wellends who actually bother to show up and see him at the LG gigs. The American exposure will've been a big part in it as well I'm sure.

Liam Gallagher doing an intimate gig at O2 Ritz on the 21st of September. Supported by Sam Fender. Unsure of prices

This announcement has caused some controversy in the tiny world of gene, due to it suprising the other 3 members of the band.

Seems it's already sold out. Been trying since before 9 but had no luck

I sorted Frank Carter tickets. 

Manchester pre sale still available.

Spotify pre sale still has Ally Pally available too.

Half Moon Run are touring the UK later this year and I am seeing them in Glasgow. 

They are exceptional. I reckon they are a good chance for 2020 too.

Glasvegas doing acoustic shows in London and Manchester this December.

I'll be honest, I didn't realise they were still about.

Were they surprised to learn Gene still existed too?

Ha. No, I think the split was quite acrimonious so a reunion was always unlikely, even moreso now. I think they were just surprised he had planned a gig playing all the old songs, with a different band backing him, without telling any of the original lineup of this.  They accused him of money-grabbing karaoke.

Manchester tickets for me too this morning thanks to a strategically timed break on the training course I'm on! ?

Can anyone recommend these or otherwise? I know the name and think I've heard a song but have been given mixed reviews before.

I was obsessed with a couple of their songs briefly, but then the album dropped and all the songs sounded the same so I cooled off a lot.  

I'm going to go to the Bristol gig though.

I heard a lot of buzz and gave the album a listen but decided it wasn’t for me. Found it all a bit samey.

I saw them at Primavera a couple of years ago and thought they were incredibly boring live. I'm not a big fan of them on record though so I guess if you like them then you'd probably be more into it. I don't think it helped that they were on after Let's Eat Grandma who were loads of fun.

Beths in Brighton tonight, looking forward to a bit of a boogie on a Thursday night

Cheers, this is basically the impression I'd been given before. I might give an album a listen but I think I'll come to a similar conclusion.

Given the above statements I can imagine their live show might suffer. It's a shame, some people seem to rave about them. 

[uscore]

I think the show could be good if you are in the right state of mind, but yeah, being on after Lets Eat Grandma would be quite a mood shift!

The Beths were proper good again tonight, cant recommend catching them highly enough at EOTR or on tour.

If you do see them at their own gig instead of EOTR  make sure you're there for the support act. Three piece  called Peaness, really lovely harmonies and tunes, really worth seeing
