I’d be surprised if Manchester was more than 3k. I think Ally Pally is significantly bigger than both. Manchester is around 2,600. Glasgow (according to Google) is 1,900.

Glasgow (according to Google) is 1,900. That makes sense then, with London having the larger population and more accessible to most of the country.

jump 906 Report post Posted August 25 I've never been a fan of the Alley Palley, crap sound and a crap hill. They use to have this stupid system where you had to queue up to spend money on a drink token and then queue up again to get the drink. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was there for LCD and couldn't get what everyone was on about, loved it, then I went back for Robyn and ye it was bad. Must've unwittingly picked out a peachy spot first time, or LCD's intense nerdery means they can rig up to sound amazing anywhere. I do dig the hill though. I think it's a nice location and a cool building. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazy to think where they played at Reading this year, ADTR didn't have a huge crowd either really, easy to walk in/out mid set if you wanted to.

dentalplan 6,861 Report post Posted August 26 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). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
