Tour Announcements & Upcoming Gigs

[Hugh Jass]

I think Moz’s campaign of relentless twattery over the last few years has ruled him out of any future Glasto appearances any time soon.

How long are we thinking until these get cancelled then?

Quite a short on sale to performance date given it's arenas. They'll probably still sell to the die hards who either ignore or agree with what he says. Their punishment will be a set heavy with new songs, and very few classics.

Looking forward to him teaming up with Tommy Robinson for a 1975/Greta Thunberg type collab.

No date or venue confirmed yet, but The Streets are doing a big outdoor show in Birmingham this summer. Apparently will be their biggest hometown show

Posted in the other touring thread as well but relevant in both. Very excited for this. I'll be at the Leeds date. 

Presale tomorrow.

First thought for this was Digbeth Arena but I'm sure that's only around 3500 cap and the promoters have said it's 10,000 so not too sure on a location

Do they still do gigs in Perry Park?

Not sure what the capacity was , but they had that Peaky Blinders fest in Digbeth last year; that was outdoors and Mike Skinner played. Hopefully not though because I think it was just a carpark...

I heard word on this about two weeks ago, Bham council wouldn't issue permit, not 100% on this but heard it's actually going to be in West Brom under Sandwell council, lol

They may do haven't heard about one in a while though but could be a decent shout

Yeah I went to that, they just used Digbeth arena for it and the surrounding streets. Went for Foals there as well and it didn't seem like it could hold 10,000

I’d go to a gig at The Hawthorns just for the sheer novelty of it.

Doves and Johnny Marr headlined it back in July, plus MADE festival is there now. If The Streets headlined there that would be not far off a dream gig, stones throw from where I grew up

[Ayrshire Chris]

Posted this on another thread, Glasgow bandstand this summer has Cat Stevens, Primal Scream, Van Morrison, Richard Hawley, Edwin Collins, Belinda Carlisle, Rufus Wainwright, KT Tunstall, Jesus and the Mary Chain, Susan Vega.   

Surely some of them for Glastonbury? 

[zahidf]

Bright eyes playing New York june 20th. Unlikely for glasto I'd have thought but not impossible.

Remember going to a R1 one big weekend there about 15 years ago.

I'm also old enough to remember going to the Radio 1 Roadshow in Sutton Park as a small child back in the 80's.

Aye, would definitely be my preference. Need to get me a ticket for Brighton, good to see them moving up through the venues

Excellent! I reckon I'll be in for Leeds. Had to miss them last time they played so glad they're back.

I shall probably see you there! They were great at the Haunt. 

[Quark]

Was really surprised at how rabid the fan base was there (in a good way)! Did not expect that at all

I interviewed Aaron last year when they played the Haunt, and not surprisingly, Glastonbury is on their must do list.  I asked him again at the Dome in December when I bumped into him, and he raised crossed fingers, so here's hoping!

Got my tickets for the London gig in April!

I was hoping "The Variety Bazaar" might have been in Sutton Park...
