suttttttt Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Oh Sees tour ends on 24 May at Bearded Theory with no London date and tickets still to shift. Reckon they will be at this but not sure which day. Probably a better fit on The Strokes day but logistics might make them more likely for the Sunday?

Gilgamesh69 Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 I'm really hoping for Grimes and MBV to show up at this. I mean, they'd fit wouldn't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dronx Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Do you think they’ll announce any other uk dates? Ideally somewhere a bit further North? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they’re playing this then it wouldn’t be a total shock to see them pop up at Parklife or TRNSMT as a weird Liam Gallagher or NERD-type booking to get the Early Millenials through the gate. Probably not though. Edited January 29, 2019 by Rose-Colored Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think they end up on the same stage? From memory, last year, the 2nd stage headliner finished as the main headliner began. So I left just before the end of Beck to catch the beginning of Bjork for example. You may miss a bit if they are on different stages but you'd definitely be able to catch most of each if its the same as last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Yeah Yeahs played before LCD though so there’s a chance it’s that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They faced a fair bit of backlash about promoting top tier acts and then clashing them. I think they even moved Future Islands considerably earlier because people were unhappy about the clash with TWOD. Obviously some clashing is unavoidable but I suspect it’ll be more considered next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously some clashing is unavoidable but I suspect it’ll be more considered next time. It was a pain to decide whether to see someone you’d really like to see (St Vincent for example) or have a chance to be near enough to the main stage for the headliner (Nick Cave for example). The only ones I attempted were Lorde and The xx (where I was right near the back for the xx) and Beck and Bjork (where I was really successful at getting to my mates in a decent spot, and only got “tutted” by one person on the way there).

Obviously some clashing is unavoidable but I suspect it’ll be more considered next time. Fair enough. Yeah clashing is definitely going to be unavoidable though for The Strokes day unless the likes of Parquet Courts and Jarvis Cocker play early in the day, which I can't see happening. There's worse reasons for a backlash than 'There's too many good bands to fit in' though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There'll probably be the option of getting them through 2nd hand sites (eg Twickets) nearer the time though if they do sell out while you're planning.

Sure, predictions are hard to make, finger crossed. I may combine the APE Saturday with the Slam Dunk at Hatfield on Sunday. Sounds like a good London Weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a massive site and seem to recall only the Nick Cave day sold out last year. Strokes didn't sell out Hyde Park at all, albeit capacity there perhaps 50% bigger. With that lineup there’s no reason why it shouldn’t sell out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
