vintagelaureate Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 I'll be trying for Manchester and possibly London. The Victoria Warehouse is a bit of a nightmare venue for getting home midweek though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt weird they signed up for that this summer and then were only sub-headlining the NME tent. This time round they can surely bargain up. And if they're contractually free to fill Glasto slots...I'd love to see them unleashed on the Other, subbing ideally. A teardown at sundown. That “exclusivity” for R/L was strange considering they had such an awful slot - subbing the second stage just as people would be getting ready for Rage... Probably the worst possible slot of the whole weekend. Edited August 25, 2020 by Hugh Jass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotdash79 Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 Might try for Manchester but I begrudge the venue. They would be amazing in the Apollo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure that they would have been able to play main if they wanted but perhaps preferred the opportunity to play the tent. You'd think Reading would have probably preferred them on the main with the flavour of acts on main that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played every other festival in the country the year before. I'm not sure the exclusivity would have been hard to bargain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasperella Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) Trying for the pre-sale (obviously). Feels weird not knowing if it will go ahead....but if it goes ahead then presumably Glasto will too 🙂 EDIT: Aaaaand purchased. Hooray! How many times can I see IDLES before it starts getting weird?

When you know the answer let me know... Straight forward pre sale that one - Manchester secured, debating Brixton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

priest17 Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Extra dates being added purely from pre-sale tickets is a bit mad isn't it? Kick in the teeth adding a Friday Manchester date when a midweek Viccywarehouse gig is a ball-ache for some. Very odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries, I bought 4 x Glasgow cos it looked like Brum had sold out, then tried to get a single Brum ticket and it went through. So looks like I'm going on a bit of an IDLES tour... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Welp I had absolutely no intention of buying tickets for this as I was hoping to just see them at Primavera but got caught up in the Friday date hype and bought myself some tickets. Sure hope the new album doesn’t suck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Pee Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Bought for Thursday in Manchester and the then saw the extra date email.. Kkhhaaaannnn !!!! Calmed down and ended up buying 2 for Friday as well. Agree with all comments about Viccy Warehouse. It's not great. Anyway. Will go with the wife Thurs and mate on Friday and sofa surf for the night as getting back to the Wirral on public transport is a complete ball ache.
