I hope they accidentally announce Foals instead of Tory Taylor in January 15th.

Any word on prices for the Shepherd's Bush gig? Gonna try for a few tomorrow and wanna know if I'm looking more at £30 or £65.

I've been trying to find this out too but had no luck. But I'm gonna guess about £40ish? From what I remember of last year's War Child shows, I think they were around the same price as the acts normal shows

I bought tickets for the War Child Bastille gig and that was £51each inclusive of booking fees etc. I know its a different band but might give a clue for the price they are after for an established group.

[JSmurphy]

Thanks guys.

[Gilgamesh69]

Got a ticket! Bloody expensive though. Anyone else successful?

[JSmurphy]

Yep got mine booked. No trouble at all getting tickets which was a nice surprise. 

[Gilgamesh69]

Awesome, see ya on the floor matey, should be a great show 🤞

 

 

[Dales]

Very surprised I got tickets after coming up as unavailable a few times. More expensive then the Olympia tickets but ha ho its for charity.

[Gilgamesh69]

I read something about an after-party. Entry is included with the VIP tickets but I'm not sure if that's necessary to enter. Maybe a bunch of us could go there, accost Yannis in the loos, and find out once and for all if they're at Glasto this year 😄

[JSmurphy]

Hoping for a few lesser-known treats for this. Any of: 2 Trees, What Remains, or Out of the Woods please.

Hello Everybody, 

Josh Leach & I did a cover of 'Spanish Sahara' if you're interested. If not, have a look anyways.

New songs next week, looks like it’ll be the one they played live this summer. The double album thing didn’t really work for me, the first album was good but the second was a bit of a disappointment and overall I’d say they’re Foals weakest two albums. I’m looking forward to new stuff from them though, interested to see what direction they go in.

Bring on the Pyramid headline slot!

I'd forgotten that Foals were an actual band and not just an efests meme.

[TheWaters]

That new one they were playing in summer was really nice, surprised if it’s the lead single though it didn’t really give that vibe at all

As with all bands like them who attempt the double album thing, there’s a really great single album in there for sure, but like all bands like them, given the opportunity to whittle it down they undoubtedly would’ve chosen the wrong songs to keep anyway. 

The days of me being excited to hear new Foals stuff are pretty much gone now as I think they’ve just settled in to their comfort zone now, but always willing to be pleasantly surprised.

Interesting - I've struggled with some of the album tracks on previous Foals albums but haven't here. I agree there's a good 12-14 song album in this, but there was enough to keep me interested across the two LPs.

Was about to ask aloud if they'd been announced for any dates next year only to remember I still have tickets from a deferred Brixton show. Unless there was a festival announcement that had passed me by.

Yup, the new single is Novo (Wake Me Up), which they played in the summer. Would be unusual timing to announce a whole new album though, given they've still not properly toured Part 2.

They've barely been able to tour for the last year or two so they probably have had nothing else to do than write and record music.

[sisco]

I'd imagine they’ll be back on the smaller festival scene this year.  We’re meant to do Kendall Calling in 2020 so I’d expect they’ll be back for that, maybe Victorious Festival

[fraybentos1]

They’re subbing at trnsmt in July too
