Foals

They did just seem to keep adding dates over lockdown. They had the tour for 2020, then a couple more for 2021 and they’ve all moved back to 2022 together with some new dates on top. Will probably have an intimate tour for the new album too, and then a winter tour.

Hard to get too much Foals tho.

Yeah I remember an intimate tour for Part 1 it must have been pre covid and managed to bag tickets for them at liquid rooms in Edinburgh pretty small venue. Unreal. Wee Barrowlands show or something would be tasty but I doubt it.

They're always about Foals which is great, pretty consistent touring and album releases for years

Would love that. Maybe being a longer set they may squeeze a couple in. Milk & Black Spiders is possibly my favourite song of thiers

Milk is a belter live too, saw them play it once when they toured Holy Fire. I’m sure I remember reading that there were plans to bring back After Glow as well, early lockdown though so maybe they’ve decided to bin it

Re-watched their secret set last night.

Doesn’t get much better than that really, everything you’d want from a festival set. 

Full headline set on The Other will be epic. 

I missed Spanish Sahara on that one, but no doubts they will include it in their headline set (I can imagine around one hour and a half set).

Yeah that was the obvious omission.

Chuck in 2AM, Wake Me Up, Black Bull, The Runner, On The Luna, Cassius and one more new one and you’re about there I reckon.

How long do Other headliners usually get? An hour 15, maybe 30 if they’re lucky? So if I’m being slightly ambitious but maybe even one or two songs need a cut:
 

Wake Me Up

Mountain at My Gates

Olympic Airways

The Runner

2am

-New song-

In Degrees

Spanish Sahara

My Number

Red Sock Pugie

Black Bull 

-New song-

Inhaler

What Went Down

Two Steps Twice

No Providence no party

I agree that it should be there because it’s a banger, but Foals have gotten to the point now where their setlists have become pretty predictable due to how much material they have and how many ‘mainstays’ they now have, and Providence hasn’t really been a mainstay for a few years now. Here’s hoping they bring it back though (in place of Mountain, hopefully).

I'm not sure how I feel about Foals headlining the other. I've seen them twice, and have got tickets the week after Glasto. If they're the best option, I'll probably sell my tickets for Manchester. I think they're good, but there's ample opportunity to see them, so I'll be slightly underwhelmed if it's my Friday night choice. Although it will be a good party and not a bad first headliner back after 3 years.

It's being talked about in a few threads but 'big news' coming tomorrow. Quite possibly album release date and preorder details. The last two (maybe more) albums came with an intimate tour for preorders so y'know... stand by your wallets.

Ah do we not already have an album release date? Had it in my head it was just after Glastonbury but maybe I made that up.

'Summer' was all we've heard officially so far, I believe.

Would fucking suck if it's just after Glastonbury. Suck for you, because I'm seeing them after Glastonbury.

There's a tracklist that nobody has posted. But it's just words innit. Doesn't mean anything right now. There is, however, a song called 'The Sound', because jokers on www.eFestivals.com weren't having enough fun saying "The 1975 vs Foals" already.

What’s eFestivals.com?

Just went looking thru old videos because they posted the new video for 2am and man does this have me psyched for Glasto and Foals and Foals at Glasto.

Also noticed a pre-fame Arlo Parks is in-shot in the first few seconds but I'm not psyched for her at Glasto or in general.

 

That's a tremendous video.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
