Hopefully next year, would be a great booking. Their tour is the first time I’ve been tempted to get tickets for an event while we’re in the midst of this pandemic.

Haha you’re a braver man than I, I’ve not taken the plunge and bought any new gig tickets yet. Was tempted by Shikari at the end of the year but it’ll probably be rescheduled. Actually tbf I was gonna buy a ticket for Fontaines D.C. in Bristol next year but overslept haha. Saying all that I may not have bought a gig ticket yet but I have bought a fest ticket. Taken the plunge and bought a Primavera ticket for next year and just praying lmao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VCK Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Would be nice to get The Strokes next year if they're unable to retain either a headliner or a sub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a big name but not Foo Fighters/Metallica/Arctic Monkeys/Radiohead/Green Day/Muse/RHCP level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CG31 Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Kasabian have made another statement, even though it’s tough to take definitely the right move considering what Toms done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWaters Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 This is Kasabian over imo. Tom’s voice and style is iconic it’d be a bad move to just carry on as Kasabian with someone new or just Serge in vocals. I think the band remaining together as something new entirely might be the best way forward they just surely can’t go on as Kasabian. Either that or just call it quits and Serge focuses on The SLP from now on are probably the best bets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 17 minutes ago, Gerard the Fab said: I mean in like 5 years time could you not see them getting back together I thought the same after their initial statement but him not admitting guilt until shown video evidence seems to have (rightfully) pissed them off along with his own wishy washy ‘I’m doing well thanks’ statement so I think that bridge has been burnt. Bringing him back would be more trouble than it’s worth - they should just disband and move on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWaters Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 I’m torn on the idea of Serge being the main vocalist. I think he’d smash it going forward with new material, he’s shown with The SLP what he’s capable of when given the full reins to both writing and singing. On the other hand, I don’t think he’d do very well at singing the old tracks that Tom sings. Sticky one indeed for all parties involved.

CG31 Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Reading comments on Insta and one I agree with is about how they’ve sort of thrown him to the wolves. Someone put they could’ve condemned it whilst giving a bit of support and that the statement was uncalled for and gone about the wrong way 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can go fuck himself and the band were right to drop him like they did. Any well wishes to him on their behalf would’ve made them seem like domestic violence sympathisers - they could only cut and run. 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
