CDs, Vinyl, Streams and purchases online (ITunes etc) Dunno, neither feature on the Spotify album top 50, so I assume that’s not counted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spotify also isn’t the only streaming service and probably makes a smaller proportion of the whole than you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2 album tracks with the most streams are neutralised to the level of the average of the next 10 most streamed tracks on the album. The streams of the top 12 tracks (or all tracks if an album has fewer than 12 tracks) are aggregated together and converted using a ratio of 1,000 streams = 1 album sale. Makes a bit more sense in that it will weight towards full album listens as opposed to one off huge tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Promise Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 I don’t think we’ll get MCR next year, I think they’ll take a year to write an album or something considering they’re touring a lot this year I’m more inclined to say Green Day or the Killers or maybe even Metallica Travis Scott-Billie/Tame Impala-Metallica would be solid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quorn Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Since they were last mentioned I had a look at some of Circa Waves' live sets and they look like they bring heaps of energy, so I've gone from being happy with them as an addition to having my fingers crossed they'll be added 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had two songs loved by girls a decade or so ago who are now mums with better things to do Sure a load of boys loved them too, they’re now dads who regret ever putting the kooks on the radio!

thewayiam Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 13 hours ago, Andre91 said: I think the fact that they sold Wembley very, very well on their last tour is evidence enough that they are too big to headline 2000 Trees. In a post-lockdown world where the demand for gigs will be bigger than ever, I don’t think it is unrealistic at all that Architects go for O2 Arena on the proper tour for this album. Get a strong bill underneath them and I think they could do very well. That's what I thought. 02 I think is a little adventurous yet but future wise. 12 hours ago, Alex Winstone said: It's not for me unfortunately, but I think they'll be at r&l I'll listen to it but from what I've heard there are bit okay but then too heavy for me. I don't think Reading will have them though. 12 hours ago, Promise said: I don’t think we’ll get MCR next year, I think they’ll take a year to write an album or something considering they’re touring a lot this year I’m more inclined to say Green Day or the Killers or maybe even Metallica Travis Scott-Billie/Tame Impala-Metallica would be solid I reckon Paramore, Metallica and Eminem is a shout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKOCF Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 Hey does anyone remember that they were going to have a guest viewing area in front of the main stage in 2020 or has FR quietly swept that under the rug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
