Sure I saw something about Dan from Bastille saying that they are mostly taking this year off, so I think they'll give it a miss this time.

DomDom1984 Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 It's not that weird when you consider they don''t usually do extended stadium tours here. The odd stadium show here or there to coincide with a festival but this is the first time they've done a proper lengthy stadium tour. Makes perfect sense not to do festivals with it. That said, they're all sold out, so there's nothing to stop them tagging this on, and no doubt Radio1 will ask the question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, they’re doing a massive stadium tour. I reckon they won’t have booked any festivals to make sure they give themselves the best chance of selling that out.

But I reckon they have gotten bigger in the UK maybe big weekend could just be a warm up gig for their tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I wouldn’t call Mad Cool a co-headline, that has two full headliners per night. It’s all semantics! They could I guess, depends how late they book their headliners. I don’t think they will, but it’s possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And big weekend headline sets are only about 50-60 mins long so it could be short for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 The Killers aren't playing any of their own stadium shows outside of the UK and Ireland. It's only festivals. So saying they're headlining shows on mainland Europe doesn't really make any sort of point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found the Falkirk thing quite weird as well but since finding out that it only has 3 sides due to budget, it actually seems perfect for gigs. Actually can’t wait for the show!

Jonesy1 Posted January 23, 2020 Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 (edited) Noticed Green Day’s gig’s just been moved to Glasgow green because of works this summer on bellahouston, could the same happen with summer sessions?
