They could play Eden Sessions or do some other on-off somewhere. Or... support the Stones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are they agreed a 'northern exclusive' because there's fuck all up here, and then they left the option open for southern shows if they came up. Then they couldn't wangle anything so the northern exclusive just becomes their English exclusive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't really do arena shows or I'd have said that. Supporting the stones would be a very expensive support - where are stones meant to be? Just now, dentalplan said: Eden Project?

Couldn't imagine anyone going to it, I'm a massive National fan but I'm not missing Macca for them. It wouldn't even be like The Stones v Chase & Status where at least there was a broad difference in genres and demographics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not APE, the only free date is a sunday they are in the US on. Eden Sessions not a bad shout although i can't see any reason why it wouldn't have already been announced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barneym Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 I love the National but I’m going to be at Macca no matter what else is on as it’s a once in a lifetime and almost certainly the last time I’d get to see him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somto Unigwe Raphael Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Putting The National on opposite Macca but be a stupid decision by Glasto. Would be on par with triple captaining Trent Alexander-Arnold over Mo Salah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Martini Police Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Macca v The National would be absolutely disgusting. Would be missing one of my favourite bands of all time in the spot I'd most like to see them in, but it would have to be done. And a lot of National fans would feel this way, so yeah, it would be a terrible idea. Get them on against Kendrick instead (I'd say Billie but we know that isn't happening).

AlexOvd Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) A clash between Pet Shop & Macca is even more hard and to be honest. I can imagine a way younger crowd for The National while PSB and Macca is a generational clash. Edited February 25, 2022 by AlexOvd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There aren’t going to be many National fans who wouldn’t be interested in seeing Paul McCartney.l, especially as this is likely to be one of the last chances to see him in such a massive setting. Hell most of the band would probably prefer to be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what I’d do on Sat. Maybe watch Phoebe Bridgers then rock up for the rest of Macca. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
