It's an 'exclusive north of England show' so they're playing somewhere down south around that time I guess. BUT WHEEEEREE? Would say APE again but that’s moved to August right? Other than that, surely can only be Latitude? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they did pretty shit at shifting tickets last time but they sold out All Points East and, well, they have worse ticket-shifters there next year. edit: beat me to it but yeah Edited September 13, 2021 by dentalplan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre91 Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 The Strokes!? What time would they be on, do we reckon? 9pm? Because I finish work at 2:45pm on Fridays and it says it’s a 2 hour journey but Friday traffic… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a brilliant live band so I'd be really happy if they're at Glastonbury too. 3 minutes ago, FloorFiller said: Or BST again? BST does seem a good fit. I wonder if they'll go with 9 days next year given Elton's playing a week earlier than their usual gigs. The Strokes seem a decent fit as an act who won't necessarily sell it out but will be a decent ticket shifter to fill a night while the stage is up.

sisco Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Think The Strokes would be more likely to do their own show at Finsbury Park (like KOL were supposed to be doing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the feeling that booking an act like the Strokes, who attract a slightly more boisterous crowd than they are used to, is a mistake they’ll only make once.

What’s all this about splitting the audience, deckchairs on one side! It must really reduce the atmosphere of the whole event? When I first saw the map, I thought it was a river dividing it ha ha....

Miyn Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 £45 for Strokes and Fontaines is an absolute steal in my book, when you pay upwards of £50 for an act at any sizeable arena. Slightly annoying how there's a golden circle style VIP section, but at-least it's only half of the front section I guess. They're going to have to put a lot of security between the two sections to prevent people from trying their luck and jumping over the barriers. I'll definitely be trying for tickets on this one, Strokes just over an hour away from Manchester is a rare occurrence. I also can't seem to find where it officially mentions that it's an exclusive show up north, and that they'll be playing in the south at some point? Only place I can find that briefly mentions it is an NME article. Was it just in a press release or was it stated elsewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were originally down for 2019 but had to pull out, can’t remember if they were on the poster for 2020 or not but wouldn’t be at all surprised to see them third down the Other again.

They werent on the 2020 poster initially which had me wondering if they were just going to appear on the next one with stage breakdowns and such. Either way, this is a good thing for the moment.

Would personally guess a London show of their own and then maybe a show in Glasgow too in July time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
