First gig back

[dotdash79]

I don’t think any major gigs will happen before August, it’s just too risky.

Definitely gonna get a ticket for Biffy at Bellahouston on the 25th. Couldn’t go originally due to Glastonbury but that, after everything, will be bliss. 
 

I've been looking at this too; just a shame the GD and GnR shows probably won't happen too. Wonder if they'll put on some replacement shows that weekend, to make the most of having the infrastructure there

I’ve got Haim booked for the 19th, so guess that won’t go ahead. Then next Flaming Lips in July, followed by Sleeper and Bluetones in August, and Roisin Murphy in September.

Mine should be Green Day/Fall Out Boy/Weezer in Huddersfield but I doubt that’ll happen due to international travel so will probably book a festival in July or August but not sure when I should do this or which festival yet.... Thinking small festivals that are desperate to go ahead this summer like Slam Dunk due to be in May will start planning for September time. 

 

Next planned gigs are Burn It Down Festival and Bring Me The Horizon both in September. And waiting for the likes of Fontaines, Biffy, Neck Deep, Sports Team, Yungblud and Mystery Jets to reschedule tours.

They’ll happen in April for the pilots. 

[Gnomicide]

Annoyingly 4 that will be cancelled before then, then nothing until August Bank Holiday when it's Hard Rock Hell Sleaze 😄.

2 days of old men in pants that are too tight for them. Sadly no Bobby Blotzer on the bill.

Will they let cabin crew in?

Baggage handlers only! 

[Matt42]

I’m not getting excited yet as I feel some artists (that are not U.K. based) will potentially move their tours 

[Harry49]

Flaming Lips - Invisible Wind Liverpool. What a great night that could be!

[gfa]

Got super lucky - IDLES on the 21st of June! If thats goes ahead the atmosphere will be insane. also have a smaller Glass Animals show currently in April which could be pushed to early June and possibly that could go ahead maybe at Banquet Records

[gooner1990]

Got to agree with a couple of other comments that just because lockdown is lifted it doesn’t automatically mean all gigs on or after June 21st will go ahead at full capacity. 

[rivalschools.price]

The Ocean on 1st July in the Fleece in Bristol then Pearl Jam in Hyde Park in the same week.

[sisco]

Biffy in April - nope

The Killers in June - nope

IDLES on 18th June - nope

Just booked The Libertines at Rochester castle in July so hopefully that 

 

[Hutchmaster]

Thom Yorke on the 23rd June, have a sneaky feeling they'll postpone it by a month or two to give it some breathing room.

[westholtschic]

Chic 15th July open air in Bristol then , hopefully, WOMAD the week after.

[thetime]

At least we can browse seetickets with a little hope.

I guess the travel industry abroad won't be up and running so the pilots will still be off 

[blutarsky]

Got Caribou at the O2 Bristol booked for May 11, expecting that to be postponed. 
 

First thing post June 21st is Idles / Spectres at the Eden Project on July 11. 
Very excited for that.

We took the plunge and bought biffy tickets last week. Like you it was originally  a no go for us because of Glastonbury.  The announcement from the Scottish Parliament today will decide whether it is a goer.

Download - 3rd-6th June - nah, not happening, but hopefully postponed not cancelled
Rammstein 19th June - feuerzone needs to be full on, but nah, not going to happen way too expensive a thing to mess with
Rock Werchter 30th June but they are planning on moving to September along with the other Euro-fests
Duran Duran - 11th July Hyde Park - could happen, I'll be playing Rammstein on my headphones....
The Specials - 24th Sept - Yay!!!!
Skindred - 2nd Oct - Yay!!!
Bauhaus - 30th Oct - the bats have left the belltower and the victims have been bled

So, this fricken virus can just sod off in May. I've written it a letter, strongly worded.

So assuming June 21st is the first day of no restrictions, and events can go ahead - what is everyone’s first gig/festival back?

 

First gig for me will be Foals at Brixton on the 29th, and then either Truck or Y Not festival I guess (undecided on which yet)

Shit the bed, the answer is now... 'Foals at Brixton'.

Will my Foos/National/Liam extravaganza happen in Lisbon... Jul 4? Hmm. Dunno

Have you booked this mate? May have to have a bit of this!

[gigpusher]

I think Kelis on the 28th of June but I am guessing some of the international acts may still be scuppered based on quarantines/lockdowns etc in other countries.
