At the end of the day, they will have splurged on QOTSA - but they will make their coin back on that, undoubtedly. Likely means they can get away with this as a free hit, even if they're only going to scramble to first base off it.

Assuming this one will be around £50-60, expect it to half sell as some of the others over the last couple of years. QotSA may well give them a good bit of profit, and James may get close to selling out as it's a reasonably solid nostalgic lineup for that era - for comparison OCS are c. £60 for headline at City Hall next week, so looks to be a bargain in comparison. Probably getting the site for a good price off the council too, and they have a bit of sponsorship from Honda.

Speak for yourself. Wombats + Circa Waves is an elite combo for me, and just down the road. Not even going to wait for freebies, they can have my £60. 

In which case, absolutely delighted for you. But they also feel like they are all over the shop this year and have been for a few. People don't appear to have been too shy of chances to catch them, if that makes sense.

55.45 Inc fees. Almost enough left for a pint!

oh yeah, objectively, I don't disagree. But it's a great combo for me and mine, so I'm happy, particularly as Tramlines isn't to my tastes, so nice to have something local for the summer.

Tickets for their Manchester Arena gig this Saturday, fees only on TfG and others. Up to 4 tickets.

 

I'm the biggest Wombats fan on this forum, but even I can admit that tour was always a push. Was at Nottingham the other night, and was decently full in fairness, but AO Arena is much bigger.

Aye, Nottingham isn't a big, big arena. I'm more surprised The Wombats have just slapped a new arena run out for the end of the year too - though The Snuts might grease a few extra sales as well, I guess.


Would certainly point towards the current arena run being a success. Good on them. Sadly can't make any of the December dates, but sure they'll be about next year as well.

Looks like they cancelled The Wombats date to fit this in?

Oh well spotted! I wonder if Wombats had to pull out, or wasn't selling? Quite a lot of the same undercard at the bottom end

Very strange they don't seem to have announced the exit of the Wombats to make way for this.

 

But would be down for it. Saw him in Leeds the other week but both did not get my request of choice - Thought I'd Died and Gone to Heaven - but was forced to leave earlier for a family matter too.

Wonder how many times Bryan and Mel will play When You're Gone between them. Can't speak for her, but it's been part of a mid-set acoustic double-bill with Here I Am in his shows for years.

 

This is one of my biggest gripes with the Bryan Adams live experience. If you've seen his show once in the past decade, you've pretty much seen it every time. It's a little more different right now, as he's stripped back to a four-piece band - plays a lot of bass himself as a result, as he did in the early noughties.

Considering the bryan adams day. Is the venue any good for kids? Like is it a football stadium or a field with space to move about in with stuff to do etc..

Also any decent parking nearby? Appreciate any advice. 

It's a bowl - field with sloped sides. There's a fair amount of green space, and circus activities you can try, but no amusements. Arena parking is a short walk and I think last year was c. £18. Do not park at Meadowhall as they will ticket you. There is a park and ride off the Parkway, and you would then get the tram. Not sure on costs for that.

Park at Centretainment about 10 mins walk away.  You are not meant to but I have about 20 times when at Sheffield Arena or Don Valley Bowl.

Anyone got any idea of start and finish times for the Thursday? The rnrc website helpfully says to refer to the ticketek website which makes no mention of timings.  

 

I need to use private hire or Uber to get from and to where we're staying (17 miles away) and I'm working on the assumption that I'll have to prebook the trip back due to everyone wanting one after it's finished.

    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
