Brand New Tour, June

[problematique.]

So they've announced a short but sweet tour in June, brilliant band, chances?

[Thisisnotasmile]

Likely for Download. There's a couple of months between June and the end of August....

Speaking of The End Of August, 36 Crazyfists self-confirmed for Reading/Leeds on their current tour.

I'd say Download. Or they'd fit in quite well on Linkin Parks day at Sonisphere.

I should have a pre-sale at some point soon if people want it.

Have full dates / venues been announced? NEED to see them but could be a pain in the arse if it's near the end of uni :|.

I'd say like for Download, wouldn't write off Reading though. I'll see them at Download for sure though, would kick me into actually buying a ticket.

Manchester Academy 1 23rd, Birmingham O2 academy 26th, London HMV forum 27th. There's a Glasgow date too.

Arrrrrgh I can't wait to see them again in Birmingham.

I thought they were good at Reading last time, but the set list was poor!

I'd hope to see them in a tent again. Maybe it's just too much hoping!

Also a presale link would be much appreciated ste4_20!!!

I could see brand new playing 2nd or 3rd on the main stage. I cant see them being put back in the nme tent. Same slot as all amrican rejects, plain white ts, taking back sunday etc seems about right.

Lol no chance.

Ohh yeah i understand now . I agree with that. Nothing new to promote so that place would be quite good. Prefer a tent though.

quite an exhaustive tour.

Brand New are a great band, but they care f**k all for fans who aren't in the US. Saw them play at GIAN a few years ago and they just couldn't be arsed.

[DaveElNino]

Contrarily I thought their show at GIAN was one of the best festival sets I've ever seen (though I am aware that I tend to be in the minority with that opinion).

I can't see them doing Reading and Leeds this year - I'd imagine this short run of dates is all we'll get until well after the album's released - I think it'll be December or possibly 2010 before they come back. Not that I'm too fussed - got my downstairs standing ticket for London yesterday.

[ionicmoose]

Their GIAN setlist was horrendous. I can understand a band promoting their new material, but to play a set consisting entirely of songs off your new album? During a 'festival' headline slot?! Ridiculous!

I was almost worried they would do the same during their R/L performance, but managed to slip Sic Transit Gloria, and Okay I Believe You in.

Their actualy tour setlist however was amazing, 6 from Your Favourite Weapon, all bar one from Deja Entendu, then 6 from Devil and God... Amazing!

[DaveElNino]

I know I'm in a huge minority with loving their GIAN set (though I did find the choice of songs, particularly for a festival mostly populated by presumably fans of their first two albums). I was annoyed when I saw them in Southampton that they didn't play that much from TDAG (which was my Album of 2006) so to see them do a set comprising nothing but that suited me down to the ground - especially with the epicness of Welcome to Bangkok with so many drummers on stage closing it.

And did their Sic Transit at Leeds then? We didn't get it at Reading, just had Okay I Believe You - complete with the extended middle section.

[jammy2211]

Well that was a scary few hours, but after gigsandtickets not updated it all, my ticketmaster order freezing up when I clicked confirm, seetickets selling out at 9:06 and ticketmaster soon after, I finally found a link on HMVtickets that worked and got me some London tickets.

Thank **** for that.

[Calm Like A Bomb]

How come you didn't use the presale on Wednesday bud?

Would have been better for your heart by the sounds of it!

I can't believe they played so high up on the NME stage last time? How full was it?

[hearing_aid]

I had lectures 9 - 12 so my mate was gonna use it, and it didn't work, or something.

I think I got seating tickets in the end - HMV doesn't specify at all what their tickets mean. Not too bothered though, better then nothing lol.

[Jaybles]

Got tickets for London and Birmingham.

Standing

Gonna be amazing.

London sold out so fast
