Vertigo of Bliss/OR, on a Saturday so I don't miss college and VoB is my favourite album, good pairing :) I didn't bother asking anyone cause I was awake when they announced them, like 20 minutes before they went on sale, just went ahead and bought one, so now I'm going alone of course

Well I'm pretty jealous. Anyway I couldn't have bought them by myself as I had £2 in my bank account so I'd have to get one of my parents to do it for me and I wouldn't be able to get in the tickets have to be in your name. Oh well

I agree but probably not to ensure a sell out; moreso to maintain the raucous live atmosphere that'd diminish in bigger venues.

It didn't inside the NME in fairness.

I've just seen Bloody Knees are supporting Honeyblood on their tour including the free gig in Sheffield. Anyone around there HAS to get down to that seriously.

I had to wake my mum and use her card cause I was skint haha, Neil their tour manager spent the entire pre-sale day getting names on tickets changed for people whose family members/partners had bought their tickets for them, so it's got my name on now ;)

Atmosphere for Royal Blood in one of the tents at Werchter was brilliant too

Do you know who Bloody Knees supported a lot earlier in the year? I remember people tweeting about them and it's been bugging me for a few days

If I only knew that :(

Anyway if I asked my parents to go alone I would have been told no but I could have easily found someone but the chance of me getting tickets anyway were slim as most were gone in the pre sale (I'm not sure if this is true though)

I don't understand what the deal is with that free Honeyblood gig. You can just book ten tickets off of SeeTickets in one go it seems and so you could just sell it out if you wanted couldn't you? :P

If you book the tickets do you get an eticket?

Apparently the Barrowlands said 70/75% were reserved for presale or something? Not sure if it's true either. Literally no one I follow on twitter managed to get one in the general sale so I wouldn't be surprised

Went out and bought Royal Blood's album today (I'm surprised they had it in our Tesco, they usually suck for new releases) and it's a belter. Just simple, loud, hard rock music. It's bound to be #1 on Sunday and they're just going to blow up (as if we didn't already know that). I wasn't too fussed about them until I saw them on Sunday. That one performance made me go out and buy the album, something I can't recall doing before :P

I think Viagogo had quite a few which Biffy are trying to get taken down and lots of people were complaining about it

I wanted to go to ASDA to try and get but it turns out that my dad had already gone while I was recovering from Leeds (didn't sleep for 36 hours :P ) but I'm determined to get it this week.

Also Bombay are the same for me as I have a few songs but not a full album (my brother bought them on iTunes) so I'm going to get the first two next time I go to HMV :)

Neil got all the ones that were put up on the days of presale and general sale taken down, and cancelled I believe, you've got to be an idiot to even attempt to sell those types of tickets on though, I think they did really well in ensuring that the majority went to fans

I assumed it was the one with the aggravating voice? Tom I think

http://blink-182online.com/forums/index.php?/topic/25072-does-tom-have-a-twitch/ apparently it's a thing, just not tourettes :P

There was on option to get one delivered but I got the eticket as it was free

Well I'm glad about that. If I couldn't get a tickerat least I know another big fan got them rather than someone who earns a lot more money

My favourite tweet of the day "these royal blood people are blocking ariana from number 1 on iTunes can they stop"

she's no 1 in 78 countries apparently .. well played UK

This makes me really happy. Glad to see some good old fashioned rock doing really well :)
