Do we know who's supporting on the other UK dates yet? I know This is the Kit are supporting in London but haven't seen anything for the other dates.

I keep wondering this too! Not long for the Ireland dates and Manchester ones! I was thinking Justin Vernon with Aaron Dessner but Bon Iver has gigs those nights

Haha nah I'm just exaggerating for effect but I am in love with it. Every song is amazing to me.

Very good shout that - and always falls on the same weekend as Latitude which could be a ballache. As incredible as their set was in 2016, perhaps Melvin dropped a ball by getting them in and not waiting for this record - what a show it would be.

Nah, I don't reckon he did. Their day sold out, it was an incredible set, and they played a good crop of SWB songs.

Just having a listen now, sounds like some folky - Laura Marling type stuff.

It was one of the best nights of my life and the first time I'd ever seen The National so I'm not doubting it went down a storm - just with the new record out now they'd be perfect for 2018, if it wasn't so soon after the last time.

great night that at Latitude, still had a ton of my favourite songs missing of the setlist

Should just re-book em anyway they're the best band in the world.

Book The National, Kendrick and LCD Soundsystem and fuck off the likes of Catfish.

Arcade Fire have to play Latitude next year. Otherwise I'm not sure we will get a festival show in the UK from them.

Yep I can't see where else they could play. Would rather have the other three, though.

Just woke up realising due to their diverse setlists I should of bought more tickets for different dates.

Those aspirations may have just been reached. The National are on the Fifa 18 soundtrack...

Expect loads of #ladsladslads at their gigs from now on, all looking confused when England drops.
