The Tesky Brothers 

That'd be a good booking for the festival, would really like to see them.

Remember them being announced to support Bruce Springsteen in Italy, I think. Year before last? With Tash Sultana and Sam Fender, if I recall right.

Played the Other Stage last year

Teskey Brothers are about. They'd be a good fit for West Holts.

Not who I expected for the Gunnersbury show. Also at The Piece Hall.

I keep looking at gig prices and think stadium/outdoor gigs cannot maintain their same levels for much longer. Then I see acts like The Stereophonics and Khruangbin announce shows which seem far bigger than you’d expect for their size.

See, I'm not surprised by those Stereophonics ones. They would regularly sell-out full-dozen date UK arena tours every two years before the pandemic, and sold out the one arena run they've had since. Get a quality support behind them, and they'll be fine.

 

But prices are going to be steep. No idea how much Khruangbin will charge either, but that surprises me.

Standing is £80 region for one of the Stereophonics ones, seats in the £70-90 from a brief thing I saw earlier. 

 

I agree too, I think the dates fit their size, 2022 was arenas plus Cardiff stadium, some of these others are about right size wise like Huddersfield stadium.

That's not quite as horrendous as I thought it might be.

 

A flat £80 to watch them do Finsbury, presumably with the full two-hour show and some decent support acts - though it's not likely to be on the quality of them having Tom Jones and late substitutes Feeder - will make that worth it, in the current market, especially among middle-class Radio 2 pockets.

It was about £60 at Manchester Arena in 2022 so seems about right for a stadium / outdoor show. Im holding out just in case they end up doing Neighbourhood Weekender, but have a cancellable hotel booked for Huddersfield if that doesn't happen

That's a shout. Is NW still a thing?

Big venues suggest they wouldn't want any slot they'd get offered at the G.

Well, they’re one slot they might well take but it would not go down well on here…
