Was just on my way to post this.

 

8,000 capacity at Scarborough to shift. Will be fascinated to see if they manage it - their York Museum Gardens gigs weren't actually that large.

Shed Seven have had two No.1 albums this year. I know record sales blah blah etc etc, but thats pretty impressive considering everything. 

 

(and by everything i mean they're a band who have had at best half an idea, and that idea was last vaguely relevant in 1997! 😄 im only saying this cos a good pal of mate is an enthusiastic and effusive Shedder, and it's perturbed me for over quarter of a century now)

I must admit, I've never quite got Shed Seven. I understand why people get plenty of bands, because sometimes, the hooks are just there. Chasing Rainbows is however by some distance their best song - and there's not that many others that have lived on beyond that.

 

However, full power to them. They'll sell nothing this week, but if they've managed to shift 25,000 copies of Liquid Gold, there's enough to suggest that they can do that in sales between these three shows. (A little less, if anything.)

I’m a fan and think they have some great singles that appeal to a certain generation- Going for Gold is up there with Chasing Rainbows and On Standby, Getting Better, Cry for Help, Disco Down are all big singalong tunes.

They did the Principality in 2022, was on the BBC and looked like the full setup. The Welsh gig won't be an issue for sure

 

No real North West date though which is annoying, Huddersfield isnt the easiest to get home from 

Yeah that show I assumed would sell well. It's the others that are more of a surprise.

Now Disco Down is a great singalong, will concur.

 

Must say, saw them in York earlier this year, with a few pints in me, and had a jolly time despite the weather, so it's maybe the mood.

No Sheffield date?

Could be a bigger one in the offing.

Got Springsteen tickets for San Sebastian. No online queue and €88 for rear standing. Thank you very much.

To be fair I would rather do that and have a few days on holiday there than pay the prices here.

I have a steady fear the Co-op app is going to screw me over on today's Bruce Springsteen presale.
