Wo. Junior Senior played the main stage?

[CaledonianGonzo]

An insult to Junior and the lad that they had to sub The Libertines.

Seems like it's coming this week, judging by posts on IORR. Buggered if I can afford their tickets at this time tho, and it'll be last chance to see them in the UK I'm sure.

I don't get why gender (binary at that) is a required field on their mailing list signup.

The Leeds line up makes me feel old. Most oft the bands I'd want to see I saw at Leeds between 2002-08, the only others of note are Wolf Alice and Kendrick. I remember these days... 

Was at both of those, loved them.

Blur played without Coxon.

I dunno if I'll bother unless there's a Scottish show or I get ridiculously spawny and get a bargain basement ticket.  Can't face missioning down south to stand all day holding position on the off chance that they slip in something like Dead Flowers.

They were in talks with Sunderland about a show and are apparently doing Manchester so I think Scotland is a likelihood with the net cast so wide.

I havent been keeping up to speed on the latest, but bv @ IORR was talking about Scottish date last year.

Honestly though I got in the very front pit last year in Amsterdam and they did Shine A Light and even that didn't top Glastonbury.

Fair enough. Glastonbury is still my best festival gig, cloudless memory of it and everything so yeah it's probably not essential, especially for the price. Just know I will feel the FOMO when they do their swansong round the isles.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Yeah.  No doubt the FOMO will be real.  Smart move might be to wait until closer to the day and hope the touts take a bath on the tickets or that cheap pit tickets start appearing when they release the production holds.

I once waited until they had actually started playing and got two of us in to Wembley for £20. Missed one and a half songs but worth holding my nerve, I had tickets for the next night anyway so was just going to sit outside and listen. A tout had earlier threatened to deck me for offering £20 "while wearing that hat!".

Ha that's brilliant. How much was the going price ten minutes earlier? This is probably what inspired Deal or No Deal.

[dentalplan]

Childish Gambino, Skepta, Big Boi, N*E*R*D, Vince Staples, Anderson .Paak, Action Bronson and The Internet among it at Lovebox.

We hadn't tried for a while, the last time (before the support act had started) was £50 a ticket.

All band names must follow format

[Odessa]

Lol I've just had a Kylie Minogue presale code through. Only gonna try to go if it's cheap for whatever reason, but still can't find prices. Has anyone else managed to find them? Someone can have this code if/when it's over £30.

I can't find prices yet either but i'd be surprised if it was under £50.

[Amy Lawn]

Same, it's just not impossible that it'll be cheap imo. Like, she isn't gonna make significant money in a 600 capacity venue whether she charges £30, £50, £70, whatever. Tbf it's probably best if it's expensive so people like me who know about 5 or 10 songs aren't stopping diehard fans from going haha.

If they're gathering email addresses the now I'd imagine it'll still be a few days away.
