Will probably be a DJ set from someone, I'd imagine. Might even be Rick, doing one of his "Mysterons" sets, like the recent tours 

Wasn't there an instance where somebody did an unannounced support slot for themselves at a large-ish show a few years ago?

I don't get why they wouldn't just announce that now, though? I guess to make sure people turn up!

Busy on both the Friday and Saturday so not impossible, but probably unlikely. 

Ah gutting. Wished they'd played more shows here this tour than a single London date.

There's a few tickets left to shift, and we're only three weeks away now, so hopefully we'll hear this week. Come to think of it though, of all the times I've seen Underworld over the years, most of the time I don't actually remember there being a support act!

Think it might have been Noel Gallagher I was on about, having sat on it.

I saw NG support himself at the RAH a few years ago.

 

more of an acoustic part of a split set , but , in principle…

This is very true.

Louise Tickets sure is a funny stage name.

Wonder if they're supporting Coldplay here? They're doing some gigs with them in Brazil and those dates above start 2 days after Coldplay's UK tour finishes

[pedrogooch]

Weyes Blood are back over playing a date at De La Warr Pavilion on June 24th, so can assume they'll be at Glastonbury this year.

Someone give Smooth Jimmy a nudge... 

Edit: hmmm, maybe not. Only free on Saturday

Oh sweet! Didn't know they were touring UK at all. Fingers crossed.

Yes! Early evening Park set would be amazing

He's not shy of a back to back run is he? As you say, only free on the Saturday, if he added that it would be 11 days on the bounce.

Plausible. Coldplay are yet to announce supports for their upcoming dates.

Where it could be complicated tbf is if Chvrches are roped in to being support for their entire European run given Coldplay have dates in Naples and Milan over Glastonbury weekend.

Its certainly wishful thinking for me that they'd support Coldplay at Manchester, but Chvrches at Glastonbury would be a must see for me even if I had seen them a few weeks before.

My Underworld ticket came in the post today. An actual physical ticket like the good old days!

I've got 4 pairs now stuck on the fridge door with magnets (Elvana, Gaz Coombes, The Beths and Embrace), makes me very happy and a teensy bit nostalgic.

Edit: King of Leon dates too

I know this is likely thanks in part to Wrexham AFC having Hollywood actor owners, but still the sentence "Kings of Leon playing Wrexham" is one I can stare at and go "... what?"

Same. Slightly worried I'll forget it! It's been a while since I've anything other than an eTicket. It's a long drive back to Somerset from London. Might have to set a reminder. 

Seriously though, I wouldn't mind paying a little extra to have a physical ticket every time.

Showing my age but I used to collect the stubs from gig tickets and had a small biscuit tin full of them. No idea what happened to it, probably a victim of a house move at some point. ☹️

I have two shoeboxes full of em, going back 30+ years. I even digitally scanned a load and put them on the top of an Ikea coffee table around 6/7 years back. I'm quite the nostalgist
