Can't wait for Richard Ashcroft to start performing his one song only for Keith to come on and hand him a cease and desist.

Won’t even get on stage

Saw her in Manchester not too long ago but I live literally around the corner from here so would be silly to not see her again for a tenner.

I'm just behind Lime Street so not too far from me either. Some good gigs coming up in the city tbh!

Gotta say I'm mildly tempted by this. I mean, I almost definitely won't end up going 'cause I imagine tickets will be £30+ and their new album is crap, but they're one of the bands my younger self really wanted to tick off but never got the chance to.

The Bord Gais is an odd choice of venue, not that I have any interest anyway.

After some great support acts announced for the Stones in the UK we get The Academic in Dublin, typical Aiken not wanting to spend money.

£40+ across the board, so even more than that. It’s a no from me certainly.

Yeah had a feeling it might be something like that. Fuck that then.

Efestivals flava' of the month are doing some UK festivals and a little show at Village Underground this Spring/Summer, the latter of which still has some tickets going circa £15.

This looks good. Not a big enough fan to personally get much out of such a concentrated setlist but will be pretty special for the big Fanny fans.

Can't believe it's like £45-50 to see her.

Quite tempted by that. Might try and tie it in with a jaunt back to the UK

You serious? Doesn't she only have  like one song?

I'm only familiar with Tilted also but I think her album from a couple of years ago went down pretty well. Here are the prices for Manchester, seems extortionate to me.

Suspect that they'll be return visitors to the G in 2019.  Either on the Pyramid or high-ish up on la Holts.

By the looks of the tour she's doing, it'll be headline West Holts or high-ish up the Pyramid, in a booking that will no doubt confuse future generations scrolling through Wikipedia.

They're definitely step up dates rather than ones that maintain the status quo.  Someone somewhere is betting on her to win.

Can't see her/them filling my local arena in Bournemouth even if it is one of the smaller ones around  with a capacity of about 7,000 unless profile raises massively over the summer. 

Next month's Beck gig here has been downgraded to a smaller 2000 people capacity hall in the same building and i can see the same thing happening here.
