It's definitely bad if you like all the music, for me I'd love Jimmy Eat World -> Fall Out Boy -> MCR but not that bothered about the rest

[NorthernSoul52]

Fightstar would be on there if it was a Blighty thing.

 

Anywho.

Warped tour did but they didn't book that many bigger bands clashing etc. They did not and are only charging $149 with fees for the 30th anniversary reunion which is a 2 day event so the difference all round is massive and this event had Blink 182 in their heyday who WWWY have booked recently with a $350 tag on the day.

 

Giving tickets are still easily accessible for WWWY this weekend, I'm willing to bet that they won't do as great next year as I reckon Long Beach having a date for the 30th Anniversary which is likely to be all the return is will not only get the crowds but get the bands flocking too, many of which would have been exactly who WWWY book these days.

Thats life. Try doing that for 17 years and not knowing the schedule til you walked into the festival. That was Warped Tour. And only £25 for most of the time. Worth the hassle/stress.

all 3 cities will do well. Theyre not big spaces so 20,000 or so each place will indeed do well. The lineup is slowly going to be rolled out. They say 70-100 per city. Incredible value for $150 on 2 days. The final 2019 edition was 2 day format in 3 cities and lineups were like this. Well worth it. Most are Mid level bands but stacked to the gills.

Clashing MCR with PGMG is criminal.

Anti-Flag on there 😬

 

I take it they've got a new front man.

Yeah it's stacked, just by how it panned out too I barely needed to leave the main stage. They had dropped from being able to get the right biggest in the business then and I don't believe they will get the absolute top tier next year. But I also think that WWWY have run through most options to where they've had the absolute top tier as well and probably turned to album shows to help with that. No way would I choose Vegas for that cost over warped at that cost and a little Californian holiday to boot, not that either are happening.

That's been announced a while. I actually like Ella, Tom and Walker and Tom Grennan.

Wunderhorse supporting. Count me in.

And Europe

[CaledonianGonzo]

Gives nothing away in regards to the G.

[NorthernSoul52]

I mean, I'll believe it when I see it for Europe.

 

But I'd say that makes him more likely for Glastonbury next year. UK shows in the 2024 winter? Absolutely.

£65 now for a Forest Live gig. If it hadn't been for the Coral support I think I'd have passed.

This has got big summer shows written all over it. Manchester, London, Birmingham, Glasgow will get 1 extra. Newcastle might get 2. 
 

but there will be loads more demand so expect some big outdoor shows.

I was just coming to say there will be some extras. Definitely London and Newcastle.

 

Not sure regarding the others. Depends what else is on.

Warped Tour was surely a lot cheaper than this though. This feels like an event where it's £25 for dinner and a drink.

There's 3 empty nights in Glasgow after the announced date currently. I wouldn't be surprised with at least one extra night there. 
I wasn't sure about seeing Sam again before another album after seeing him in Belfast last Summer but Wunderhorse have tipped it. Definitely trying for standing at the Hyrdo. 
Will be much better than the inevitable TRNSMT headline slot.

Presumably any announcements for those will be in the new year. Gotta get the tickets sold for this run first, and there are a load of spaces for extra dates along the way.
