I suppose the support was the reason for their first Hydro show doing so well? They're clearly somebody in Scotland. Definitely somebody in Scotland. Reckon it would surprise a lot of people how many tickets theyโd shift for an outdoor gig up here, regardless of the undercard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve050900 Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 I just think 35000 is a lot of tickets for the courteeners to shiftย in scotland. When you look at a lot of the previous bands that headline GSS have been Scottish or big headline acts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve050900 Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 But yes I do agree they are definitely someone in scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once with about 300 other people at 2nd stage at T in the Park. The other at Leeds. They filled the Hydro because of Gerry Cinnamon, they couldn't on their own and they certainly couldn't headline GSS or TRNSMT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 Gerry Cinnamon didn't support them on their first big Hydro show here. Didn't seem to hurt them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So was it a sold out Hydro or a stripped back Hydro like smaller bands do with standing and a few boxes and seats? I think it can be as low as 4000 capacity. Still, fair play toย them. The crowd was embarrassing in 2012 at T. It was as bad for Enter Shikari too. Might have been a reflection of the direction change that year. I never went again.ย Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threestripes Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Biffy??? ย If were going to have bands coming back after a couple of year letโs make it kasabian.

kingcrawler Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Itโs just guesswork but Geoff Ellis has talked about being a big fan of Florence before and sheโs a big ticket seller so it seems like an obvious choice. It would look good for them to have a female headliner too given how male dominated the last two years have been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be completely honest I think Biffy are the best bet for this - new album coming out soon-ish and also started announcing a couple festivals already. In Glasgow theyโre a guaranteed ticketย seller and with somebody big and current behind them (i.e. George Ezra), I think itโs a very realistic day.ย ย Wouldnโt be too surprised to see them at R+L either.ย Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Courteeners wonโt return after a year, and I donโt think bands like Twenty One Pilots are what DF want for the festival, especially since itโs back to a 3 day weekend.
