If I'm unsuccessful, Amyl and the Sniffers are playing at the Garage so I'll get my kicks over there instead. 9 minutes ago, Sasperella said: Cool! If I somehow end up with an extra ticket it has your name on it ? Will check out Amyl and the Sniffers too as I've not actually heard if them before Random checks appear to be your friend. I just went to Twickets now to see if anything was available and one popped up for Barrowlands. By the time I'd faffed between coming on here to let you guys know it was there or just buying it myself and sorting someone out it had gone! But they are popping up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe I was faffing about looking to try and get lucky elsewhere when it was posted! Bang goes my productivity (and social life) for the next three weeks!

I'm only looking for 1 at alley palley handy tip is to keep refreshing the website rather than rely on the mobile alerts as there is about a 1 minute delay (of course that means you have to sit there looking at a computer screen for a while but if you are really desperate!)

a6l6e6x Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Sorted myself out a ticket for Alley Palley. Absolutely can't wait as I've never seen them but watched their glasto set on TV with severe jealousy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balti-pie Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 Truth stage was even better tbf ? (source: me, I was working during the Park set and couldn’t see it but I finished in tune for a Gojira and IDLES and that was the best back-to-back over the whole weekend ??)

I would have loved that. Got in the wrong spot at the Park and sound was pap. I gave it a free pass 5/10, i.e. it was clearly good but couldn't do owt for me where I was. Till next time...

Aye it was incredible. Swaggered onto the stage like they’d just headlined Pyramid. You could tell how much the Park set had meant to them. 1 hour ago, balti-pie said: Truth stage was even better tbf ?

We ended up seeing Gojira too. Got in SEC early to make sure we beat the spot headliner rush, but got in way too early. They nearly ended my other half. I have to admit, it was a bit much for me too. Couple of tracks was fine, but they all just merge into one after that. Edited November 23, 2019 by Rubber Soldier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuzzyDunlop Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 I have never got lucky on Twickets. For a hard to get concert, Im yet to meet anyone who has. Plenty getting tickets for gigs at the arena for less than face value. Never for sold out gigs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartbert two hats Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 Do we think they'll be back this year? They seem like they might be on the kind of upward trajectory to just come straight back, even without another album - headline JPT maybe?

They're massively in demand and still touring Joy... so it wouldn't be a stretch to see them going again. They've definitely got the appeal at the moment to do it again. But I don't know whether they're the kind of band to keep doing live shows without new material? 50/50 for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyDunlop Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 I think they are 50/50 to play again in 2020. They clearly got a great reaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managed to get Frank Carter a couple of years ago. Not a sniff with Lizzo the other week. Plenty of alerts but never quick enough. Interesting to hear that the alerts are slightly delayed to the main website. Whilst I'm here, looking for one for the Academy next week for Idles.

Don't know how much credence this has but on the Bearded Theory forum last month when Idles was mentioned as a possible the festival admin posted this response. « Reply #22 on: October 27, 2019, 01:47:09 PM » Quote from: maggieloveshopey on October 27, 2019, 01:33:41 PM Made up with the Flaming Lips, great booking!

I was lucky enough to see them when they first reformed, when it was the whole lot (minus Jerry Dammers) and it was great, but I don't know if it'd feel the same with half the band gone. Underworld would be a brilliant headliner if they were available. Pixies as well. Idles must also be at headline status by now, I reckon. pixies not about and idles on an exclusive elsewhere at a major festy.

Exclusive sounds weird though? Going from basically being at every festival this year to none next?? That sounds weird to me....unless it's BIG Edited November 26, 2019 by Sasperella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're in South America in March too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
