SWG3 Galvanize Festival

[Mezhyp1]

Yeah there won't be anyone playing this that's supporting Gerry or playing any of the other DF events 

The nights won't be like a festival billing it's just like a series of individual gigs like those previously at Galvanisers that they'd bunged together and expanded to make it a bit more of an event as far as I'm aware

Do you know how many nights? And is the announcement coming today do you know?

Don't know when the announcement is, the last I talked to anyone about it I was told it could be up to 10 nights, I'd maybe guess it wont quite be as many as that

 

I shall endeavour to find out more

[Jonesy1]

Noel G playing quite a few outdoor gigs in the summer but nothing in Scotland so far, could imagine him being at this.

[Mezhyp1]

My endeavours suggest there's not long to wait here at all  🖐️

The competition to guess the artists that'll be playing this closes at Midday on Friday so I had assumed that's when the announcement will be.

Nah it's already closed. Winners are announced on Friday, presumably when tix go on sale. Which should mean today or tomorrow for an announcement...

[AldoTVAOF]

Ah, so it is!  Was sure I read Friday @ 12 in the T&C's but even better, hopefully hear something today then!

[fraybentos1]

Do they not usually announce things on a tuesday too? Would guess 5pm tonight but could be way off.

or maybe you could be spot on

They just emailed this. Not too much there I’d be desperate to see but I think I guessed a few of those so will happily go if I end up winning tickets.

Can see that selling well

[fraybentos1]

Disappointed with that personally. Was expecting Bombay Bicycle Club for sure.

[Mezhyp1]

Bit dull that The Libertines and Supergrass have played the Barrowlands recently but I'll probably head along to the Pixies 

[Jonesy1]

Any ticket prices kicking about?

Nice and diverse as usual from DF...

[Pottsy2913]

The All Time Low date looks decent, but none of the other ones real appeal to me. The idea of seeing a big band at a pretty small venue has always appealed to me, so I am tempted by it. 

[Johndenis]

Pretty grisly stuff in my opinion.  Saw Supergrass at the Barras last week, and it was fun, but I feel like there would be no need to see them again for another decade.  Saw The Pixies at the bandstand a few years back but again there would be no rush to see them again - definitely feels like they take absolutely any gig going.

Tom Walker - £38.50

The Libertines - £44.80

Two Door Cinema Club - £41.70

Supergrass - £47.80

Example - £29.15

Pixies - £53.45 (yikes)

All Time Low - £41.70

Might be extra booking fees, but those were the base ones for a ticket. Pretty pricey (apart from Example).

[kingcrawler]

Anyone else get an email about the competition? Turns out I’ve won two tickets for Pixies! 

I’m especially happy about that given the price.

I've not heard anything as I thought that I might've as I guessed Suppergrass & TDCC. Glad to hear people have won tickets though

Bit dearer than I expected. Libertines about £4 dearer than the Barras and Two Door about £8 dearer than their academy date.

have a great time man

This won’t be happening for sure but still haven’t heard anything about postponements or cancellations. Anyone know what’s happening here?

Obviously not going ahead at SWG3 as they have turned the Galvanisers area into a beer garden. I have heard rumours at DF trying open air socially distanced gigs this summer but doubt they will be viable with this lineup.
