Gnomicide Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 There's never been an announcement on Valentine's day before, so if one comes tomorrow it will be a first. In other news, it's getting closer to that time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen them multiple times on the farm (at least 5, possibly more) always thought their 2007 performance was the best one I've seen.

Seen them 3 times , twice at the farm. Thought they were better in 2019 but I was right at the front and had a lot of apple juice and vodka. Can’t wait to see them next month at the Albert Hall.

I still feel sad that their break was announced without any fanfare or farewell shows - just “we’re done” and that was it. Their last UK tour for Accelerate sold so poorly that they had to downgrade to the arena in Cardiff and the top tier was closed at Twickenham at what was their last ever UK show. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2008/aug/11/rem.downsize.gig I remember money was very tight that summer and I couldn’t afford to go but if I’d known that these were their last ever shows, I’d have sold something to make sure I could have been there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I saw them was Rock Werchter in 2008. They were (as usual) bloody marvellous, but I didn't know at the time that it would be the last time I'd get to see them live.

That's where Stormzy was announced (along with the branch closest to where he grew up), sounds like a plan. Someone get down there, check inside everything!
