Praying for LCD now that they've been announced for All Points East, really hoping AEG haven't made it a UK Exclusive

Hoping for the libertines 🤞🤞

Announcements coming thick and fast - Rick Astley, Sheryl Crow and Underworld. Hopefully LCD next 🤞

The guys at the Brudenell usually co-promote a show at the Piece Hall every summer and get someone great, but next year already looks jam packed so maybe they won't.

If LCD are to play Halifax it would be most likely to be in early July (I’d say 2nd or 3rd of July as that’s just after Glastonbury festival and Rosklide is running until the Saturday on that week) If not then they could play before their All Points East date in mid August.

I made a calendar with all their dates along with major festivals and other concerts at The Piece Hall to try and figure this out.

Very happy to see Grace Jones added to this (tickets Friday). A chance to see an iconic performer as a one-off. Will be very interesting to see who is doing support for this.

And as it's been pointed out elsewhere... clashes with the opening on Leeds festival.

 

Not my cuppa, but a big coup for the Piece Hall (along with a few others). Definitely staking their claim to being a major part of the summer music ecosystem up north.

Piece Hall largely naff this year for my liking but do like the fact they've had a good range of acts.

I knew they're doing Victorious Festival in Portsmouth over R&L weekend so they were already noted as avoiding that jamboree, but quite something to be doing an alternative in Leeds Festival's backyard.
