Not sure i'd compare them

 

Cure are well up for smaller gigs, weird venues etc. Also play non festival shows regular - strokes hardly ever do (roundhouse in 2020 the only remotely recent one here)

 

Strokes visit the UK for a festival headline slot payday (or two) every few years while they aren't scrapping with eachother.

 

Your right on the first bit though - no way are they main headliner now.

Yeah like The Strokes did Lytham didn't they? It's not a massive gig in capacity or anything but they went where money was.

I know they did All Points East twice. Their 2019 set was decent, if hindered by the sound system being shite.

Fair one. Biffy did draw a healthy looking crowd in 2021 before Liam Gallagher tbf.

Was it? thought it was quite quiet - lots waiting from gerry into LG

I dont mind Charli but the thought of watching a headliner auto tune their way through a set doesnt appeal tbh.

Would sound better than Liam Gallagher!!

Starting? Hope they're not sodding around with Golden Circle.

I think that's just regular and VIP. Haven't seen an indication they'll be introducing one of those cash grabs.

 

In saying that, I have yet to see a price. They don't have an active Reddit with someone whose managed to see it, plus Ticketmaster and SeeTickets are yet to lift the curtain on it. At least until a pre-sale tomorrow.

Maybe i'll eat my words but these Hozier predictions are getting way out of hand, who the f**k is asking for him. Kind of act that should be playing British Summertime for the picnic blanket gang not R&L!

Hard agree on Hozier. He was never booked high up back in the day and he won’t be now. 

I'd tend to agree but it's a done deal from what I've heard... 

 

Id imagine 'second' headliner but yeah...

So according to a reliable leaker Foo Fighters are planning a South American tour in the second half of 2025, I wouldn't rule them out completely now.

Aye I saw that rumour. So perhaps the idea of a 30 year tour for their debut album is back on after all.

Looks realistic, that. Although I do think they’ll put someone a bit more rocky third down on an LP day if there is one.

tbf I can see Hozier going down decently well with the usual R&L crowd, saw him on tour last year and most people were probably 16-25 ish.

 

Also seems to have quite a few loyal fans, think if he's not doing too much in the UK it would shift some day tickets too.

As in actually booked?

 

Not that i'll be going but f**k me Hozier is shite. Yungblud level booking

Heard it second hand so will have no way of knowing how accurate the info is until line-up release - but I have no reason to doubt.
