That being said, I think he would rather take aim at his own stadium show. Carries a little more heft and weight. Certainly he did Finsbury Park, which at 40k+ is about a stadium sized show in London. Plus obviously playing stadium shows in Newcastle, even if that's home turf stuff given he's a Geordie boy and that was a big celebration party.

My Own Soul's Warning remains a belter though so I was glad we got that, even if I was a little disappointed not to get The Man as that's always good fun live. But I do ponder if a lot of the energy was expended the night before when they played the final minutes of England's win in the Euro's semi on a big screen during the show and then played the originally planned closer Mr Brightside as a big celebration song. Perhaps. Far from implausible. But really, you've got Mr. Brightside, All These Things That I've Done, Somebody Told Me, Read My Mind, When You Were Young, Human, Runaways, The Man and Caution that should be locks every night. (The latter two definitely aren't either.) After that, they should just go wild. Dip into that back catalogue. Dust off Losing Touch, give a spin to Uncle Jonny, drop Believe Me Natalie, roll out Battle Born, swing from the rafters on Sleepwalker. You can still have another five or six "core" songs that simply do night on, night off - your Spaceman, your Jenny Was a Friend of Mine, your For Reasons Unknown - and still go properly hog wild.

I'd be surprised if there isn't a second date for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I follow The O2 on Instagram and there was a Sam Fender teaser for that venue. So it looks like that's what he shall be up to. Consensus is that Friday is a big day for him to announce stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second date? I'd expect at least 3 unless he has other stuff booked e.g. R&L or Glasto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange. You'd assume that if bookers knew he was in the market, they'd be after him anyway. Throw in his position and place in the landscape, and it would only be headline offers from the biggest festivals they'd even entertain, I'd have assumed.

NorthernSoul52 Posted yesterday at 08:45 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 08:45 AM The risk is whether he gets there. His health issues seem to crop up notably whenever he steps foot outside of Great Britain. I assume he doesn't travel well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's Rhianna's option if Stevie says no too. I'll be shocked if he's in place of Fred who I think will do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does absolutely make him possible though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
