Do wonder if the ongoing allegations against Bryan will gain any hard traction. It doesn't look like they will.

 

Can't say I'm shocked Rodrigo is already sold out now though. It might not be the most thrilling collection of headliners for some this year, but they're going to be raking it in with the ones they have got.

Given he's sold out 2 nights in NY and has added a third, all at a big stadium with Kings of Leon as opener, seems to have been brushed off.

 

Rodrigo probably could announce a second date, even if the slot is taken by these ZB shows and there's the question on what she's up to that Saturday anyway.

[NorthernSoul52]

Yeah, assumed it wouldn't stick if it hadn't already.

 

I assume Rodrigo is going to be doing the G on that Saturday. Seems to be the running consensus elsewhere on this site.

 

Think she'll do fine there. If the other two are indeed The 1975 and Sam Fender, I think Saturday is the primo spot for her.

[sisco]

Well that’s funny timing

Birds speak and sirens fall quiet.

 

Was an interesting chat he had with Springsteen the other week for one of the glossy mags.

We assuming 3 spots are left for this?

Yep, persumably Sabrina on July 5th, then July 11/12 open. If I would guess it would be a Kpop band and then another legend to finish it off

[NorthernSoul52]

Twice? Are Twice around?

Successful guess then.

 

Guess we'll find out in due course.

Jamiroquai announces a tour for the end of next year

 

I’m wondering if this will tee him up for festival shows like this

 

not see any of the other dates if they clash. 

[NorthernSoul52]

Underneath somebody else? Perfectly possible, but I would doubt it. No concrete reason to - just doesn't feel like it.

Feels like announcing London O2 and BST Hyde Park would cannibalise each other's sales.

 

Unless we're talking them as a support act ofc.

[NorthernSoul52]

Yeah, exactly. I was saying in another chat that I cannot gauge their size too, so no idea if they would be able to pull both off.

[charlierc]

We talked a lot about Muse in the Lytham thread but I still think they're a possibility for this - not done it before so might want to tick the career boxes like I think they did booking MK Bowl last year, nothing else obvious screams out to me for a UK show if they're doing festivals and could sell ok with a decent support act.

 

So I look forward to being totally wrong and they wind up somewhere else or not doing a UK show at all.

i didnt list hugh cause I figure people wouldve thought it was def fake. But yeah, I dont know when Sabrina happens though. I would think the easiest is if they tie it in with her Christmas special thats coming in a few weeks. Easy promo.

Would've been 4/5 if Hugh had been included but yes, until it was announced, would've been easy to dismiss as ridiculous and far-fetched. And yet, here we are.

 

Sabrina Carpenter's doing a Christmas special?

She’s doing some recorded tv special but she’s also got an EP of xmas songs out on the 6th.

So there is, plus a full Netflix special as revealed overnight: Sabrina Carpenter Announces 'A Nonsense Christmas' Special at Netflix

 

Presumably filmed in August so Californian weather was the least Christmas-like possible.

Jamiroquai would feel like the smallest by far i reckon / even without O2 date have the slowest sales i reckon?

 

Feel like BST have clearly got other big artists who will do well left

To be fair, it's mostly me bellowing about it. I wouldn't necessarily put good stock into me wishing things into existence, or I'd be living in Australia with some British beer on keg. 😁

[NorthernSoul52]

Sabrina Carpenter feels like a slam dunk and surely shifts the numbers too. It's not the most exciting bunch this year, but they have booked very well.

Yeah he definitely feels like "very special guest" for this sort of event to me, will be interesting to see how his arena dates sell

Shaboozey is playing Pinkpop festival on June 20th. Would make sense for him to sub Zach Bryan.

Not sure why, but I always say this name in the voice of Wallace from Wallace and Gromit.

 

Just do. No idea where it came from.

Wouldn't call it manifesting tbf - much as I continue to be a big Muse fan, I don't particularly care for Hyde Park as a venue. It's more I'm not sure where exactly they go for a UK show this year given I don't see them at Glastonbury (I could be wrong but I think others are ahead) and they're not at Download or IOW.

 

Something more my speed was Muse unexpectedly booking Milton Keynes Bowl, which had me stoked given I live near there and feel that venue is never used as often as it could be. Even if it was the first time anything was there in 7 years.

 

They're certainly around as known.
