Oh.

We could get into debates about music snobbery and people wanting to keep bands for themselves, but I'd always kind of assumed the band would always play smaller venues just 'cos they're NICER. At least not arenas!

Maybe its just a one off. Y'know, like how Wembley was...! Wink

That all said...I'm still going and I'm all giddy. Thank GOD...thank Elbow-fan GOD that it's not in June as I will be out of the country for a big chunk of it.

Woo Hoo!!! Hey, those of you who missed out on Halle can still get to see them! My friend saw them at Wembley and siad their music really suited the larger venue. And, hey, it's Elbow. Of course it will be fantastic!
Party!

I know what you mean. im just worried that because its a Friday night, then its going to be like the BLackpool gig, full of knobs, pissed up chanting Manchester la la la and just spoiling it for everyone else.

But im going to go coz I love Elbow sooo much.

Yeah, I'd go if it wasn't term time and a friday and many, many miles away! Plus I tend to be a beacon to all the annoying people at arena gigs. They all just want to flock around me Rolling Eyes

I didn't see anything about a pre-sale, which is odd...

Hmmm...my move to Canada is looking more and more inconvenient!

Hahaha! Reminds me of seeing Snow Patrol at some godawful arena - they announced they were playing a song from their first album that was met with complete silence except for me and my friends screaming like mad women!

PS Bettyblue, love your profile photo! Where's it from?

Really hope there will be loads of old skool fans whio get the best tickets, ie. standing, but it's the price of fame, people who've got into them from TSSK will be out in droves, which is fair game also.

Just hope though they respect the old tunes.......remember in Blackpool bellowing out every word to Puncture Repair to looks of utter bewilderment from all around me.

I tend to be at the very front where all the nutters like me congregate.
