  1. That's not entirely true, most big festivals in Germany never have to sell day tickets. Only this year Rock am Ring and it's twin festival Rock im Park didn't sell out (for the first time in years), so some weeks before the festivals there were day tickets. I'm sure it will be the same for Der Ring next year, but not at all sure for Munich and Vienna.

    Thanks for the info. I was really thinking of UK festivals. I don't remember what tickets I got for the Frequency and Rock Im Park in 2010. I would not mind to get a full ticket just for myself, but 3 full tickets for Munich just to say muse, it is simply too much for me. So I will have to wait in hope.

  2. What's with Muse sharing future lineups with should-be-forgotten bands.

     

    It makes sense to me. New album is supposed to be heavy. By playing at these festivals they will get exposure to a new market. The 50+ year old traditional heavy metal lovers with time and money to spend in a "new" band that will make them feel "younger". (I know that feeling. :p )

  3. The Oxegen line up hasn't been announced yet. I still think an Irish date will happen.

     

    In the unlikely event that it happens, it will be the Aviva. But I don't really see the business point on an Irish gig when most UK dates are not sold out and the O2 date last winter was not sold out either.

  4. Why?

    Mmmm, actually, in 2010 they had a 6 days break between Manchester and Wembley, but this one is a fully stadium tour "a la" U2, so they need to fill the gaps to be profitable. Ok, maybe not insane, but "suspicious". Anyway, it may be all "wishful thinking" as I live in Dublin. :LOL:

  5. My point was that the dates would have been announced with the UK dates because "Ireland Coming Soon..." was not listed.

    It is the same story again: I bet that the Irish date will be at the Aviva Stadium Wednesday 29th of May 2013. It may not be announced until January, but isn't insane to have a week rest between London 2 and Manchester? Now if there is a London 3 on Tuesday, I will be proved wrong, but there will be at least one more concert in the British Isles (That includes Ireland) that week.

  6. Considering they're only doing 5 gigs at the moment in the UK this year, I'd expect them to do a few next year. Hell, it's practically guaranteed that they'll do a stadium tour next year.

    I still can't believe they will stop twice for 9 days in the middle of an European tour. It does not make any sense! I expect a few more UK dates being announced when the album is released (+ of course the Irish ones) :D
