  1. Entry last night at Glasgow night 1 was sh!te. Been there since 10am and other doors got let in before ours. The doorman was an absolute jobsworth and was so slow opening the doors and scanning the tickets. He didn't seem to care. Thankfully still made barrier ok. Anyway, was quite surprised to see that the 'front' and 'back' (ie without the seats behind) was segregated. So if you're going to Glasgow night 2 tonight it appears as though Door A (West) is at the 'back', Doors B & C (South) are at the 'front' with the seats behind. I think Door D (East) is the 'front' as well but not 100% sure. I assume it's segregated for crowd safety - I heard it was the Production team who stipulated this. So if you and your mates are a mixture of entrances you might not be able to get together once inside.
  2. I'm 50 next weekend and still doing barrier, queuing for 8+ hours, etc. Got to show the youngsters how it's done. With regards to age the opposite can be true. Not many younger ones around me this last week know CE let alone the words.
  3. Hmmm. Just had a quick search for some of the locations and was unsure if these were possible gig venues, but some plainly aren't so still a bit unsure. The 3 UK ones so far appear to be:- Teignmouth (around The Den) London (looks like Piccadilly Circus) Rotherham (the football stadium) Also, Paris - (around the Zenith) Barcelona - (appears to be a small park just up the road from Camp Nou) New York (Bowery Ballroom) LA (Amoeba Music)
  4. We (my wife and I) did 3 arena dates and after Manchester will have done 3 stadium dates this tour. The only thing stopping us doing more is work commitments (my wife works in a school) so can really only do local/weekend/holiday dates. I admit as being one of the 'older' fans we will have more income to hand for gigs but the obsession kicked in years ago and we'd do more gigs if we could. The pre-9am queuing has become the norm now!
  5. The Etihad appears to be the stadium of choice in the north now. Man City's last home game is Sunday 19 May. Based on the UK being first in the list of countries for the stadium dates, my money is on school half term/Bank Holiday week (the Wolstenbus influence?).
  6. I just wish they hurry up and announce them, I've got a 25th wedding anniversary holiday to sort out for next year and we don't want a clash of dates! Didn't they announce the Manchester/London summer dates on the Resistance tour at the end of the Novermber?
  7. A quick check shows most of the Arenas not used (so far) have little or nothing on during that gap in the dates between Manchester (1 Nov) and Munich (12 Nov) - assuming at least 2 days free prior to the Munich gig, so say 2nd to 9th November:- free dates Newcastle - 3rd to 8th Nottingham - 2nd to 3rd and 5th to 9th Sheffield - 2nd to 9th Liverpool - 2nd to 9th Cardiff - 2nd - 8th We can but hope that they play somewhere else......
