  1. In France they sold out arenas multiple times.

    In Italy as well.

     

     

    In Germany none of the drones shows were sold out. Even if all people who've attended the drones shows in Germany come to cologne, the stadium won't be sold out.

     

     

    And a standing ticket for a drones show was 30€ cheaper...

     

    Not entirely true, the Lanxess Arena gig was sold out (2 weeks before the gig, but still), the combined attendance of the 4 German 2016 gigs was ~60,000, and Cologne Stadium has a capacity of ~40,000 for concerts (depending on stage layout and opened blocks)

     

    Not like any of this means the show will sell out, I wouldn't even expect standing to sell out with those prices :unsure:

  2. I wasn't sure what the second option was (+Collector) but looking at london listings it seems it was a collector ticket. IE the fucking ticket we all deserve for such high priced gigs..... This is getting insane. Over £5 for a souvenir ticket. Seriously.

     

     

    Just don't make the same mistake as me and book a collector's ticket outside GB as those are only delivered to the UK and Northern Irland and no way to change your selection after selecting the ticket type...

     

    £5 extra for a collector's ticket is pretty standard on ticket master. Those aren't just a paper ticket with the tour design, but a solid plastic card (although you might argue which of those is prettier)

  3. Tickets are 90€ in most places (Italy, France, Budapest all in the same price range) for standing, just a few are cheaper (Netherlands, Riga, Moscow from what I checked).

     

     

    Actually might end up with the premium bundle, being "only" 110€ more expensive...

     

     

    But yeah, won't nearly sell out with those prices.

  4. But why not announcing all cities at the same time?

     

    I can see them playing arena (USA) and stadium (EU) shows at the cities mentioned in the list (there you'll have a presale, if you buy the album).

     

    But no show in Belgium? No show in Austria? No show in Denmark? Finland? Poland?

    So I guess, they will add some festivals, but there will be no Presale opportunity.

    - Belgium: Rock Werchter

    - Austria: Novarock

    - Denmark: Roskilde

    - Germany: Hurricane/Southside

    - Spain: Bilbao BBK / Bencassim

    - Finland: Provinssirock

    - Poland: Open'er

     

    Original Drones Tour announcement only had UK, Portugal, Spain, Italy, and Czech Republic and the same "stay tuned for more cities" statement.

    The announcement was during the 2015 festival tour but IIRC at the time of the announcement, Germany was the only (European) country with a pending drones festival show - So there didn't seem to be an apparent pattern to which countries were included and which weren't.

  5. My guess would be that some of those songs not included will be part of the live voting (CE, Butterflies), some are already selected by the band (KoC), so they final set would be something like 5 ticket voters, 5 live votes, 5 selected by the band (or any other ratio)

  7. I know you can't admit it but at least I can, yes you all follow Mr Brexit everywhere, go on holiday with him, always stand by his side, never say anything wrong, by the tour shirt, single the vinyl, the LP with DVD behind the scenes, clock up I was at the barrier, saw them 12 times this month etc but its just Groundhog Day.

     

    buy*

  8. No SBE, assuming same Options as last time

    Chances are at least Top 5 will stay the same if they do it again, though. Not that anyone would complain.

  9. as best as i can tell (my eyes fail me from time to time), this is the list of songs i THINK i see on the burry IG photo.

     

    SIMPLY DO NOT OPEN THE SPOILER if you do not want any notion of what might or might not be played:

     

     

     

    Muscle Museum (half step down)

    Easily

    Butterfiles

    Glorious

    a two-worded song, with short words: best guess is Dead Star (could also be New Born)

    Showbiz (half step down)

    Futurism (half step down)

    Fury (half step down)

    Interlude + Hysteria

    Hyper Music (could also be New Born)

    (break)

    --

    Sing for Absolution

    ...and then it gets blurry.

     

    looks like another somewhat long-ish title (or something w/ half step down) after SFA, then a break...

     

    and then two, one-worded titles below that (could be shortened, like Butterflies).

     

    -----------------

     

    they also rehearsed yesterday, too. could have been some songs played yesterday that weren't played today. they could also have played other songs in addition to those on the list we saw today.

     

    comments:

     

    --"Museum" still looks almost too blurry to make out;

    --if this is just a rehearsal of various songs (and not the setlist), why include Hysteria?

    --the list is just 14 songs, max, which seems way short for a full gig...

    --Assassin soundchecked a couple weeks ago for a reason, right?

    --where is Eternally Missed? it seemed to be all over most ppl's submissions...

    --if that is a setlist, then the last word on there might be Knights, which could make sense...but the word on the sheet appears longer than that (on the other hand, it could just be an optical illusion due to the angle with which the photo was taken)

     

     

     

     

    DO NOT OPEN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW.

     

    ...and don't shoot me (i'm only the piano player) if i either just got up hopes (or, as the case may be, killed them) by providing a bunk list that ends up being way off-base.

     

     

    We know at least 2 songs never played before are getting played, as none of the blurry songs really fits (Fawy and Moyh each 4 words), they are missing from that list too. Eternally missed being a pretty safe bet too, appears at least two songs that are planned are not on the list

     

  10. Looks like I have a spare ticket in STALLS for Saturday if anyone is still looking.

     

    We're not queueing so I am happy for someone to meet just before doors - we will be in a pub by the venue before hand if you want to say hi to ease your anxieties then meet later ;)

     

    PM if interested!

     

    So, how many PMs did this post get you? :p
