I'm starting to lose interest in this. It's pretty clear we're not going to get a tour until next year and the only secret shows will probably only be in London.

so what?

you're pretty lucky that they'll play secret shows in your country, they'll never play any here. on tour, when they come to Sweden, they ALWAYS only come to one city. Either Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö.. and I live pretty far from all those places and I'd go see them anyway.

But because bands often play in a few different cities in the UK, many people's parents aren't quite accustomed to allowing their children to travel across the country on the rare occasion when this isn't the case. That's why London is so inconvenient.

The only reason I'm losing interest is because we seem to be going around and around in circles. We've had so many hints and rumours and none have turned out to be true, so it's getting really boring.

Quick question: who'd be queuing early for any possible show? how early is "early" for you? :P considering it's not an arena/stadium/etc.

just wondering :)

Providing I could afford the earliest train to London I'd be prepared to get there between 9 and 10am. More likely is a cheaper train to get there for 11am-12pm.

depends when they announce it. if there were to be a secret show in London then my guess is they would announce it on the day or a couple of days before, and it'd be a week day

if say it was announced on a Tues that they were playing the following night then i'd not be able to get time off work meaning i couldn't queue early at all. but if it were a weekend then i'd be willing to get there as early as Harriet!

given they have announced the show in Japan last night for next Thursday, i'm hoping they will do the same for the UK next weekend. would that be a good guess Martyn?

It's just a matter of days, be patient ;). Seeing there will probably be a secret show in Paris, there will certainly be other secrets show elsewhere.

One or two days after ReS, I'll be back at work in Ireland. Not feeling this plan.

It would be awesome if the played a secret show after every concert in Europe! Fingers crossed for Bologna :pinch:

The UK next weekend?! They're playing Japan this coming Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. If the UK are going to get a secret show it's probably going to be after the Italian concert. One before Paris is cutting it fine but I guess it might be possible.

I completely agree with you. We should wait for an official announcement instead of guessing with no substantial evidence.

I'd probably try and get down the night before and stop in my mates flat and then queue early as possible in the morning.

Getting so scared now. The likelyhood of it occurring whilst im not on holiday or leeds fest is ridiculously slim. I'm on holiday now and thankfully I've got signal for internet in this crappy caravan, but theres no chance I'd manage to buy tickets from my phone.

When it comes to it, if I'm away on holiday when the tickets go on sale but are able to go the the show and anyone ended up with a spare I'd happily pay for both tickets and provide alcohol and somewhere to sleep if that person were willing to let me have the spare.. haha. Although I need to calm down thinking about all this considering the lack of confirmation of any description..

OH and Martyn, you're going to reading aren't you? Are you concerned that the show may be whilst the festivals are on, or dya reckon we're safe?

Probably gonna play in London & Manchester :D only problem with that for me is that I'm gonna be in Naples from my geography fieldwork so I'm probably gonna miss their UK tour :sorry:

Posted

Manchester. Oh please play manchester

Ok guys, there's a week gap between the last show in Japan and the Paris gig, that looks like a likely time slot if this is happening, seeing as they have to make their way back to Europe anyway. If that rumour about a secret show in Paris is true, then the next likely time slot is after the Italy gig. There's nothing else scheduled (yet) until they play that festival in Las Vegas. I'm hopeful!

I think if the UK are going to get a secret show, it'll be after the Italy show since there's more time.

I keep telling them that London peeps smelly too much and they should come back to Manchester! fat lot of notice they take of me though! :sorry:

Posted

They'll be at MTV VMA on the 6th, sooo they could play a secret show in Italy AND in England...I hope so =/

given they have announced the show in Japan last night for next Thursday, i'm hoping they will do the same for the UK next weekend.

Nope, tickets went on the sale on August 6th and sold out in a minute, and the concert was announced (well, not properly announced) a few days before

Manchester would be a great place for a secret show, wouldn't it? I think it's much more convenient than London. Well for people who travel there anyway.

Manchester would be awesome, a lot easier to get to for most people.

Everything is central as well. Not as much hassle as London.

All the talk of secret shows and us Irish are just here like "....we don't even get a non-secret show..." :P

And we're not even saying "Oh God, I hope they do a secret show here!" We know the chances of that happening are much too slim to get our hopes up :rolleyes: I'll settle for the UK!

A proper show in Thomond Park during the tour would be a dream come true.

I don't care where it is, pretty much everywhere is ridiculously difficult to get to for me, stupid lincolnshire. Unless they fancy coming to play Louth Town Hall..

this conversation wouldn`t even be happening if people didn`t keep hinting that they knew something but weren`t allowed to to say thing. :P
