[giblet]

Correct code is THESKY17UK

Just got tickets for the Manchester gig. Sorted!

Was about to post that too. Tickets for Saturday in London sorted

I've always been a huge Foos fan, but I reckon it's pretty average (although nowhere near as bad as Sonic Highways). Run is a great tune but I've not really taken to the rest of it yet.

Saw them at Glastonbury earlier this year and have seen them at MK Bowl on the Wasting Light tour, so think I'll give this one a miss.

Happy to help! I’ve been wanting to see them for years but never managed to get tickets until now. Accidently bought 4 tickets instead of 3 for the Manchester gig as I was in such a rush to get them purchased.

I don’t drink but I’d happily accept some suggestions on things to do in Oslo as I’m there with some friends this weekend.

Without your post I’d have been frantically trying for tomorrows presale as I had the email for that. All I did was compare the 2 and realise that UK was missing. If anyone wants in on the presale tomorrow the code is THELINE17UK

[TheAlastair34]

does the code work on all the ticket platforms?

I'm in the same camp as you , apart from run it just sounds like a load of b sides chucked together.

The B-sides description is pretty apt. I think even with some of the most legendary bands there comes a time when they just kind of run out of good ideas/inspiration and any new material becomes a limp parody of the great stuff that's gone before. I would have thought after the Sonic Highways abomination they would have spent longer on the latest album - it's not like they're under pressure to release new material.

Best of luck to everyone trying for tickets, even if the last couple of albums aren't great (IMO) they still put on a fantastic show! Well, except when they inevitably trot out Cold Day In The Sun, that's when you go for a tactical mid-show piss/go to the bar.

With all the stuff going on in America like trump , gun crime how can they run out of ideas .

I wish they'd get a bit more edgy and political as they get older kind of like rise against or billy talent.

I've enjoyed pretty much every song I have to be honest. I love to find out ore about the reason behind each song though aswell ever since sonic highways. Going to try for tickets tomorrow as was out at work today with no signal girlfriend q really wants to see them and I'm never going to say no.

So who's going this weekend?

I'm at the Saturday show! Can't wait, been trying to get tickets for the last few gigs in the UK.

I have 2 spares at face value if anyone's interested.
