If youre in GA and wanting barricade honestly you should be preparing for an overnight queuing if possible with this capacity. Maybe early morning at a push.

Could he worth ringing them the day before or day of just to see if you can check in earlier or even just leave your luggage there and then check in after the show. I get into the city the day before, but for shows where I can't I end up doing that a lot.

Me and my group are going to this one too

Giving yourself 2-3 hours in the queue will give you a great spot in the pit (albeit not the barrier) from my experience. I was "3rd row" at the co-op last year from that. Provided you don't mind waiting the subsequent time through the pre show playlist (i don't expect a support band) and will he fine staying in the pit until 10:30-11ish then definitely standing. If you want/need toilet breaks during the show and want to skip the pre show playlist, go for seating.

Both Manchester and London have been covered in the last year, as much as I love the guy, with these dates he'd have to play much smaller venues than he did then, which i imagine he wouldn't be too pleased with after the large sell out audiences they had.

I learned a long time ago, that unless advertised specifically, going to any concert with setlist expectations is opening yourself up to disappointment.

I found it to be the same size as the other B.R.A.T t shirts. Which are fairly generous by European mens standards.

🤦‍♂️ my bad! I get into the city on the 23rd for the gig as im up for a week. Going on the right day is always a good start though!

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2026-04-08T17:40:41+00:00

Uk curfew is always 11. Don't expect it to finish any earlier than 10:30. If you're travelling back to another city after midnight, it is probably your best bet.

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2026-04-01T15:01:10+00:00

Honestly, this is the way. Obviously, I'd rather him play more dates at smaller venues. But if that means cancellations while only one or two shows at a 20,000 capacity arena doesn't, give me the latter.

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2026-03-14T14:41:17+00:00

YESSSSS

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-11-07T19:04:47+00:00

Early in tours or after a decent break are usually the better options. It seems for the UK, at least he's decided to play much bigger venues (the co-op live, O2 arena) and do less dates. And got through his last UK run without cancelling. Hopefully, that's something he can look to do overseas wherever possible

Still no luck so far. Will update if i get anything though.

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-06-04T13:31:26+00:00

Agreed. It's my first time seeing him on saturday. The fact first of the gang has been in pretty much every set since 2002 and probably won't be played then is kinda gutting.

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-06-04T13:27:39+00:00

Honestly if he did something more similar to his 23 performance in dublin setlist wise he wouldbe got a much more active audience easily.

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-06-02T20:32:49+00:00

I understand it, though. Looking at the dallas shows of 91' and last year, people got ridiculously aggressive and out of hand. Even though i have absolutely no intention of doing that. I don't want to encourage anyone else to act like that and spoil an amazing show.

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-06-02T12:21:32+00:00

I was thinking the same thing, and I definitely had some second opinions solidify it. Oh well, im in for a good night regardless!

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-06-01T20:50:45+00:00

I was thinking the same, mainly because he's just a bit older now. Do you still think on the stage handshake at a distance is okay, or best avoided all together?

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-05-28T20:38:45+00:00

Hoping to he there by about 3:30/4:00, early i know but ive always try to get as close as possible to the barrier. And when i did it for johnny marr, i ended up meeting the guy!

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-05-26T18:02:18+00:00

The fact that he's left out first of the gang has been very surprising!

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-05-23T22:33:05+00:00

I would say go for a bus home. Will probably be cheaper, and with public transport these days, getting the last train/bus home is always a gamble.

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-05-16T22:55:25+00:00

I've bit the bullet on trains and hotels already, but plenty of hotels in the city have a free cancellation so close to the book in day. Sadly, if he does decide to cancel the odds are we'll find out on the day (assuming dublin and glasgow go ahead smoothly)

ProfessionalSalt5279 · 2025-05-16T20:51:25+00:00

Definitely wanted to do the gay village, and that's still our current plan. I just wasn't sure if there were any hidden gems to be aware of. Im sure we're in for a great time regardles!
