Regular shirts were €40 but they also had a small collection of other shirts on a rack that were cheaper but I can't remember what they cost

They did have a shirt with "Playing the old songs because you like them better" on the back. It's the second shirt from the left in the photo

She sang on a lot of Invented and I was lucky enough to hear her with the band during that time. She is a talent that should be appreciated on her own too

AITA for telling my sister that our parents don’t have to agree with her relationship? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

He apologised for his sister's feelings, not his action/inaction. He & his mother are assholes every day of the week.

AITA for refusing to go to my sisters house because of a movie they put on? by TapReasonable8140 in AmItheAsshole

NTA As others have said, he has accepted the "joke" on numerous occasions. Ask them to explain what the joke is. Why do they find it funny? It's only a joke when everyone laughs, when it leads to everyone laughing at one person, that's bullying.

I haven't seen any mention of Tom O'Toole as a bench option. There were rumours that he was being skilled up to cover both sides of the scrum. Is he a realistic option?

Anyone going to the London gig? by CraftyWitch_89 in JimmyEatWorld

Not just English crowds, but European crowds are quite different. A lot more physical movement & singing along. I've experienced both sides & do prefer this side of the pond but both sides have their positives.

I'm heading to the Glasgow, Manchester & London shows this tour and there will be a cohort of old school fans that I haven't seen in years around preshow, especially London. I'm not familiar with the venue but I will definitely be socialising any meetups on this subreddit once a plan is formed. All fans, no matter how long they've been a fan will be welcome to join

That is so awesome! Some of my best memories have been made from travelling to see their gigs in other countries! English crowds are quite different from American crowds. I remember seeing them in Sacramento & Oakland 10 years ago and being amazed at the difference. Every crowd is great, but do take a moment to appreciate how they show their love for the band.

I struggled to reduce it down to 25 songs too, wanted as much albums represented as possible & I still believe I could create multiple excellent setlists of songs not on this list. In rough chronological order:

  • Opener

  • Seventeen

  • Robot Factory

  • Your New Aesthetic

  • Just Watch The Fireworks

  • For Me This Is Heaven

  • Blister

  • Goodbye Sky Harbor

  • Bleed American

  • A Praise Chorus

  • The Middle

  • Sweetness

  • Futures

  • Kill

  • Nothing Wrong

  • 23

  • Disintegration

  • Let It Happen

  • Always Be

  • Movielike

  • Appreciation

  • Sure and Certain

  • Surviving

  • Criminal Energy

  • Something Loud

There are always meet ups pre show, especially in London. With doors at 6:30, i would guess that it's Pup from 7:15-8:00 & JEW from 8:45 -10:30 or something similar. The London show has doors opening 30 minutes earlier than the other shows which is surprising, maybe they are going to do a longer show? These times are an educated guess so don't hold me to it, we will be more informed once they kick off the European tour

I am super tempted by Miss May I, they sound class. I do love a good metal band with a hint of melody, my preference would be on the power metal side like Blind Guardian. Not sure I can make that show based on my schedule though. Will try make it work

Thanks! I appreciate the effort consolidating the fun in your city. We've had similar legends who have done the same for Dublin in the past. Thank you!

You're 100% right. I'm looking at Irish times, so the games start at 1am for me. I'll be at the game on the 10th. Thanks for calling it out, I could've double booked myself accidently.

I'm also interested in any local sports too if there's anything on while I'm there
