I'll have a 2 month old, but I've already got the all-clear for an evening out. The O2 arena would've been more convenient and I can't really imagine 'em in a stadium, but eh, I'll take what I can.

So am I correct in thinking that if you're in the 10C lottery for this show you either get exclusive front standing or you're in the seats- whereas you could go general admission in the public sale and get a standing ticket (albeit not in the front area). Seems like there might be a lot of 10C seating tickets put up for sale??

Surprised they're doing a stadium. Never thought they were big enough. I suppose this is instead of doing 2x nights at the 02.

Yeah is a surprise. But I guess Milton Keynes Bowl was even bigger?

I didn't wait for presale. I remember balking at paying £80 for a Tom Waits show 15 years ago and I've never had a chance to see him again, so...

Crazy pricing though.

Yeah I paused for a moment. Up until now I don't think I'd paid more than 100 quid for a ticket. A few hovering around the 90 quid mark, might have broken 100 with fees I suppose. But to top 150... got me thinking how long until shows will be 200 a pop. Utter madness. Still, I won't be thinking about that on 29 June.

Ashcroft is decent support tbh as well. Been meaning to catch him ever since I decided to watch Moby rather than him at a festival 20+years ago.

Yeah lots of tickets left. I suspected it would struggle to sell given the price, and that it clashes with Green Day at Wembley and Glastonbury weekend.

We're 5 weeks before the show and there are still many tickets left. Especially on the 2nd ring.

I don't think even a significant price drop would make much of a dent at this point so they'll probably start giving them away to the blue light brigade.
