Said this recently during festival season he still has a huge following, it's probably getting bigger, he is one of if not the biggest headliner going here at the moment, the demand for this will be monstrous, he'll probably add a 2nd night and easily sell out both Says more about the lack of big bands in the last decade that 18 year old lads are wanting to go see him rather than them And then he'll no doubt add bands like the DMAs, maybe the courteeners, probably ashcroft as his support I'll see what tickets is up to the week before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just assumed that it was acts like Robbie Williams, Oasis and Led Zep who played Knebworth. Clearly I have no clue about his stature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 I don't think it's a coincidence that he's announced it whilst the Knebworth documentary film has been bumped up to national cinema release, if oasis hadnt done it before maybe he couldn't generate the buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Johns back so they'll be alright thundercat and anderson paak supporting which would be worth a watch too although the strokes are supporting in the states which would be a great night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lovies all gush for Thundercat, no idea why Also another frickin odd support act compared to the main act Buy-ons for support slots have always been a thing at this level but they used to at least try and make them make sense, seems to be highest bidder now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 last time i saw them james brown supported so maybe its their choice james brown was a weird experience, 14 minute long version of living in america sang by the backing singers with him screaming "good god y'all" every now and then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't attempting to belittle his playing, i agree he's really good, it's his actual music, it's full of his phenomenal playing ability and that makes it rather boring Mark King of Level 42 was a great bass player, Level 42 were shite though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his best stuff is when he's gone down the more funk/soul route. I love his more jazz/fusion/crazy stuff but his envelope filter-heavy bass tone works so well for funk. I quite like Level 42 guilty pleasure I guess you could say... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Allback_14 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I’ll fess up as well and say I got RHCP tickets this week but for Glasgow instead of London I’ve not seen them with John so that’s my justification - £185 for two tickets which must be the most I’ve paid for a single day event 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysAVFC Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 First gig in god knows when later. Went to Victorious festival for a day in the summer but my last proper gig was well before Covid. Weirdly I've actually been to very few gigs in Birmingham, always seem to go elsewhere. Tonight is The Skints at The Mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie09 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Kasabian Sheffield last night. Seen them many times but first time without Tom. They didn’t disappoint, they’re a different band with more of Serge’s dance tunes on the setlist but definitely good live. Looking forward to seeing them in Brum in a couple of weeks.
