The Return Of My Bloody Valentine

Someone make a gif of the Viggo thing.

Okey so there's tickets released on Friday then.

London, Manchester & Glasgow next summer

kinda surprised there isn't more excitement about this!

i hope some US dates follow.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if they played Coachella first.

I don't think my ears could take it now. They barely could at 23.

????!

i'm pretty damn excited, i'll be getting roundhouse tickets

if they do cochella i'll hold out hope for an SF date around the same time since Colm still lives up here

Unmissable.

> I don't think my ears could take it now. They barely could at 23.

i have just bought a nice pair of ear plugs. not sure i could take the boredom of YMMR though...

So, London NedFAP in June 2008 then?

Astounding!

I'm pretty much willing to bet April show at Coachella at this point. In which case, I finally go to Coachella and y'all can fly out here instead. As it stands otherwise the lovely weak American dollar and all is giving me pause.

there will definitely be US dates (including SF) but Colm is living in LA at the moment.

rumor has it that these will actually be all-acoustic sets

:(

Man, I would like to Colm rocking the bongos.

...with Japancakes as backing band

kshields interviewed by ian sveonius on annoying vice tv:

I still see Colm Berkeley once a month. Glad to hear they will be playing out here though. This will actually warrant getting a babysitter, for once

where does ian svenonions get off

ian sevonius is hilarious i love his interviews

What an awful interviewer.

I think the word 'tit' is most appropriate.

Wot?

rumor has it that these will actually be all-acoustic sets

this has to be bullshit, surely?

"Though Shields music transcends language, he was kind enough to use language when he spoke with us"

I didn't think I would be but I'm unfeasibly excited about this - trying for tickets for London and Glasgow.

A year and a half ago this news would have caused me to start screaming, quite literally -- zOMGGGGGGGG!!!!, etc. Now, though, as there is no possible way I can attend any of these shows... Wait. Maybe I can go to Coachella. Fucking hell. You see, I NEVER GOT TO SEE MBV! So YAAAAAAAAOOOOWWWW!

*cough* As you were.

This morning I found that the line "I worked for a while on a fishing boat right outside of Delacroix" can be sung along to Drive it all over me

Just got tickets for the Manchester show - would it be poor form to wear my Loveless T-shirt from the last time they toured? It's a bit old and faded, and has a big hole in it - but still...

Surprise surprise, Seetickets has fallen over. This is like buying Glastonbury tickets all over again.

AND london's sold out

bugger

It had sold out by the time I could get into the website. Ah well.

London show is sold out according to the website, just tried to get 2 tickets.. weirdly I just got an email confirmation addressed to a MR MRCARTNEY saying I had bought 4 tickets to the Manchester show though!

My friend tried to buy some and got this message for London:

9:02 Sorry, there has been a problem with your order

Reason - TICKETS HAVE NOW SOLD OUT (TS2) (R1)

x-post: JINX

Sorry, there has been a problem with your order

Reason - PLEASE CALL 0871 230 0010 TO CHECK ON AVAILABILITY (CTC5) (R1)

Jonbat - I got exactly the same message as you - Mr McCartney, 4 Manchester tickets... I fear we're out of luck...

Haha what a load of cack. I hope this Mr McCartney doesn't end up with thousands of tickets billed to him.

Tickets going on ebay for mad money.

Touts are fucking cunts aren't they?

Utter utter bollocks. I got through at 8.59 but the bloke sent me packing. Impossible to connect their website from then on.

...or their phone line

Manchester sold out.

eBay sellers... 'I am a power seller'. No you're not. You are vermin and you need to be beaten to death.
