@Black&White&BlueMoon Town

Thanks mate, been a long week of work and this is just the news I needed to round it out.

I have all of their albums on the phone for airplane mode. If they don't tour the US, I'll be coming over for gigs. Not missing them this round, especially given The Universal Want tour didn't get to happen. Hope the guys are all doing well and looking forward to playing to their fans!

Cheers!

Feels so good that they are the topic of conversation again, it's been awhile. Love the new song, can't wait for the album to drop and I presume the poster is about a tour.
Will defo be getting a ticket for them.

Welcome back lads.

If new single released today and new album announced for February, surely announcement on 13th must be a tour.....

Defo news of a tour, must be.

Just as a little side note, 35 years ago on November 13th the roses released Fools Gold/What the world is waiting for, absolutely no significance to it, purely just coincidence. :)

Hopefully tickets go on sale on the 15th.

 

[Oyster28catcher]

New album ordered. Decent single released, with some deep lyrics.
Good to see them back!



Constellations for the Lonely will be released in February. Some announcements soon, likely a tour.

 

[manimanc]

Teasing us.

Roll on Tuesday.

 

[manimanc]

It's Stoke, Hebden Bridge and Birkenhead.
Pre-sale on their mailing list on Monday.

Couldn't have picked three nicer places :)

Think I'll wait til the tours announced.

 

[Out on blue 6]

There will be no Jimi on these dates I've just read. Andy and Jez singing and Rebelski as always on keys. Couple of others joining the band. Jimi still working on his mental health but has given his blessing

 

[manimanc]

Hope he gets well soon as they are shit hot live.
Maybe that is why they have got the album release and tour scheduled for next year in order to ensure Jimi is fighting fit and tip top.
He's going to be there watching apparently.

Just do half.... Oh, not those doves.

Drop one at 9.45 and one at 10.15 after getting in wherever I was planning to spend the next 12 hours of my life

I'd love to go back. Just for one night

Or drop the second thinking the first one is a dud...

Or drop the second thinking the first one is a dud...

I only ever did that the first time I took them, I always made sure I had at least two after that. They were absolutely unreal back in the day. Would hate to think what they're mixed with now.

 

[manimanc]

Full tour announced for next year including a Manchester gig at Factory International/ Aviva Studios.
Again, it will just be Jez and Andy as Jimi continues to step back from live performances...

Setlist from last night at Sugarmill, 27th November.

Cheers for that. Nice they chose "Mother Silverlake" off The Universal Want, though Setlist has an edit to make below. ;-) Makes perfect sense with the lineup. Only 2 off the latest so we'll see if more new tracks get added.

A heavy dose off the first 2 with "Rise" and "Sea Song". Amazing.



Jealous over here. :-( Patience required...
