This is one gig I certainly wont miss. Any idea of the ticket price?

I wonder who shall support, razorlight are doing the honours for a few uk gigs (urgh) they also said that they'd drop you love us/motorcycle emptiness from their setlist, i doubt they'll do alot of the holy bible stuff, this new album has been touted as a break from their past etc

There was word about either a gig at the astoria as a holy bible tirbute bs by the band or a re released holy bivble with dvd etc

i hope the new album is good, when is it released, the new single is getting its first play tomorrow on radio one after ten am on some person called jo's radio show. the love of richard nixon. a special holy bible is being released alright, dunno wht the extras are thoguh

savemejebus

it's Jo Whileys radio show on bbc radio (1) i think, they did the same with if you tolerate this... . Will have to see if i can listen to it via the net at work tomorrow morning,

Also the website says there is gonna be some big announcement right after. Not gonna get my hopes up for anything too special tho

Lads these tickets have just gone onsale on ticketmaster.ie a day early. Just picked mine up there now. See you down the front.........

Thanks for the heads up s8n, got my tix so am a happy camper, actually not true cos i heard that song yesterday and it ...... well it wasn't quite as bad as so why so sad but it did remind me of the human league

s8n

just got the mp3 of it now. It's different, but a natural progression. Very depeche mode, but scarily james voice sounds like Robbie Williams on his (crap) new single.

ronano

ah crap, better be standing left tomorrow!

it was sloppy the whole ticketmaster thingy bob

anyhow ya the single is a bit :S with the vocals but i think the rest of the album songs should be at least interesting, the vocals remind me of when they did 'too cold here' or 'spectators of suicide'
