I can't deny that I would have been very happy to have been at that 30th anniversary new Jersey gig.

Bodies with Chino Moreno (would love a full album)
Corgan performing Malibu with Love (which I think is up there with songs he's helped pen).

Those performances with Courtney Love are cringe worthy.

The stuff with Chino was much better,cover of Snail was awesome.

I didn't watch BWBW as assumed it wouldn't be great but enjoyed Malibu.

I can’t believe it’s 30 years, I’m getting old 😢

Only heared this version of bullet with butterfly wings for the first time this week. I love it!

Billy the family man

Didn't realise he'd had a kid. Good for him, always got the impression he was something if an isolated person.

S.M.B. · 24-08-2018 2:28pm

Show being streamed on twitter tonight. Think it's about 4.00am our time though.

Really good interview with Billy here. I've always enjoyed his earnestness.

Hey hey I'm running a campaign (very informal and casually) to build up support to get them back to Ireland in 2019! Any and every help is needed to drum up support to get the likes of MCD & Aiken to try book them.

If you could sign and share the below I plan to try get a few thousand and fire it off to the 2 above mentioned and see what happens.

He comes across really well here.

UrbanSprawl · 14-09-2018 12:21pm

Not sure I would be interested to see them in Ireland after London tbh

Admirable but they are playing across the water,they will likely play here in the future anyways..now if you want to start a compulsion petition to play a gig that I can get behind!

Oasis1974 · 22-09-2018 12:18pm

All those bands reform for the money anyways. Dire music I'd sign a petition to keep them bloody well out...

Wrongway1985 · 22-09-2018 12:24pm

They have to be doubted as a draw 2 dates in Europe and they can't sell out Wembley arena.

I've actually got a ticket myself since posting that...well looking forward, gold circle in an arena is a right scummy move though and it was €90 odd euro for my general admission even, it's obvious one date in London not being sucked up immediately represents a possible future date in the arena here particularly at those prices is surely a non runner?

The times have been posted elsewhere,

Doors: 6pm
Myrkur: 6:45-7:20
Pumpkins: 7:45-11

Possible 3 hours 15 min is obviously well decent and I've seen Myrkur before pretty good imo although maybe a slightly left field choice for this I would've thought.

S.M.B. · 05-10-2018 9:03pm

Setlists look pretty set in stone now and are pretty impressive. Still not sure I can bring myself to splash out on tickets when I found myself unimpressed when I last saw them pre reunion line up.

Was wondering about support must check them out ,was hoping for someone like metric .Tis by the far the most expensive gig I have ever gone to when all is totted up,only booked the hotel and flights recently.Didn't go for the premier hotel as collie suggested as the bridge house looked a bit nicer,less corporate and was slightly cheaper.

I consider this a one off ,if they do come to Ireland again will be touring some crappy album.Lets be honest its all about hearing the old tunes!

RicketyCricket · 05-10-2018 10:01pm

Baulked at the ticket price first but eventually gave in and bought one for London. In fairness its a 3 hour show. You won't get that from many bands in their 50's. Setlist will be the same as the US shows. Whether we see them here again is anyones guess.

UrbanSprawl · 06-10-2018 12:47am

ok well wont be rushing to see the openers ..not picking holes will be amazing just MYRKUR a bit nightwishy dated goth rock ..

Told you it was a leftfield choice in fairness

Absolutely nothing like Nightwish at all though more a folk tinged with black metal project not to mention vocals are in Danish.
