  1. Oh yeah, that. Me and my friend were lucky to get in. I got in without any problems, but when we were about to get our ticket ripped and told to go in, the woman took about 10 seconds to look at my friend's ticket. It was worrying, but ah well, it was a good night in the end

    I think You Me At Six are playing in the US next month along with 3 other great bands.
  2. If I were living at home at the time, I'd buy tickets in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, without my car with me at University, I'm just out of reach of most of those smaller type shows. When I live at home, I get to virtually any show however I want to. Just a little harder at school. I do have quite the lineup prepared for 2012 already, though.

  3. That is of course tentative to what gets announced...especially for May, my first month home from school. I'm sure I'll see something that month. Feb and April I'll probably stay dry.
  4. Aw fuck man they're at a fantastically small venue on the north side of Chicago called the Beat Kitchen for only TEN DOLLARS, but its on a Wednesday night. No way I can swing getting there by any means.
  5. Not bad. I'd love to see Van Halen. Seen Arctic Monkeys, might see The Black Keys - they are playing in Edinburgh in March. So far, it looks like this for me:

    June 6 - Coldplay
    June 20 - Pearl Jam (might end up going on the second night too)
    August 24-26 - Reading & Leeds Festival
  6. I've seen the Arctic Monkeys as well, but they're double-billing with TBK so I couldn't resist.

    Go to both nights of PJ.
  7. At the time, I couldn't afford the second night. I'm gonna have to search for a second night ticket somewhere. Damn I'm so looking forward to seeing them.

    Who's headlining Lollapalooza? Or is there any rumours of who is headlining it?
  8. Rumors include, but are by NO MEANS CONFIRMED ...

    Metallica
    Radiohead
    The Black Keys (almost certainly will play)
    MGMT
    Red Hot Chili Peppers
    Pearl Jam
    Vampire Weekend
    Tiesto
    Drake
    Justice
    The Killers

    Not all on the same bill at all, but just names getting tossed around as possibilities based on new albums/touring schedules/general speculation
  9. That's the same for Reading and Leeds, no acts confirmed yet but alot of acts being rumoured and all. Those artists include:

    Foo Fighters
    Green Day
    The Killers
    The Stone Roses
    Two Door Cinema Club
    Radiohead

    I'd be extremely happy with the first three as headliners.
  10. Killers new album should be absolutely prime. Love new stuff from them. Foo Fighters are legendary, Green Day are meh anymore but I'd still see them, Stone Roses on that big comeback would be epic to see at a fest, and Radiohead....they're gonna have to prove themselves as a live band that can support themselves after that shitty King of Dicks album.

    Don't know anything about TDCC but they might be opening for Foster the People when I see them? Thought I read that somewhere.
  11. Dinnertime Kieran, be back shortly.
  12. Foster the People - are they actually any good? I've never heard any song from them, I just know that there is quite a hype amongst them.

    Cool, enjoy dinner.
