Arcade Fire next Saturday 27th Oct in Manchester

Who's going then? Is it worth me getting a ticket? Obviously the intended destination was Re: Order, but if I have to see Arcade Fire instead I might as well. Doesn't seem to be a lot else on Saturday night unfortunately, if anyone has any better ideas let me know please before I book this ticket!

Me Alex John & Christine and their kids Some girl i know from school and her hubby Grant my mate kieron from uni my mate Ryan from uni and his mrs my mate matt from uni and some of his lot My boss

and several thousand others.

Taken the plunge.....sat upstairs though, no standing tickets left. Suppose I'd better familiarise myself with some of their stuff then. Where's the pre-gig?

dunno yet.

I saw them a month ago in Salt Lake City- a great show.
fully recommended to everyone.

Have fun everyone!!!!

Best gig I've ever been to, with the exception of the wretched cover of Still Ill!

we had lots of fun drinking and singing along,which took others around us a bloody long time to finally join in with..luckily we were in standing and it sounded good down the front were we stood.went to back pick up some beers and it didnt sound half as good,must be awful being in them back wall seats.i hate big arena's anyway.good gig though.glad you liked it tim we sat outside oyster bar pre gig because i didnt know where everyone was drinking

quality gig,enjoyed it a lot more than the apollo gigs this year but not as much as the first time i saw them at leeds festival a couple of years ago,i was hoping for a new order cover and thought we were going to get it for a moment,can't have everything though can you

ace gig first time me and mrs spam ave seen em. good day out in manc and finished off with a pure musical treat

nope , listened to the first album again today and it's still not blowing me away.will have to try the second and catch them live to "get" them

I had this problem with Mercury Rev .Gave up on them in the end.Where are they now? exactly

if you didn't like funeral then neon bible ain't going to do it for you, its a very disappointing second album. gone right off them these days, they were much better live a couple of years ago.

comparing the bristol academy in 2005 to the 2 brixtons in 2007 & the bristol gig was streets ahead
