Yes it is. No one from Manchester knows anything on this board. You want to ask one of Americans
I could also suggest a support band for the London date - one that was around the same time as Magazine.....
Both gigs definitely happening - the Forum have advertised the London date but no tkts as yet.....

on another music forum someone was saying it is going to be a ' special guest ' in place of john.
people always start with that one though dont they
Marc Riley was saying he knew who it was on his BBC6 show but was sworn to secrecy - adding "You won't be disappointed"
If you take a look at that video of Definitive Gaze and particularly, the last 30 seconds, McGeoch is a dead ringer for Steve Jones. Who copied that action from Johnny Thunders (right, Banshee?). I suspect Steve Jones might step in.
Are they going to be playing songs from their four albums? Playing "Real Life" and "Secondhand Daylight" back to back would make a great gig.

I don't think I'll travel down to the gigs (I'm in Scotland) but I am interested in them as far as setlists, line ups are concerned.
Another question: Are they just doing a few gigs or are they going to be recording new material?
just seen this,been hols for last 10 days..so i have to ask this..who's doing manc? ,and who's doing london??
me and my bro got tickets for friday 13th at london forum.
anyone else going ?
someone must surely know who the 'special guest' is in place of the legend john
it will be ace,cant bloody wait
if anyone going lets have a pre gig 
Another reason for me to be jealous/bitter in the U.S. of A. What do you think the chances of Howard et al doing somethng in the summer, like when some of us could actually make a trip over?
thank you ( falettinme be mice elf agin)
i was also going to put that on here on here at some point.
anyone going london forum 13th ?
'Howard, it's your last chance to be venerable' Howard Devoto, the man who brought punk to Manchester, tells Dave Simpson about his troubles, his triumphs - and why it's the right time for a Magazine reunion:

Yeah, that's the kiddy. Might be a different pub though, Alex is going out drinking with the Third Battalion somewhere round there! 
I ain't got your number now (got dipped in Rome and lost Sim card) so can't let you know where we are - I'm still on the old number though.
Can someone buy me a drink? I've left my wallet at home. Doh. :\ohwell:
cracking gig.good setlist.very muted crowd though.
best bit was the train home today
magazine got on my train back to manchester at dinner time so i went to the bottom of the carrage to shake all their hands.
when we landed at manc piccadilly i spotted the band go down the lift to the taxi rank,so i got the lift down and saw howard devoto getting into the back of a black cab.i was still tipsy from the night before and i got in the other side of his cab while phoning monty on my mobile.devoto jumped out of his skin when i suddenly appeared next to him in his cab. i said to devoto ' say hello to my mate monty ' and gave him my phone,he said ' hello monty ' in a sarcastic tone.so i said ' thats not good enough,say hello again!! ' he did.
then i phoned my brother and said ' right say hello to my brother now ' it was like an alan partridge moment with his stalker.when i got out i half expected him to shout MENTALIST out his cab window
oopps this is mad i now see
