Understood...well, if it helps to ease the pain, like I said us two can't go. We are moving house :)>- fingers crossed, and that will probably coincide. And the small matter of work. But happy vibes from me to anyone who can go. You lucky buggers!

oh nice. a qick think at lunch time.

Greenwich was never the only London date it was a seporate one that was listed as a only London date to shift tickets. as I wouldnt have gone to both possibly. Its not up to the band how gigs are listed/quoted as. its just business. They dont want to lie to us but its not their descision. When any band announce a UK tour they often leave the London gig to be announced later on. Not sure why always but its common.

Somoene said about them not doing much tour in North America. Do you know how much the VISAs cost alone? I wont go into it.

THESE FLIPIN TICKETS ALWAYS GO ON SALE AT 9AM when im at work FFS. Itl prob be sold out before lunch time. 9am? Ejits. Clearly ticket sellers convience not mine. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Oh another seated gig. um ok. Ill prob go anyway ;)

also, stop bickering. Imagine when they split up..................

"Touring steals your life" - Sister Bliss 2004 . That's why . And it's a 'gamble' on selling enough tickets (please no perceived "they'll sell out dates everywhere for sure") even more so since this albums material isn't "wabble wousing anthems" time . That gamble could bankrupt them . I have the same opinion I always have , the band (Al and Will) know best - they pay the bills after all .

In better news , I could be hit by a bus tomorrow .

Agreed. they've both been in the business for a while, they really do need to be given some credit for knowing what they're doing to achieve the goals and aims they have in mind. (which may not be the same aims/goals others see for them)

Make sure you've got clean pants on sartori.

There are fans who will be delighted that Goldfrapp have decided to do ‘Tales of Us’ in its entirety, especially with an orchestra and the Royal Albert Hall as the venue. Those people will undoubtedly be in for a real treat, unfortunately I don’t count myself amongst their number.
There are certainly whole Goldfrapp albums that I would more than happily sit through live however ‘Tales of Us’ isn’t one of them. Add in the price of seats with a decent view and it’s with a heavy heart that I’ll be giving this one a miss. All the best to those going though - keep the moshing to a minimum!

Oh and here's some photos I took when they played the Royal Albert Hall 25/06/2008. *cues up 'The Way We Were'*

I've booked a hotel nearby already for me and my parents :) can cancel if I'm not able to get tickets. Hope the pre-sale means we get pick of the best seats......

What really hurts is that I'll miss Will on stage? Sobs into bubble wrap ( there's a lot of it about here). I'd give my right hoof to be able to go...
