Concerts at the New Stadium

[YB123]

Imagine Dragons now. Not my bag, but they are an arena filler as far as I'm aware.

Yep will most likely sell out but I dont find it quite bizarre it will be on the same day as Oasis at Wembley.

Not much of an overlap between Oasis and Imagine Dragon fans surely?!

Although half the people I know who managed to get Oasis tickets are going for the vibes rather than actually being massive fans of the band back in the day, so what do I know?!

I don't either. There are usually dozens of gigs going on all over London most days. Best city in the world for live music imo.

 

[Marty]

I was hoping they'd reschedule Pearl Jam but that's looking increasingly unlikely.

Yep. A lot of bandwagon jumping and Wonderwall Warriors in force...

I hope Imagination Dragons have Impractical Jokers as their opening act

Is it? Or is it just youngsters who have found their music taste through their parents?
Only my lad's Spotify playlist is full of music that I've introduced him to, from Oasis, Blur, The Wedding Present, Pigeon Detectives, The Cure, Under The Rug, Pixies, to Ska and all sorts of genres.
He's 16 but listens to more "older" music than anything in the charts these days.

And when I was his age, I listened to The Beatles, Hendrix, The Stones, Blondie and The Police, all things I got from my dad.
As well as being a big fan of early 90's indie and hip-hop.

I don't like this idea that because you weren't around in a bands heyday, you can't become a big fan of their music.

Some people just like and appreciate good music, no matter when it was made in comparison to them being born.

No. dont disagree. I'm a 90s child and love a lot of the 80s stuff.

But being active on Social Media, I can tell you there will be social media attention seekers who have purchased tickets purely for "the gram". Already know people who have admitted they are not big fans and have purchased tickets.

I'm sure there's loads of legit people who are going.

I just happen to know a few people, older and younger than myself (I'm 40), who are going despite never being particularly bothered by the band back then.

It's a FOMO thing. Ironically, most Oasis fans I know completely missed out. Including me.

Yep, suddenly everyone is an oasis fan. I've seen them before because I've always followed them but a lot of people there won't have listened to the entirety of an album and are just there to say they went.

Oasis should have been better with their questioning to get the sale codes as I think Liam will get pissed off being faced with a crowd full of iphones (the amount of cash will make up for it but can imagine the lip he'll give them and then everyone will inevitably complain)

 

[Saoirse]

Apparently Beyoncé is doing another 5 dates at our stadium next summer

 

[mil1lion]

The dynamic pricing thing is a joke. Imagine they did that for Spurs tickets. The answer to tackle touting is to charge people above face value which is the whole issue with touting. Madness.

 

[aliyid]

Imagine Dragons get a lot of bad rep but I quite liked their earlier stuff. The latest album (LOOM) is absolute trash but Evolve & Mercury are pretty good

We’ve just had my 6 year old Grandson for a couple of days. We gave him free run of Apple Music on my phone. Then I received a notification from Apple Music that it had created a playlist of songs in heavy rotation: it consisted of It’sTricky by Run DMC, Here Comes the Hotstepper by Ini Kamize, I’m Still Standing, and a selection of Chas and Dave Spurs Songs.

Quite proud of the last.

I saw them the last time they played Wembley with the Reverand’s and Kasabian. Got to say I thought Oasis were a 4/10 which was a shame. Kasabian stole the show by a mile. I hope Oasis step it up and don’t let the fans down.

Yep didn't see this one but that was said at the time for that tour, they can pull in some massive headliners for this comeback gig but wouldn't get my hopes up as after that tour they will probably pull in some lesser bands to support so they come out as kings for their own comeback tour

 

[wishkah]

You could say Dynamic pricing has gone too far...

for 6k i want a real dragon (not an imaginary one) to lick my balls.

Oh god no

Yeah I can vouch for that. I'm from the 80s/90s generation but I grew up with the Beatles and Beach Boys thanks to my Dad.
