roundhouse shows!
 

has anyone received tickets for the show yet? i order mine for the 1st september show soon as they were released and yet have received nothing...

I got mine about a week after I ordered them. I ordered them straight from the roundhouse though. If you used an outside ticket sales site then you'll get them a couple weeks before the show.

if you ordered them through SeeTickets they will not arrive until about 5-4 days before the event, they do that to stop you selling them on ebay.

roundhouse. now there was a fuckni show

ok cool, yeah i fone dem this morning and they said they hadnt received any tickets yet.

i heard the place is like 500 person venue, fuck me its gonna be amaizing in there :)

For sure. And I'll be right up at the front.

i will be in the middle dancing my ass off.

Seriously? Its going to be crazy!

Capacity of the main space in the roundhouse is 3300. Not quite that intimate but smaller than brixton academy where they last played a couple of years ago.

haha yeah me too

"Its takes a teenage riot to get me out of bed" *jiggling about*

i think the brixton is a better venue, it's got that slanted floor so no matter where you stand you can see the band.

Brixton is wa-a-a-a-y too big though.

it take about 30 minutes to get out of the roundhouse, they only have one staircase for the entire venue and its tiny!

Next month will be my first visit to the Roundhouse, so I'll have to reserve judgement, but I do know that I don't like going to gigs at Brixton. There's something very flat about the atmosphere at that place.

I hope I won't get lost in London finding the Roundhouse club.

If you find a puzzled young man wandering somewhere with a map in hand and rough eastern european accent, that's most likely me.

y'all can invite me for a cup of tea or what.

Just follow who ever looks the most indie, they'll know where they're going.

Don't you worry, I'll look after you.

thats what he says to all the girls and indeed boys.

i wish they'd announce whoever will be the damn support acts already.

Ive been there too many times, im glad ill be experiencing a new venue. For a one off experience. This is literally all i have to look forward to for the end of the summer.

I've heard great things about the Roundhouse, never been there though.
How big is it?

not that big, it's round so its hard to say how big it is.

dont spose anybody wants to swap a friday ticket for a saturday ticket do they
please. we will be bff

yeah the briston gig was good especially wiht that slanted floor, i was dead front infront of lee, was incredible, cept for the weird phsycho drugged up dude, and the squashing where some bitch trying pulling me away from the rails..:D

Do you mean you have Friday and want Saturday, or you have Saturday and want Friday?

If you have Saturday and want Friday, I may be able to help, just so long as the best friends forever bit isn't legally binding in any way.

Were they selling any merch? I really need to pick up the DDN deluxe on vinyl and figure getting it at one of the shows is the best way.

Erm... We'll let you know in six weeks time.

I went to the Roundhouse a few months back and it's a pretty cool venue...the whole element of it being round means that you have a good view wherever you are. Also the sound is way better (read: consistant) than Brixton ;) I still have a Friday ticket i'd like to swap for a Thursday one...desperate times people, pls let me know if you can help! :)

The way everyone is trying to offload their Friday tickets (me included), it looks like the place is going to be empty that night.

i have a spare friday ticket. i am going on friday but was hoping to swap the spare for a saturday as im staying a few days and some friends are going the sat too. otherwise ill be left to mooch around, which might not necessarily be a bad thing as long as i dont get asked if i know alex turner, what with being from oop north and all, by some snide cunt who wants to pat me on the head.
sonic youth> londoners. obvs.
