Does anyone know if any shows in academy's have been upgraded? because the Birmingham show was sold out, but it's not anymore, and i'm pretty sure they've been moved from academy 2 to the main academy

ULU show was brilliant. And Barfly had a barrier. I wouldn't change anything.

ULU was still fucking epic dont get me wrong.

Nah i saw Less Than Jake there, got a big barrier for the 200 capacity it holds.
I think everything turned out perfect.

First time i've ever wanted a gig to be upgraded. I saw Gaslight at Roadhouse so can deal with seeing them in a big venue, as long as I get to see them (which is looking unlikely.)

i got a phone the other day from ticketweb to tell me that the bristol gig has been upgraded aswell!

It was upgraded and I still missed out on tickets? I kept hearing Old White Lincoln on the radio all through December and always missed who it was by so I googled the lyrics the other day and downloaded the album (legally!). Not even Scarlet Mist or ebay can help me Crying or Very sad

My mate couldn't get tickets either...which was good news for me because he's now going to drive to the Nottingham show

The ULU gig was definately the best by far. Mainly because of its size and also the fact that the front of the crowd was the front of the satge with no barriers inbetween!

Been lucky enough to be at the front of both of their shows I've been to and got some amazing photos of the guys. Nothing beats a small venue.

If anyones interested, Birmingham has tickets available again, just bought 2 this morning. Must've had some returned or something.

Nah, Manchester is a bridge too far financially. Think I'm gonna see the King Blues in Brum on the 8th, and keep it cheap...you only need a Big issue to get in. The December Gaslight tour cost loads and I was skint till Jan payday. If I'd had the disposable income when tickets went on sale I'd have probs done Manchester and mebbe London or Bristol...but I'm gonna take Nikita and the Munchkin to Butlins in early spring so I'll save and await the next tour by a band..tho I have to say I think it's gonna be a while before I see another live band this good. I may even pull out all the stops and try to wangle something for one of the March dates...but thats all dependent on what ackers I can mobilise at the time.

Oh yeah, gig kicks off at 7, you going for a pint before??? Which pub???

Shame about Manchester, I think I had one of the last few tickets...Will probably be in Scruffy's in Brum about 7 ish so if you fancy a beer I'll see you in there...if I can't get a standing London ticket I'll be at the King Blues show...Am also doing the Nottingham show in March
