I hope they'll really enjoy themselves and that Brian realises that, excepting Elsie, his stuff never sounds as great as it does the Gaslighty Anthem way.

Based on Bands In Town they are playing Friday 6/1 but not 100% that's accurate

Either way I'm there and praying Jack White and Japandroids are the same day

I've just realised that 1959 was 59 years ago. The perfect year for a '59 Sound anniversary tour!

As far as I'm concerned, any year is a great year for a '59 Sound anniversary tour!!!

Don't know if the below is correct - but it does make sense

As posted in inforoo - Gaslight is on Saturday with s headliners

As posted in reddit - Gaslight is Saturday, with the rest of the guitar bands that would make sense

Friday June 1st:
Jack White. Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Post Malone.


Damian 'Jr. Gong’ Marley. The Glitch Mob. Maggie Roggers. LANY. 6lack . Tash Sultana. DRAM. Kali Uchis Third Eye Blind. Alvvays. Jay Electronica. Belly. Two Feet. Pond. Cuco. Westside Gunn & Conway. The Spencer Lee Band. Lou The Humans. (Possible DJ Set)

Saturday June 2nd 2018:

Travis Scott. Halsey. (Unrevealed Act) . Silk City (Diplo + Mark Ronson) The Gaslight Anthem. Cut Copy. Galantis. Manchester Orchestra. 2 Chainz. Japandroids. Margo Price. Kelela. The Menzingers. Wolf Alice. Moses Sumney. The Struts. Quinn XCII Knox Fortune. A$AP Twelvyy . Alice Merton. Lophiile. The Regrettes.

Sunday June 3rd 2018:

Eminem. N.E.R.D. Khalid. Chvrches. Dirty Projectors. Lil Uzi Vert. Brockhampton. Sylvan Esso. Aminé. Russ. Goldlink. Flight Facilities. Vic Mensa. Aurora. Middle Kids. Loyle Carner. Billie Eilish Sir Sly. Mikky Ekko. Slaves. Berhana. Confidence Man. (Another DJ act)

Until it shows up on the event web site I'm taking it with a grain of salt. Lots of people are really good with Photoshop unfortunately. However, if this is accurate I'll be glad since Menzingers and Japandroids are the same day.

Saturday really would be ideal. I wish they played the same day as Yeah Yeah Yeahs or Eminem, but Japandroids would be awesome to see again.

Saturday is official.

With Menzingers, Japandroids and MO!!! I am really worried they will not get the closing spot on the Honda stage.

Any more dates announced on this??

I've never done Gov Ball proper (only the After Dark shows), so I'm unfamiliar with the stages. Do you all think they will be on a smaller stage, different from the headliner?
Gosh, I hope that's the case.

5/27 DC
6/2 Gov Ball
7/20 London
7/23 Dublin
7/24 Glasgow
7/25 Manchester UK
7/27 Tilburg NL
7/28 Cologne
8/10 Toronto
8/11 Chicago

Gonna assume NJ isn't listed "yet" because of Gov Ball...

What's the policy there? A show within a certain date/distance to a festival can't be announced until a specific date passes? I assume if a NJ show is to happen, it will be announced before 6/2?

Not sure. Assume they are different for every festival and even certain bands based on relevance within festivals.

On the Facebookpost they mentioned a fan presale tomorrow, but does anyone have a link for that? Nothing on their website.

I damn well hope that's why.

Can't find anything about a pre-sale yet, no idea who this will be with!

All dates and presale ticket links are now included in the first thread

Having clicked on the links, the Manchester and London presales appear to start at 10am, not midday.

Exactly the same happened to me

I'm still in the queue...not sure if that's a good thing or not...
