I can vouch for Cambs Corn Exchange - nice wide stage, was easy to get up front and central when I saw them there on the TIMT tour.

(edit - pics, if links work, not sure how public my Insta is...)

Great pics!

Thank you and to all who's given me suggestions re: the southern venues, I think Cambridge might be winning!

So In September my wife and I are having a baby daughter. She will definitely be only 3/4 weeks old when the tour comes round (we've chosen a middle name of James as a nod)

Just hoping it wont be frowned upon for me to bugger off to either Brighton or Wembley for a song and dance.

If you thought shipping was bad...
They want £60 for the bundle.
They want £40 for shipping.

Ordered.

Also, yellow Amazon vinyl doesn’t ship to US addresses as of now, hope that changes.

Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved pre-ordering the latest Manics album in a variety of formats and editions.

I still find it amazing that I have some continuation with a band I used to listen to in school - not much hasn't changed since then.

It would be perfect if by time of release, Orwellian had been replaced in the tracklisting with Underdogs.

Sigh....i'm very dissapointed. Played it for the wife to see if it's just me and she said 'oh so it's a Midge Ure knock-off'. Its hard to admit it but she's right. Now to go dancing away with tears in my eyes.

I first became aware of the Manics one day in 1991, when I picked up the latest NME and read about the 4 Real incident. Out of curiosity, I just googled to find out the date that happened. It was 15th May 1991, 30 years ago tomorrow

From that point I always loved reading their interviews although I didn't properly become a fan until a couple of years later. But to think that this band that first caught my eye 30 years ago are still getting me excited over new music and tour dates is quite mind-blowing!
