Not to be nitpicky but I'm pretty sure the gig's happening in 2019 not 2018

Wish I could go but trying to cut down completely on travelling for gigs, it's becoming too expensive for me.

I'd happily have gone again for this but not to be.. Think it makes logistical sense for em to do Glastonbury too, suspect Friday more likely than Sunday maybe.. It's about the right time for em, they average one every five years..

Let’s hope One Direction don’t announce their comeback to play the stadium on the same day again
To be fair, Cardiff handled both gigs great that day. We stayed in Newport so hung back for a pint and got last train back. Couldn't believe how straightforward it was.

Quite surprised they're doing the castle again. With them moving Everything Must Go over to Swansea I wondered if they'd move This Is My Truth somewhere else again. Unless Swansea was more of a plan b? I dunno. Cardiff always makes sense anyway. Caerphilly Castle could've had potential too, but transport and hotels could've been an issue.

It'd be great for them do somewhere really Welsh one day. Not Cardiff! But one of those beach gigs could've been special.

As much as I love Cardiff I would like to see them somewhere different, but quite limited for viable options for a gig of that size in South Wales. Decent sized park in Pontypridd that might do, but bit buggered for transport and hotels.

I was only joking The only time I really noticed all the One Direction fans was when I went in search of food in the afternoon. We always stay at the in-laws' for gigs in or around Cardiff, so didn't need to worry about hotels either.

I remember speaking to a dad sat next to me on the train home who had took his kids to see One Direction, and to make matters worse, he was going to the following night as well! I wished him luck as I got off at my stop.

I'm glad it's the castle and not a stadium.

Keep an eye on twickets as well - tickets often come up closer to the time!
