It's cool for Spanish and Portuguese fans, because they rarely play in these countries... Fingers crossed for a festival in France!!!

The Eurockeennes of Belfort would be a good compromise, it's not far from Switzerland.
I wish they'd do a proper European tour one day, not just summer festivals...

To say I'm going is an understatement. Kasabian + Manics + summer = going.

You would go if they played on the moon, or in Hospital on your B'day (hope you are better now!)

Also bear in mind that at that time of year the flights may be expensive as Portugal is a popular holiday destination. I'm going to Portugal on the 18th April with my cousin and we got Ryanair flights for £45 each rtn but as soon as it hit May it went up to about £170 each rtn.

It does look like a great festival though. It's near Cascais which is lovely, plus Lisbon is one of my favourite cities.

You know me... Thanks Dext, it is looking better. I can even hobble without crutches now!

I was thinking that they're probably going to announce some UK dates if they're doing these. I knew there was a reason I didn't book all those Kasabian dates.

I'm am excited, but I suspect I could also die. I apologise in advance for the extreme levels of moaning about the heat you'll have to put up with... We're also in for a day of sightseeing, which means I can almost pass it off to everyone else as a holiday.
