Newcastle 5th August

Just saw on Facebook that the Manics are playing Times Square in Newcastle on the 5th August. Tickets go on sale Monday.

Good. Glad its been announced.

Hate knowing this stuff and not being able to put it on here. Weirdly makes me feel guilty!

Oooh very nice, their own headline gig.

Hmm. Now the question is, do I book this or do I wait and see if they start announcing more dates? Do we think they are likely to start announcing London/Cardiff dates beyond this?

It's an outdoor music festival that's held over 2 weeks, so it's possible it might just be a one off and not part of a tour. I hope I'm wrong though!

No other dates are expected as this ties in specifically with the Live From Times Square events.

However, other festival dates are expected and it does not rule out the possibility of a tour later (or even earlier) in the year.

I saw someone on Facebook say they are rumoured to play Leeds Millennium Square. Maybe they might do a few of these summer series gigs?

What's the point of this gig? They doing their usual summer festival stuff, or any chance of an album release summer/autumn?

Must admit can't see why they are playing this as a one off but it makes sense as they will be showcasing new material no doubt, 2 songs at least

I'll eat my hat if this is the biggest gig they do next year. Don't make any special journeys
