Eep! No Bristol or Oxford, I guess that's Sarah and I on a road trip! Cheers for the pre-sale link MT!

And I've already ordered Manchester tickets for me and MrsMT! Huzzah!

I'd love to see them in their hometown, the atmosphere must be incredible! But by October I'll be a penniless student, anything north of Birmingham would be pushing it!

w00t! De Montfort. Sorted.

No Brum?!

WTF?

Cardiff it us for us.. But it doesn't appear to be in the pre-sale... i r confoose.

Wolverhampton too far?

Remember they missed out Manchester in '05, what kind of a crime was that! I had to go to Liverpool!

No Scotland?

Raging!

Gateshead's practically in Scotland, isn't it? Mind you, everywhere's north from where I'm sitting, apart from Hastings.

It's still two hours from the border and a major trip away!

And on a weeknight, that ain't really possible for me...

Gutted.

oh no, i know that pain!
Well, i'm still hoping they announce a Bristol date!
They've got to have Scottish dates, surely!!!!

Four tickets for me and the family.

Pah, we will be in New York!

Have to make do with memories of the RFH! Have fun if you're going!

I can't see Cardiff on pre-sale either, or on any site as available to buy on Thursday. Hmmm... Truro also missing from pre-sale...

You know I don't think Elbow have ever played in Aberdeen.

To continue the whole 'Hall' theme, they could play the Music Hall...! It's an amazing venue.

Really gutted, me.

You not going to see them at Inverary Castle Calum?

Jeez, the feckin' pre-sale for The Roundhouse on Saturday has sold out-arghhh!

That was quick! If the Sunday sells out too it'll have to be Pompey... Ted, are you going?

Sage gig will be mint.

I am indeed seeing them at Connect, but still, favourite band an' all, I try and see 'em on every tour!
