Elbow Announce Autumn UK Tour

Dublin it is!

Ticketmaster have more standing tickets for the Saturday Roundhouse gig on sale.

Just noticed Roundhouse site has seated tickets. Pregnant wife is happy. :-)

Mmm, looks like it's going to be Manchester... Well, proper order I guess. Although that won't stop me from enjoying the Dublin gig!

Me too!!

Should be a blast, Chris! I always love 'end of tour' sort of gigs. The bands are usually really up for it then (I mean musically speaking, of course... )

It's a pity it's not Vicar St again as it's such a lovely venue, no pushing or shoving - plus the band are close to the audience, ah well their association with Aiken must be coming to an end after Electric Picnic..

Ah, Vicar Street was fab! Had a bit of a Guy Garvey moment there which I will cherish forever...

Ooh, do tell! Unless of course you are sworn to secrecy...

Ha, ha, hardly, as there were a multitude of witnesses! Ok, this may not seem very exciting, but it certainly made my night: -you know the bit in One Day where he sings: 'If you think I wink, I did...' ? Well, I gave him a wink and he leaned over towards me and gave me a great big wink and then another! Wahey!!!! It's even on YouTube, but although you can see the winks, you can't actually see me...
Yes, yes, I know, it's not exactly front page news but I was dead chuffed about it!

Heh, nice one. You got the YouTube link to da wink?

Erm, well I do, but surely this is not remotely interesting to anyone but me?

Ok then... (hope this works now...)

1.52 and 1.59 !

Heh... when you know what's going on, that's great!

Yep, it was good fun, or 'craic' as they say here...!

Aw, how cool is that?!

Glad you got to have a Guy moment.

Oh Jones, that's a lovely memory! I'd be thrilled to bits as well - go girl!

I must have been standing beside you as I was in front of Guy for the whole set!!

Thanks all for sharing my excitement! No one else seems to understand...

And Chris, I was directly in front of Mark, so I'm not sure how nearby you were?

^^ I was in front of guy for the whole set, same as last time they played Vicar St (when Guy had the walking stick) - great venue and lovely people..

Yep, it's great when you're able to bag your 'usual' spot, isn't it?
