Nah, In An Aeroplane Over The Sea and The Downward Spiral BACK TO BACK. He was great but you wouldn't expect that from someone who looks like a Star Wars geek.

Anyway, I must go now. Jom is waiting ;)

I'll leave you to it then

Innerdark: Im going down to London for it, gonna be great, i saw that the Scots had been given the shittest day.

Your getting one day because i assume there isnt enough demand for it in Glasgow. The promoters doesnt owe you anyhting he is putting on a gig to make money not to put all your favourite bands on. He thinks it is most profitable this way. Im pissed there no Manchetser date lunlike last year but its the way it goes, London will still be fun.

It didn't stop us getting taste of Chaos last year, or the year before

I'm just annoyed we're getting the most crap day. i was wanting to see saosin and the others i mentioned we ain't getting, but i can't afford tickets and transport, besides, i don;t see how it can be justifiable to have 3 days for both the english ones but only one for glasgow, because arguably, Glasgow would take in as much as we'd have everyone from scotland for the most part who was interested, so i don't think demand would have been an issue (this grates me, we always get like 2 dates on tours for scotland as a whole (see the mue tour as an example) and you get like what, 10, 11, basically, loads more than us, i understand the population thing, but i don't see any justification for only one scottish date

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 04:10 PM

Theres other considerations though like paying the bands for three days in a row, when i assume the Glasgow arena cant fit as many people into it as Earls Court, would bands want to play three days in a row.

Also consider this may be a tester year for next years. The first GIAN was just six or seven bands in London and look how its grown, this being the third GIAN. Next year you might get the real thing. What i understand the most is that yeah you've been given the day that has no good bands on it, so id be disapointed too about that.

innerdark 01-18-2007 04:24 PM

EC is 15000 if i remember right

NIA is 13000 if i remember

SECC is 10000 if i remember

does this help

but i still don't see how we couldn't be given the same amount of dates, it seems a bit amiss to me

EDIT: there's supposed to be plans to build a new arena in the future (not for GIAN obviously) buut it's said that it'll be the 3rd biggest indoor arena in the UK, so that may be used in future,

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 04:27 PM

Well the bands expect paying the same however many people turn up so i guess he might not be able to lose 3000/5000 people paying all that money it costs.

The Jungler 01-18-2007 06:15 PM

Congrats on getting approved on sputnik, lunch.

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 06:39 PM

Concubine 01-18-2007 06:40 PM

Maybe i should start writing reviews

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 06:43 PM

Its pretty fun and i have a lot of spare time.

EDIT: New username, Converge?

Concubine 01-18-2007 06:50 PM

I dunno, English isn't my first language, i probably won't be able to write reviews as good as other people

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 06:55 PM

Concubine 01-18-2007 06:58 PM

Indonesian

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 07:01 PM

cool, there not so hard to do just have a look at some of the best reviewers like Med47, Morrissey and Eliminator etc.. and see how they do it.

Concubine 01-18-2007 07:05 PM

Oh i've noticed them. They are many great reviewers here.

Maybe i'll give it a shot.

And what's up with you and all the reviews lately? :p

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 07:07 PM

Concubine 01-18-2007 07:11 PM

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 07:13 PM

MEN has 19-22 thousand max cap. but they downsized and went to birminghame, which is 13000 tops, so i don't think size is that much of an issue
