Literally the least punk venue going :rage:

mmm was gonna say ā€œcould be an academy venueā€ then remembered they played Kentish Town forum already

The fact they’re doing Ally Pally seems nuts. That’s, what, 10k tickets?

If full capacity. Also do gigs at ā€˜medium capacity’ - 2.5K

two sold out nights at the barras, yas!

Ally Pally 80% sold out already. That is actually mental, isnt it? Is it definitely the 10k capacity they are playing?

Are they going to have to play Knebworth next year?

Weirdly the Ally Pally website has Embrace playing there on the same night, which must mean Idles are in another section? Embrace and Idles fans hanging out together, lovely.

Just seen 8500 tickets sold so far so must be the big room.

I just can’t comprehend that they’re this big, somehow.

They seem like nice guys so I’m pleased for them. Saw them at end of the road last year and it felt like a genuine event.
Also nice to see how madly over enthusiastic my son (sixteen y.o) and his mates are for them - it’s relatively easy to be snide about their lyrics, but they are clearly hitting a lot of chords with people.
Good luck to ā€˜em

Embrace are playing the newly re-opened theatre inside the Palace (which is a very cool space).

I used to love Embrace when I was younger and more silly and I agreed to go to see them again with an old mate for old time’s sake. I know it will be terrible but Ally Pally is ten mins from my flat so I thought why not…

And then they announced Idles on the same night at the same place… I love Idles, seen them 5 times in the last couple of years. I am so sick about this turn of events, esp as I know I have no one else to blame but myself…

Get right up front with your mate then sneak off to the bar/toilet during Embrace’s opener and tell your mate you couldn’t squish your way back in through the crowd. Go enjoy Idles. Leave halfway through Rottweiler. Re-emerge at the Embrace gig halfway through All You Good Good People (I’m guessing). Meet up with your mate, say something about how you enjoyed that version of Come Back To What You Know. Easy.
