Possible Manics gig in Clwb Ifor Bach (Cardiff) ??
A poster with “forever delayed 31/03/22” has popped up outside Clwb. Despite being on this forum for years and years I can’t figure out how to post the picture!
They are around for the bbc music festival for that conversation in the tramshed. Would be huge if true! |

Lifted from the other thread. Check Clwb's twitter and website, nothing for that date so it's all very odd. |
Didn’t see it discussed in another thread. Apologies for creating a new one.
I may or may not be able to say this but I was sent a photo of the posters by someone who knows I love the manics and who may or may not work at Clwb and told me to be quiet about it. So who knows what’s up! |
Are @Manics to play a secret show at @ClwbIforBach during the @BBC6Music Festival?

Well if it's not the Manics I'm suing for stealing our logo :p

The font and general design isn't very 'them' though is it? Without the 6Music cancellation thing, my guess would be that some indie band is releasing an MP3 that day, and that's the name of the song. |
It's just gone legit! https://www.bbc.co.uk/backstage/6mus...ival/thursday/

Beat me to it!

Well feck all chances of getting tickets for this so hope you Welsh folk enjoy it.
Edit: it's an hour set so we all know what that means.... |

Oscar Wilde said that there are only two tragedies in life; not getting tickets to a one off MSP show, and getting tickets (and seeing the setlist).

Oh, that doesn't even mean actual fans will get in. I am still bitter over the Blackwood Miner's Institute gig over a decade ago. And I live 10 minutes from Blackwood. |

Considering it's BBC6, cough something we all equally pay for with our license fee (presumably), the ticket allocation for the rest of the country is a bit stingy. It's not as if Wales is hurting for Manics gigs, it's not even hurting for FREE Manics gigs lately either.

Would be good if this connects into the KYE reissue. Feels a bit reminiscent of the Coal Exchange gig. |
Nice. Worth a punt i guess but i wouldn't have minded the tramshed given the larger capacity.
I've never been under the distinct impression that the manics play a massive amount of gigs in wales anyway though it does seem they are doing more of these more intimate things in the last few years. |
In all seriousness, they will do an obscure KYE song I'd say. Well, obscure as in Year of Purification. James also said they were attempting some new covers in rehearsals.
|
This is pretty bonkers. Clwb is proper small for them. I’ve applied for tickets but not holding out much hope!

Extremely unlikely I'd get lucky on a ticket ballot like this as per usual, but it just has to be on the same day that I've already chosen to see Joan As Police Woman instead of NewDad. I don't go to a lot of gigs every year, and then three I'd like to go to all happen on the same day!
|
Saw on the BBC news story that there are only 75 pairs available to the public through the ballot. At least it will be on BBC 6 Music (hopefully in full).
|
Not going to bother. Hopefully someone films it

Still, have fun whoever can make it. |
If a couple of people got tickets and needed a plus one each, me and a friend would be really grateful. We'll buy you lunch and a milkshake.
|
Oh no, didn't get one of the 5 pairs I was eligible for. No surprises.
|
No tickets for me :( aw well, it’ll be a good one for those that go!
|
Did anyone actually get one?
The Blackwood gig 11 years ago was horrifically "hangers-on", I think this might be the same |
Only half the capacity went to the raffle so I imagine this is 50% guestlist, sigh.....

I didn't get one either. |
75 pairs of tickets raffled for a 300 capacity venue.

This’ll be like the Postcards “working man’s club” gig where every man (and woman) in attendance was working at Sony |

The only gig where nobody shouts for Sleepflower?
