to be honest, if, IF, they are playing arena's, it probably is the best one in london. but it's fucking gigantic. and there is no way ever, even with the top tier curtained off, that they could fill it.

Eughhhhhh I hate the 02. Sound quality isn't bad for such a fucking massive place but its soulless.

Can they not section off half of it like they do at Wembley? Surely Wembley would be better. Ok, not playing arenas would be better but I guess if we have to compromise...

I'm not sure I see the manics supporting, isn't it more likely coincdental? They wouldn't be bigging up a manics mini tour as support.

Manics weren't doing a Scottish date were they, according to the Tweets. And were doing a Welsh one. So hopefully that's that option ruled out.

I'm mainly thinking in terms of size. When its cut in half it'd probably be about right for Manics.

I wish they'd play the Roundhouse again though. Or Hammersmith. Hammersmith is awesome.

sarah, i think we all know we want more brixton dates basically. it's ideal. failing that hammersmith.

Aye, I'd settle for Brixton again but it'd be nice to see them play somewhere different I guess. It's the perfect size for the Manics though. And the sloping floor is awesome for shortarses like moi

Hoping for more than one London date, and some others within travelling distance. Cos I'm feeling a Manics road trip!

Manics like rush I assumed.

Is there any evidence for it being the other way round?
