On scarletmist there are always face value tickets. Check in a few days.

I think September is before his usual sick season, I'd be more worried about Nov-Feb! Ditching the fags might help, mind.

Shhh... Don't destroy my little faith in possible winter gigs...

But if they are rescheduled you can pick up returned ticks! I was so lucky 2010, James' voice lasted just until the end of the Bristol gig, the next day he was done for. I knew I'd do that to him, mind!

I'm surprised there's not a Cardiff date, my only guess is that they're holding out until next year to do the Arena possibly. The main smallish capacity venue in Cardiff I can think of is the University Great Hall, which although amazingly convenient for me, isn't the best place to see a gig (it's kind of like a massive school gym).

Yes, I was hoping for Cardiff, but maybe Wire can't travel that far? I'm hoping for Welsh gigs on the proper tour we've been promised for the next album, Cardiff and Llandudno would be lush!

James gets ill (or at least complains about sore throats etc) on every tour, regardless of when it is.

Hope they announce another tour and come to Leeds. Couldn't afford a ticket for the Manchester gig but my mate is off Plus it'll save the expense of getting a train/coach over.

Yes, if it's not winter it's air cons/planes (and too many fags, possibly!). He's had chronic sore throat for about 15 years now.

Won't miss the Cardiff gig next tour, and maybe one or two more

Or the largest county in England (Yorkshire)?

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they will add more dates, or do a more extensive tour later in the year or early next year.

We've got Manchester, which I know isn't ideal for everyone, but at least it's something. On the May 2011 tour they only did Wolves, Llandudno and Cardiff, so 'ignored' most of the country, but on the PFAYM tour less than a year before that they did EVERYWHERE. Things always balance out. I would definitely think a bigger tour is to come in April to match the louder album.

Aye, it's a 5 date tour on the mainland, lots of places being 'missed'. The answer as to why they're not doing certain areas is because they don't feel like it I guess.

[Nobody]

well I expect this tour is only to coincide with the album launch, there will probably be another in winter

[franny]

A christmas Cardiff show would be a good idea.
