A friend of mine said a few weeks back that he'd heard from a mutual friend that it'll be Cardiff Castle. Even if he's just showing off an educated guess, he'll probably be right.

In a castle means it's going to be a smaller show than usual, no?

Might just be within the grounds of one.

If it's just on the grounds of a Castle, that just makes me think something like Cooper's Field in Cardiff, the grounds of the castle in the city centre. The spectacle of the band playing The Holy Bible to a crowd that size would be fun though.
However, inside an actual castle, different thing entirely. Given the dates happening this month are more intimate affairs, they might have somewhere else in mind. I'll inevitably try and get tickets when it happens either way, although part of me fears a bunch of plastic taffs who haven't fully grasped what the gig will actually be, yelling out for stuff like "You Stole The Sun From My Heart" for the first hour of the gig (Which happens at Manics gigs in Cardiff Arena). It's really got to me the last few times they've played Cardiff.

Surely it will be cardiff, where else have bands actually played? Maybe Caerphilly? The northern castles are too small to fit crowds in really.

Caerphilly castle would be great. It's a lovely castle, I have a lot of memories there.

The suspense is killing me!! It'd be good for it be be in a picturesque castle in the middle of nowhere but that would mean expense, awkwardness and stress, thus I really want it to be at Cardiff. This would be too obvious a choice too be true sadly

I can't see The Holy Bible working all that well outdoors on a long summer day.
If it's the first half of the show, it would be all in daylight. |
