SWEEEEEEETTTTTT! was not expecting to see much of the boys this year and as I already have my tickets for this I'm now super excited in a Lil Han type way, esp as it will mean my Dad seeing THS for the first time!

Oh Man. I wasn't expecting to see them over here before Festival Season. Keith! Howard! US LDN! Are we doing this? We can drink after the THS show and still make the ER before the morning shift comes on.

I never really thought I'd be typing the words 'The Hold Steady @ Wembley Arena' into my calender. The downside.............. tickets are £35

I bought mine. Worked out over 40 quid. Fuck it. They'd better play more than 6 songs mind you!!!

They're playing in Dublin too on the 8th May, down as Very Special Guest.
Again they are booked into the O2 (formally known as the Point). Ticket sales are rather poor so there plenty of spare tickets available.

So, do i pay around £40 to see a support band? cos counting crows are cak! It has to be Brixton cos Wembley arena is rubbish. No choice really is there

I honestly can't decide. Like others I hate the SECC and i'm not exactly a fan of CC. On the other hand it's The Hold Steady.
