As I've said on a previous thread Lat night as the O2 was great!

On a slightly different note I just wanted comment about a thought I had.

The gig wasn't cheep last night and as a man of 30 I felt like one of the youngest. I certainly didn't feel I could afford the 2001 tour when I was 21.

I'm guessing the tax bills for the gang are all now paid and it'd be nice to see them do a tour that the under 25's could afford.

Being a Glam fans since Suede, Placebo etc appears and having seen the circuit there are no end of young eyelinered fans who are well versed in the Roxy but wouldn't go near the arena circuit, esp at that price and with no standing tickets.

Playing a venue like the Kentish Town Forum or Koko would be a good balance and if advertised in the right circles could attract a new generation of fans as well as giving the hardcore a chance to see the band in a more intimate venue.

Based on inside info or a pessimistic nature?

I know they did Bogusman, I was leaning on the stage in front of The Emperor Himself. 'Don't hold your breath' as in seeing them again! Geddit?

My eyes are bulging, my face is turning purple and I am starting to feel dizzy. I must get some more air soon

C'mon Stabbs, tell us what you know - it won't go any further!

Regardless of rumour and innuendo, I'd still really like to see Roxy play some more intimate venues.

It'd be nice if they were imaginative and considered doing something special. Arena's/Festivals are not the most fitting venues for their music

Maybe that's why the Glasgow shows seem to have gone down so well. 2 nights in a proper 3,000 seater venue built to be a concert hall rather than 1 night in a 10,000 shed that is SECC hall 4. Oh for the dear old Glasgow Apollo!!!!!
