Cannot articulate enough how excited I am for this - waited best part of a decade patiently.

Will the presale be sent by mailing list the same way US dates have been?

So excited. I have to go. Have to.

I would think if you went to their website it would show the link to click on.. Also Q2 was having a pre-sale.

Got my tickets - so excited I could explode

[davjunk]

just got a ticket too £22.75 with booking fee and delivered

I just hope they dont do a closer gig to me now, at least i dont have to travel to the usa to see them like i did last time!

[Tattooed Angels]

yeah for you both..Excited for you guys. It has been along long time since the band played Europe..

Do not think will go to this one. The people who I know in UK can not make the show due to their work schedules. That was the main reason to go now( UK).. Waiting to see where else they might play.

Besides there is something else in July I want to go to. It is that or OLP.. Will see..

[davjunk]

so are there only 2 of us going to the garage gig? its a bit quiet on this thread!!!

[Sezlouise]

I'm really hoping they do a gig closer to home for me somewhere like Manchester for example... I'm hoping they release some more dates!

[saman]

so apparently this show's been moved to another location, at O2 Academy Islington, 16 Parkfield Street, Islington, London, according to ticketmaster

to our UK friends...The July 2nd show sold out so quickly that we are trying to find a bigger venue to move to. keep you posted!!!

Our UK show is moving to Islington Academy!!!! See u there!!!


Bigger venue will be good - might mean they play more songs going by looking at setlists of the ones they've done so far

I want to see Starseed!

That's great for the band they were able to sell out. Should be a hopeful sign for more gigs in different cities. I'll be there with 5 other ex-pat Canadians. Can't wait!

Another date added for the third: same venue. Surprised there's been no mention of them playing Canada day on the Sunday!

[ArkaneOne]

Finally managed to sort out travel and a hotel so I can go on the 3rd - It'll be like a dream come true

Just wondering about the setlist- obviously they're touring Curve, so it's going to follow in line of the previous Urban Grind shows (6 or so Curve songs, 8 or so non-Curve). However, what are the chances they'll go out, and really bring out a few more of the heavy hitters (In Repair & Naveed had limited appearances) seen as though they rarely come to the UK? Either way, I can't wait!

[matt292]

I'm getting really excited about this now! Been waiting almost 10 years. I hope, really really really really hope, they do Starseed. Would make my decade.

[Syncopy]

Am ridiculously excited now about these gigs. Will finally finally see OLP live. As I'm coming down from near Manchester, I'm only doing the Monday night gig, would have done the Tuesday one too if I hadn't booked and sorted everything out around the Monday night one. But will also go to Trafalgar Square on Sunday night too. Who's going to see them there?

Here is the setlist:

Best gig I've ever been to.

10 years I've waited for this. Lived up to my hopes and expectations. Stunning.

Each member of the band was on top form. Really hope they enjoyed it as much as the crowd did.

My ears are still ringing.

I was also at both Canada Day in Trafalgar Sq and the July 2nd show. Both were fantastic! Echoing Matt above, the guys sounded great. The Canada Day show had a festival feel to it as there were a lot of people there, but the crowd was really into it singing along. The O2 Academy show was the complete opposite, really intimate. My only disappointment was the lack of Spiritual Machines played. I'm glad we got In Repair though. The new stuff sounds great especially, in my opinion, Fire In The Henhouse. That absolutely rocks live! In addition to the set list above they also played the acoustic version of Thief. Can't wait til they come back to the UK, hopefully not as long a wait.
