2023 Live Shows

[𝒥𝑅𝒮𝒵]

Pretty rough for Polish fans... last year it was a last second Covid cancellation. This year the entire festival cancels a week before the date.

Hope they can figure out a show for you peeps sometime soon

Hope so, especially somewhere closer to my home city of Szczecin. 

Also... The represent of Universal Music Poland told me that the album preorders will hit the last week, but nothing here... 
So yeah...

That's a fair point. But in that case, I can't see which new track it might be. Given the album title, cover, and the titles of each individual song, I can't see which might fit that bill. Perhaps the Harvest Mix of TDTYF puts that spin on it, and they will bring it back to the set?

I hope so, The Darkness didn't had enough time to shine in the live envirement

Could be a reinvention of visuals for one of the new songs or an older song too tbf

Catch Me I'm Falling and Got Glint had totally different visuals before we got the tunnel and fabric dancers during the 2019 arena tour

I would say EML Ritual, as if they brought back Saturate, they could bring that back too (both got removed after 2019). But I quite like the EML visuals, I wouldn't see them replacing them. Maybe Hoops visuals? Or something from We Are The Night?

Also, isn't it about time for another Under The Influence Acid?! How long have we had this one? I feel like it's been long enough for them to swap it out. Maybe they quite like the one that's been in use. I initially didn't like it much, but it's grown on me. The mashup with It Doesn't Matter is pretty wonderful.

HOOPS / EML RITUAL / FREE YOURSELF SUPREMACY

I would LOVE to see that return, especially with new-er visuals, then again Dreaming's visuals are the same age as the EML Ritual visuals...as is the current Under The Influence acid (all 2015)

I'm wondering if we're due for some type of tour announcement. A little more than 2 weeks from the new album and there isn't exactly a big rollout for the FTBF era, apart from the UK arena run and Corona Capital. I don't expect them to play through the holidays (December), but I just can't see them putting the show on ice until next spring/summer festival season, right... Or will they?

[shakermaker]

I dunno. having being doing festivals for two summers and the short run of shows in 2021 I could see the UK run capping it all off.

but I hope I'm wrong. 

[Bosco]

A new album and new book seems like a prime time to get back on tour, but you could totally be correct for various reasons.

I'm still going to assume there is more in the near future, I'm just not confident how soon that will be.

Looks like a Down Under announcement coming soon!

Looks like we can start a Live 2024 thread

I'd be surprised to see a third year of shows in Europe, Australia makes a lot of sense if they continue touring in 2024. Maybe some shows in Asia as well? Iirc after the 2019 shows there were talks about shows in Japan, which then were derailed due to the fucking plague, so my bet is that they'll also play there. And maybe Tom even teased some North American concerts in that recent radio interview.
Good to see they're still not tired of touring.

Anyone going to any of the U.K./Ireland shows I'd love to say hi before or after the show! Get some good old fashioned forum meet ups going!

Watched a lot of recordings of gigs this year - weak setlist, IMHO.
Last year, on the contrary, they just showed that they are ready to introduce new ideas and new sounds (100 points for BRB as a starter and 200 points for SG/Swoon section).

I would agree, sadly thought this years was weaker than 2021 and 2022.

Looking forward to 2024 nonetheless. Got my glasto tickets earlier today and so hopefully they'll be back gracing the Other Stage again!

The Light and Sound Industrial magazine has a long article about this tour's production:

Haven't read it yet, but I'm sure it's an interesting read a bit about how the live shows come together and the crew that makes them possible

Looks like they might be the surprise guest tomorrow at that charity event on their story? They have been advertising it for weeks



Sadly out of town or i'd be there

it's probably the Kayos Bros

I think it's actually the Turbo Nutters.
