The 1975 - Being Funny in a Foreign Language (Oct 14, 2022) Album • Page 145

Bodes well for a San Diego date. Would prefer that than traveling to to AZ or something.

 

I have no idea what their next move in North America is. They easily due arenas in major cities but I think they play 5-8k capacity places in smaller cities. They could theoretically due an amphitheater run but they'd need strong support.

 

They could do a show at a fucking bowling alley, and I'd be there with bells on.

 

they’re playing an arena in Kansas City which is typically considered a B market for most artists

 

Excited for the Portland show tonight! Didn’t even realize it was today until I got the Ticketmaster email stating tickets were ready in the app. Thought it was like a week away LOL.

Seriously can’t contain my excitement today. I’m so stoked!!

 

Tonight snuck up on me too, I haven't even been able to listen to the album this week to prepare or get excited.

 

And the funny thing is that they're playing a 5k cap venue here in Chicago next week when they have played the United Center.

 

As for US tour dates next year - they're very likely hitting Lollapalooza so expect it all to be organized around summer festival dates.

 

I think that's a significant underplay though.

 

Awesome how About You is the 2nd most listened to song on the album

 

Wonder if we get a video now

 

this album's doing a lot better than Notes already from a streaming POV but nowhere near A Brief Inquiry.

 

I can see About You taking off a La “Somebody Else” here in the USA

 

Yeah I think About You has to be made into a video at some point

 

Not his fault he’s in a band with giants. Lol.

 

i mean a brief inquiry has 3 years of streams going for it and while love it if we made it, give yourself a try, and tootime werent their overall biggest singles they were all prettttty high on the charts (compared to some of their other singles anyway) so im not surprised there. and notes came out during the absolute worst period of all time to put out a record so....not having a tour behind it really killed that album's momentum unfortunately otherwise it would've been received much, much better i'll stand by that forever.

 

Just got around to reading the lyrics for looking for somebody to loveand was not expecting that lyrical contest, based on the music that the song has

 

Portland show was incredible! Top-notch performance. Will post further thoughts later.

 

So Evan mentioned this last night at IIOI - apparently they’ve been playing IIOI before the set?

 

I only remember hearing a Radiohead song before their set but I was pretty buzzed

 

They were playing Beabadoobee, Taylor Swift and Caroline Polachek at my date

 

Didn’t hear any IIOI in Seattle. Great set, Matty got mad at people throwing shit on stage which was nice to see tbh.

 

Was aware of bea, Wolf Alice, Bleachers at the least (DC date)
