Arctic Monkeys - Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino (May 11, 2018) Album • Page 4

A very painless presale, got 2 tickets for the Queens show. Thanks @ComedownMachine for that code!

 

I can't tell if floor tickets aren't available during this presale or if they really sold out in like 4 minutes

 

I opted for the bowl at FH (Section 202) to save a little $ and not worry about being pushed around in the pit

 

That was seriously the least stressful experience I've had all year with tickets. Got 2 GA floor tickets immediately!

 

Wonder what the opener situation will be like

 

AM
Humbug
FWN
WPSIATWIN
SIAS

 

Really interested to hear what their new stuff would sound like, especially considering the state of "rock" rn

 

WPSTWIN is pretty easily my favorite of theirs. tight songwriting, fitting production, just a great set of songs and the four songs from the WTFAAM are also great

Favorite Worst Nightmare
Humbug
AM

I’m always interested about rankings. I feel like a lot of it is influenced by age or maybe more specifically which records they were putting out when you first heard them. Their first 2 records were cornerstones for me when they each were released, the latter 3 less so. I have found I enjoy all 5 of their records though, first 2 I just think are far and away their best.

 

Funny enough. Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What’s I’m Not is going to be Vinyl Me, Please’s ROTM for April.

 

damn, might subby for it then

 

I got tickets to see them in LA and I am unbelievably hyped that it’s the first show back

 

When are we finally gonna rise up and burn ticketmaster to the ground?

Tickets should not go up 30 fucking bucks from the initial price they show you

 

Thank god my show was through ticketfly. $8 service fee

 

Extremely jealous. I'm waffling on whether to get floor seats for Pittsburgh and it goes from 60something to 90something lol. I want to scream.

 

My show was through AXS, I think the service fee was $14.

Still bullshit, but it's better than the service fee on my Childish Gambino tickets last week, I think that was like $35.

 

Yea service fees are the absolute worst

 

The restaurant I’m at has played Snap Out Of It and Stop The World I Wanna Get Off With You. Nice.

 

Miraculously got mine too! Flying across the country for this... it's sort of a given when I've waited 4-5 years for my favorite band to come back.

 

Agree with everything here.

 

Got floor seats for Boston, so pumped.

Also, I think they might have the hardest-to-rank discography of modern bands. It's really tight.

 

Random thought, but Alex Turner's six-song "Submarine" EP is so beautiful. It's been my go-to "right before bed" listen for a while now. The songwriting is just so layered and poetic. Like conceptually every song is brilliant but it also has so many little lines and phrases that are straight-up genius.

"Stretching out the neck on your evening, trying to even out some deficit." Like who else writes like that? That guy doesn't get enough credit as one of today's best songwriters.

 

really like how the solo and AM versions of piledriver waltz compare
