northernsoul Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 So Live Nation promoted if it is the Olympic Stadium as they have exclusive rights to gigs there. Latest date I suspect would be first weekend of July, there is an event on the 9th July then Athletics from Mid July til the end of August with the Para and World Championships. Robbie Williams booked the 24th too, so that's out. I can't see them putting it up against Download Festival (their own rock event) so that's out imo. They could of course do a midweek date but think they'll be looking at 2 nights in London & they'll need a weekend for that, so leaves 17th June or 1st July weekends ? Unless they do May, which isn't impossible as both West Ham (who use this ground) and Manchester City (who use the Etihad in Manchester) finish their home seasons mid May but don't think I've ever seen a Stadium gig before the last weekend of May before (Muse I think did that at the Emirates ) so wouldn't have though May was hugely likely but last weekend could work I guess Nice to see no seats anywhere near the pitch too, I know that never really happens in Europe but seeing it in Aus who usually use standing at rock gigs did have me worried but at least common sense has prevailed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd fucking love to be at the London gig if it's at Olympic Stadium since I'm a West Ham fan (Though, if we keep playing the way we are, maybe we won't be at Olympic Stadium for long...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the Slane source? One of the worst venues ever, inconvenient, poor facilities, crap sound. I'm still hoping we might get a couple of indoor gigs in the smaller EU countries, possibly mid week to fill some days up, that would be epic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrk Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 FWIW: there's been faint rumors that they will play a newish festival park in Hämeenlinna, Finland, about an hour north of Helsinki. AC/DC played there last year for about 60k people. Strangely the hotels in the town are fully or nearly booked from June 30th to July 2nd. This is a small non-touristy town so the demand for hotels is usually quite low. Obviously the band will not stay there, but touring and local crew will need a lot of rooms the night before and after the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
