Does anyone know who's going to be supporting at Manchester and London?
I'm wondering if it'll be worth arriving early for the London show as I'll be coming down from up north (bought London tickets by mistake when buying Manchester ones and not been able to offload them!!)

well my gf likes them, suppose that's something. just been looking on futureheads forum to see if it's mentioned and came across this...
"I've only heard one pixies song and I thought it was pretty crap."
grrrr!
"I mean, I like the Pixies, but they're no match for the 'heads"
argghhhh!!!! are they all demented?  do they think the kaiser chiefs created brit-pop?! 
okay, last one...
"I was thinking that The Futureheads might do a tour towards the end of the year but maybe I will buy tickets for the Mnchester Apollo gig if they end up cheap on ebay which I can't see. Pixies are one of the most overrated bands of all time!"

Oh right.
The stuff I've heard from the futureheads seems alright. Though they do get played to death on 6Music, which I listen to a lot through the day.
Sounds like their fans have no knowledge of any music earler than last summer. Which is probably best as the best track they've done was a Kate Bush cover and their whole sound is taken from Gang of Four/XTC! Think I'll check them out, though I imagine I'll end up in the bar after a couple of songs.

The Futureheads are bloody amazing. Don't tar them with the same brush as their fans. They are big Pixies fans and I know they are extremely happy and grateful to be supporting them.
