Can't wait for this! Praying their won't be another ticket shambles this time

I wonder what we can expect from these gigs? Will they do the FFS album live and then a second set with some Sparks songs and some Franz Ferdinand songs? Will it all be mixed up? Will there be projections etc? So many questions, all to be answered a a birthday treat for me...almost :)

They have recorded at least 6 new songs together,
I know the Sparks songs "Too many bridges to jump off of" and
"Piss Off" were high energy demos before and I think they
have made their way in new versions on the new album...
But my guess is all of the album will have new material...

Trying to get a glasgow ticket without success. Links to Getmein a company owned by ticketmaster for 3 times face value. Disgusting

they want 50 quid for a 22.50 ticket, a 9 quid processing fee and 11 quid delivery

I knew I recognized the name, heard them on 6music. Not bad...I have never known R&R to have support acts since I started coming to Sparks gigs (2008) I would imagine FF usually do.

That's quite catchy.
Except the cartoon figures aren't doing the skeleton dance, they're at a Les Mills bodyvive class!

Has anyone had tickets delivered yet for the Troxy?

Ones for the Albert Hall in Manchester arrived almost immediately after booking.
