Well it's not like we have anything to discuss haha. I am sure the moment concrete info starts to build up people will post.

Any rumors so far? Time is running out fast for the summer festivals...

It would be odd if they didn't play any festivals, even if they album isn't out yet. Maybe they're doing stadiums instead? Ian sounded very vague about a tour, but maybe they don't consider it a proper tour if it's just a couple of dates? I haven't heard anything though.

I bloody wish I had some news. But I think the latest instagram posts were very clear - Serge is working. I don't think there is anything else happening at this point.

Ah well. I guess we won't see them until September then.

I guess we won't see them until September then. Why September?

I guess we won't see them until September then. Why September? Would they really do warm ups in June when they have virtually no festivals? I doubt it. (Then again, they might do America/Australia in the summer, but I doubt it.)

Would they really do warm ups in June when they have virtually no festivals? But why would they in September? If the album is not finished they might not tour at all this year, we don't know anything at the moment. And anyway, non-festival gigs are not necessarily warm ups. They could tour in June regardless of anything. Or not.

They could tour in June regardless of anything. Or not. I suppose you are right. September was purely from comparing this album cycle to Velciraptor's, I think that if Serge is writing lyrics now, then Instruments are probably done, Tom is singing the album these days, finish recording in April, Master it in May, then push it out in August/September and start the tour. But as you said, the Album could be out in 2017, which would be a historically long time for recording it.

A bit of me also says September will be the time that they release the album. Will be a really good time for that in my honest opinion, and hoping that no more Aitor Thorup. Not on the album theme. Not on the tour theme. Please. It all looks similar, recycled material from time to time. Need to see something really euphoric and captivating.
And we all can rest assured that Serge's white tees with one word texts will be gone.

I think Tom has been subdued this tour in general to be honest, he likes to stand by the mic stand way to often than the previous tour! Yes, he has been 'the quiet one' during the last tour while Serge was bouncing about all over the place - which it not a bad thing, I love him going all wild, jumping and screaming. But I guess there is a natural balance between them and more active Serge means quieter Tom. But I have to say I saw them twice during this May mini-tour and things were back like the used to. I mean Serge hasn't gone back to his really quiet self, singing eyes closed and not talking like in 2004, but Tom is the loud frontman again - at least that's my impression. He navigated that very messy Stevie cockup in Swindon so beautifully and with so much confidence, and he was definitely the more central figure during the Kind Power gig too.

I actually think that it was age starting to take its toll on Tom which made him more subdued this tour, leading Serge to pick it up. Great to hear that he was more dynamic in the May tour, we will see how he is next tour.

Yes, I know it's VERY early, but that doesn't mean we can't speculate about the tour of Album 6, which will start next June probably. So, which songs from 48:13 will be played regularly next tour, and which will be dropped? Also, here is a controversial prediction: At least one of StR/Empire/Vlad will be dropped regularly from the setlists, like Where did all the love go has been this tour. I'm a little over Empire fwiw LSF - Club Foot - Processed Beats Shoot the Runner Fire - Underdog - Vlad - Fast Fuse Days are Forgotten - Rewired Bumblebeee - Stevie - eez-eh New album x 5 That's 17/18 and that was tough to do
