Thinking of some of the songs serge could sing and in such small venues makes me π im just a bit puzzled about him singing the stronger tom lead ones. I can see quite a few of them working, but then I try to picture something like Fast Fuse and I can't quite hear it. But it would be interesting for sure.

I wonder if they are using this tour to audition a new singer. That'd be a curveball to say the least.

If they did want to try out some singers i think they would defo have to be upfront about that....imagine rocking up to a gig thinking you were getting one singer then strangers start singing like what?! π The tickets would have to be so cheap π¬

Of course the articles are all "new guitarist??" as if he hasn't been in the band for over 8 years. I do hope Ben and Gary are involved as well, but I don't see why they wouldn't be.

Huh yeah i guess i was just going by the blurry photo π srsly between that and people wondering who could sing like serge hasnt been there all along. (The serge fanboys who would normally climb over your head are being very quiet π)

Being away from anything internet lately and I just saw this. I would be less surprised if a polar bear could ring my bell dressed as a pokemon,asking for directions, at this point. Didn't expect anything coming in 2021...I do liked the blurry black and white pic btw,it reminded me of photoshoots from bands like UNKLE or Massive Attack and I kind of wait a lot of experimentation in whatever they have in mind to do.

I was quite confused initially but excited that the rest of the band is together, and want to make music together. I think it's absolutely right not to involve Tom at this stage - whether it's the band's or even Tom's own decision. It's too soon for so many reasons like many people mentioned before me. Lots of people mention 'second chances' and I think not changing the band's name (thanks god!) and not recruiting a new singer leave lots of doors open for Tom, whenever (and if) the band and Tom himself are ready in several years time. What Tom has done was absolutely horrible, and no one knows how it affected his bandmates and if they are even considering a second chance. Everyone needs some time to deal with it and even discuss it calmly, the memories are too raw and painful for us - and I can't even imagine the effect on the people close to him.
In the other news, in a true Kasabian style, there has been no info or link sent about the presale. I'll be trying for Brixton and possibly Southhampton+Bristol. Who else is trying? Good luck!

First pre-sale anxiety in over 18 months.
Can't say I've missed this feeling.. π€£π€£

Leeds, Nottingham and Sheffield sorted.
Never had an easier pre sale. Either people aren't sure about Covid gigs, or people aren't sure about post Tom Kasabian...π€·ββοΈ

Ticket for Brixton bought. Never been this easy to get a ticket. π
I havenβt been vaccinated and have no idea if I can travel to UK in November, but letβs see.

Just one Brixton gig for me, though I'd love to give one of the smaller venues a go if I was up to travelling/Norwich didn't have such a shit disabled access platform thing.
Presale sold out now, I see. Assuming that includes the extra date each for Brixton and Birmingham.

I got tickets to Southampton and really hoping that there will be a 2nd Brixton date,i was gutted when i saw it was the 2nd Nov but theres no way i'm giving up those Biffy ticket's π.I am also glad the price's are lower and i think all these 'I'm not going because Tom isn't there' will buy a ticket and these gig's will hopefully show that this Kasabian has taken a new path i mean it was so predictable and maybe just maybe we will get a 2hr set π
