@_chrisjones_ @BBC6Music I had the EXACT same thought when I heard it on there the other day. Couldn't help but sing I Bleed along with it. They said afterwards that they are "inspired by bands like the Pixies". No shit.
We're overwhelmed with how quickly the three shows on 29th & 30th sold out. Thanks so much for your response.
We wanted try to make a global audience inside the venue as well as online, so we've held back some venue tickets for sale...
Oh, and we're playing 3 London launch concerts on 29/30th, streamed live...😱

@_chrisjones_ @shaunwkeaveny It was such a great send-off. Loved his morning show so much (never forgave 6 Music for taking that away from me and replacing it how they did). His impeccable tune selection and brand of humour will be sorely missed!
Probably wise of the police to just leave them to it until they do something really dangerous like holding a candlelight vigil for a woman murdered by a police officer.
I’d love if they covered the UKs big 1st night out in June like a Royal wedding. I want around-the-clock coverage, interviews with drunk people, panel discussions, a fashion expert commenting on what people are wearing, helicopter shots of streets filled with people.
Here we are, Day 2 of trying to get back to Ireland. This time via Belfast. A night in a hotel was had courtesy of @british_airways and now we wait for our flight...which is already delayed 40 mins so I dont think any of us will believe it's happening til we're on the plane
@LunchtimeLiveNT@AerLingus@britishairways Hi Ross, the flight that BA have put on for us (to BHD) is due to take off at 10:40am so if we land in time, I'd be happy to speak. Although the flight is already delayed from a 10am departure so who knows!
This last minute stoppage of travel from the UK to Ireland was a genius idea. Now as well as this queue we have some lovely news that the @AerLingus flight was WAY overbooked by @britishairways so a plane's worth of Irish people are left in #Heathrow unable to get home. Hohoho
*Update* @British_Airways have sourced an alternative aircraft and crew for us all. They say the holdup was them having to negotiate with the Irish gov to ensure we could land. Now checking in. 🤞🏼 what a shitshow this evening has been
@AineDonegan7 No, sadly I didnt make it onto the flight. Too many people for the one aircraft. About 100 of us holed up in a (very nice) airport hotel for the night before they fly us to Belfast at 10am tomorrow on a one off service. Then ground transport to Dublin 🥴
