PETER GABRIEL - I/O: The Tour 2023 (general info)

Ouch - £200 for a decent ticket at the O2 on a Monday night. I definitely can't justify that sort of price.

Hope those going enjoy it, but sad to say I'll be giving it a miss.

Hopefully we'll get an announcement about the album soon!

Quote from Backdrifter

Why? School night and all that?

Yep! That early in the week means at least one wasted day's leave for me for the day after. Coupled with the price of getting there and home again - I'll keep the money and spend it on 3 days worth of electric

OMG

It's real!

Got quite excited about all this till I saw the price of tickets. No way I'm paying that much!

Everything's fine!

But why the tour and after the album?

The rankings themselves are ludicrous - The Fugitive supposedly the worst, So allegedly the best, among other silly placings - but some of the summary descriptions are quite good and I'm glad Sides featured highly and gets a positive write-up as I've always had a soft spot for it

Quote from Christian

Seriously - does anybody care about this „website“? They only publish rubbish.

Well, that's an opinion. a seriously flawed one in many ways. Sure, this solo list is nonsense, with Gabriel and Collins getting far too much kudos for albums that shouldn't be in the top 10, but "They only publish rubbish"? I think you might want to wind back on the caffeine.

A tour before an album... Money money for Live Nation but I'm glad to see him at Lille next May!

I was surprised the pre-sale was so quick after the announcement and as I was really busy was not able to look for tickets until late in the evening. Glad to say I now have a ticket for Glasgow

Me too. I imagine it's very hard to get Peter to agree to any firm announcement/release dates and then stick to it! The original Manu Katche interview said the album would be out by the end of the year. I can easily imagine people trying to set the release date but Peter keeps finding just one more thing to tinker with!! I have to keep pinching myself that I/O looks to be actually, finally, really happening!!

Got my tix. Prices were ok for me, but still pretty high compared to his last tour. I'm sure this os too much for a lot of people
