Russell could easily cruise too and from New York. It only takes a week.

Hello everyone!I understand the scepticism of some,but lets not exclude the possibility of a new record (despite what the band have said so far).I mean just because its been a long time,it doesnt mean they cant produce equally great and exciting music.i d love to hear there s a prospect of having a go at new songs and if satisfied with the result considering a release.(similar to what suede did,though i haven't heard of an outcome)
I mean come on,this planet NEEDS more good music!

Dear Spacesoup,

I have a listen to the Suede 'outcome'.

Place head in hands.

And put 'Coming Up' or 'Suede' on the hi-fi.

And forget about the outcome.

If you're genuinely interested though, you can find their new stuff on youtube if you search for Suede and St. Petersberg (Petersburg?) which is where they unveiled several new songs the other month.

I would love to see Pulp one day, since I would love to hear those songs live.

But I am a bit cautious with 'comeback' tours: I once say The Verve on their 2007 or 2008 comeback tour and I wasn't too impressed to say the least. I even found Stereophonics, who played before them on Pinkpop, more enjoyable to watch and I didn't enjoy any of their albums since 2003.

Verve stopped being good in about 1993! (no offence)

I never understand why peeps compare bands in that way. Blur are Blur, The Verve are The Verve, Suede are Suede and Pulp are Pulp. Different bands consisting of different people with different music and different songs. Just because one band does one thing it bares no relationship with another band doing their thing.

I don't mean that to seem stroppy or anything. I'm genuinely intrigued as to why people do it as it makes no sense to me?!

Weed,

Apologies - I was just having a bit of fun being overly dramatic about the Suede stuff!

Similarly - Verve and Stereophonics. Heck! The only good thing about seeing the Stereophonics live for me is that the band that followed them were Rialto. It helped lower my expectations so much that the glorious Rialto were even better than they would otherwise have been!

Dear Stephen,

thanks for that,I 'll check it out although I'm not in favour of any of their work after butler left.
However my point was that they could try it out and release stuff only if it felt good.
Anyway,sorry for bringing that up in the first place,and I do believe that Pulp are a class of it's own,and could indeed come up with something brilliant.

Verve got really shit after Northern Soul but I enjoyed the reunion shows. Stereophonics don't even bear thinking about.

Even if Pulp made a new record, I think it would be very hard for them to avoid playing their old hits on their concerts (if they
did a tour) some people would only go to hear disco 2000 etc. and they would have the risk of becoming an "heritage act".

Even after Brixton there was a guy on the tube home who stated he hadn't enjoyed the gig because they hadn't played his favourite songs.

It's a known fact you can't please every fan all the time! ;)

But there were tonnes of 'hits' each nite of Brixton. Personally, there are certain songs I wish they'd played. MLG, Help The Aged @ Acrylic Afternoons spring to mind.
Bands usually play their best known songs at the end even when they have new records out, I don't think they need to worry about becoming a heritage act when they can just play a couple of encores after the main set to keep the casuals happy.

I wonder how extensive any UK tour would be. For example, would Cardiff be included? Not many bands come here, so it'd be a shame if Pulp didn't on their final tour.

 Well that's ridiculous - okay it might be a bit of a shame but to say you didn't enjoy the gig is a bit much. He should just be happy Pulp are playing at all!

FTR for Brixton guy was most unhappy about FEELINGCALLEDLOVE not being played. Seems to have been the only thing he went for by the sounds of it!

..."The Year We Get Some Answers"?

Surely new material?

Yes, they're taking it "over the Atlantic", but if we're not "getting off that lightly" then presumably they're not going to spend 2012 playing DYRTFT followed by Monday Morning followed by Razz followed by Underwear and so on. Of course, a UK tour in smaller venues with a lesser emphasis on DClass would be an exciting supplement to an OUTSTANDING 2011...

Please-please-please, let it be the European tour as well. I don't want to battle for UK tickets with London olympics visitors and striving for the UK visa (Have you engaged in any other activities that might indicate that you may not be considered a person of good character? In times of either peace or war have you ever been involved in, or suspected of involvement in, war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide?). These are the questions they ask all tourists in the general visa application.
