I love Pulp but that demand was mental. I can only presume a lot will be resale arseholes etc.

 Resale for profit isn't that prevalent these days with eTickets.  I have noted that lots of tickets become available on Twickets close to the date for lots of gigs.  Can only list at up to price paid including fees.  Twickets add around 10%. 

It was  similar demand last time around and even back in 1990s.  Ever since Theatre Royal Drury Lane in 1994, Pulp tickets sell very quickly.

However, I will point out that the Arctic Monkeys tickets for Hillsborough Park next summer cost an eye watering £195. Yes, you read that right.

 Fucking hell, I wouldn't watch them if you paid me £195.

once hawley was announced....i had the wife interested in the idea of flying over....but alas, no luck this morning. oh well....praying the "so far" means at least a NYC show

Two nights in Sheffield Premier Inn for £400 ??? Hotels in the centre are ASTRONOMICAL. I managed to just book an Ibis in Rotherham for 2 nights, 82 quid

 Ditto Dublin.  Will be in Ireland that weekend, but an extra couple of nights in Dublin is another 400 Euro.  Might just head direct to Tipperary where its just 80 Euro.

 Travelodge wanted £399 when I checked this morning.. Bloody TRAVELODGE.

 

There's still the odd seated ticket for Saturday in Sheffield popping up for face value, at time of posting anyway: https://www.gigsandtours.com/event/pulp/utilita-arena/2454599

 Grim. They also have a habit of aggressively overselling rooms which is a disgrace.

Assuming Pulp get added to Glastonbury, I think that would make them the first band to ever get 'relegated' from being a Pyramid headliner to a lower ranking slot ... With the exception of surprise special guest slots such as The Killers, Pulp themselves or Radiohead.

Certainly no shame as it shows they've remained relevent even after the hits and stardom of the mid-90s, but an interesting fact none-the-less.

I think I created the prediction of them subbing for AMs! Jarvis to appear, dancing, to I Bet You Look Good... with AMs. Other stage headliners is also on the cards.

Think Travis have played much lower since headlining, and Skunk Anansie were back last year. Then theres the Chems who I guess have been relegated to the Other, though of course theyre not a band really.

Cool stat!

Folk are speculating a Pulp followed by either Elton John or Arctic Monkeys headline for Glasto. Both are an intriguing proposition. I absolutely hate camping and being surrounded by people 24/7 but I'm going to try for Glastonbury tickets tomorrow morning for the one and only time.

I'd never go to Glastonbury, but Pulp and Arctic Monkeys on the same bill would be a dream for me. The last two AM albums have been phenomenal- they've come a long way since their early stuff. Although tbh I'd prefer Jarv Is supporting Arctic Monkeys- it's interesting how similar they sound these days!
