When they were first announced as playing Coachella I figured some USA dates were going to be coming out so they could make this USA trip worth wild. Sadly nothing has emerged. I'm stunned by that actually. No one off gigs? So bizarre. I'm keeping the faith and hoping that sometime soon here we'll hear SOMETHING. I just find it really hard to believe that they're only going to do Coachella and nothing else. I agree with you but remember this, venues around that area have probably been booked up months ago by other bands, mainly those playing at Coachella. You really gotta plan ahead with a tour no matter the size. So many venues even in NYC book up months in advance. I'd imagine it is the same in southern California/Arizona area.  |

Maybe we'll get lucky and get a summer tour. Normal time seems to be announce shows 3 months before. So maybe by April we'll hear something about a July/August tour. Who knows. I'm just trying to project my wishful thinking.  But, in the end, if this is what their management thinks is a good plan...Kinda sad that the majority of us get dicked over. |

The best plan for Beady Eye to tour the USA is to link up with another band and open for them. Like for the Black Keys, Kings of Leon and Queens of The Stone Age. Something like that. Shit, maybe even open for U2 this fall. That is massive exposure to people. U2 is gonna do an arena tour, nice to get Liam back into one of those again, even if it is only half filled. |

TBH, I'd like to see them bring over Paul Gallagher & Arveene to open for them. Fat chance of that happening, but that'd be an ideal gig for me. Ergh. I really wouldn't want to pay to see them open for KOL or Black Keys. If they go that road, it'd be nice to see them open for Kasabian or some other English band. Maybe The Black Angels?? That'd be an awesome show. And their guitarist, Christian, is a huuuuuuuuge Oasis fan. |

Yeah and that Noel/Snow Patrol show was aaaaaaaawfull (maybe not awful, just god awful boring) I walked out two songs into SP's set. So yawn inducing. Noel's tour earlier that year, with opening act, was so much better. Although his opening band choice, Mona, was a tad bit emo for my tastes. I just don't want to see them do that. At least not with some boring ass band, as was the case with Noel. |

Liam called them The Snore Patrol, good fit with Noel. Two months out, it's a bit late for BDI booking any West Coast gigs in Seattle, San Francisco, Portland, or Vancouver; I'd been hopeful, but I can't see it happening now. Beady Eye's so-called "management" has been worse than lazy--it has been totally destructive to the band's best interests. Why come back in the summer when they're already in the area in April and seem to have nothing else to do? Oh, yeah, "casting" a bogus movie that has no funding yet.

At least not with some boring ass band, as was the case with Noel. Mona were pretty decent. Not bad for an opening act. Snow Patrol was sleep inducing, I literally went to sleep. But I'm still happy Noel found some way to come to the US to tour again and hit up some cities that normally wouldn't be on his usual tour. It was a great treat for fans who normally would have been skipped over, especially with having Jake Bugg opening. Given two options: Beady Eye not coming to the US at all or them at least coming and maybe playing with a dirge band like Snow Patrol....I'd take the Snow Patrol option  With Noel I got two shows....so far with Beady Eye, none. Whatever it takes they have to play the US. I'd certainly be extremely disappointed if they somehow and unbelievably didn't. I think they will, but it will be in the late summer. I'm hoping in August when they could hit up another major American festival, Lolla. |

How difficult would it be to meet the band at coachella? Extremely. You will have zero access to their backstage area. Your best bet is to find out what towns they will be in between the two weekend dates. Theres no chance the band will be walking around amongst the normal crowd? Or liam jumping down to the crowd? |

Theres no chance the band will be walking around amongst the normal crowd? Or liam jumping down to the crowd? It's an extremely slim chance. I know at Lolla artists do not just walk around amongst the crowd. Backstage areas are screened off. Artists usually go from stage to stage through either backstage areas or sometimes the fair ground will provide transportation. The artist has to really want to be amongst the crowd for you to see them among them. |

Coachella does have autograph tent. Some bands participate in that. Got to meet Real Estate, The Horrors, Yuck back in 2012.
I went to Pitchfork back in 2012 and some artists did walk around with the festival goers. Some members of the Dirty Projectors were hanging out with people. But i doubt Beady Eye would do this.

Yea, Pitchfork is such a confined place it's difficult for bands to get around without going through the common crowd (I live right down the street from Union Park where Pitchfork is typically held ). Coachella is massive though. |

They are bringing Arveene and Paul with them to the US. I had this confirmed by management the last time we spoke. "No support, 2 djs before the main event". As far as US tour info, my sources seem to have dried up. That would lead me to believe they are back to the original plan of NYC, Coachella and LA only. As far as the post that it's too late to book dates, it's definitely not. There are exceptions in this business and in some places LG is still an exception that gets made. That's a fact. When I know more, I'll share more.

While I whole heartily agree with you that there are exceptions ...in the USA now , Liam will only get a exempt status in NYC , la , maybe and I mean maybe Chicago , other than that I sadly can't agree , Liam these days in USA is still thought of the lager lout from Oasis No Oasis outside of the cities I mentioned above , no exempt status |

Now U2 would make so much business sense , I'm not knocking Liam cause you all know I don't. But that's a too smart a buisness move m that's Noel's strength. Liam don't look big pic why I relate to him
If they toured with U2 forget singing to arena crowd half filled or not , Liam and bono are great together I've read so e of there interviews like the one in the NME around HC time ...they could do press in the big cities and exposure bdi to a massive fa base in print , and the ones that show up early
To smart a buisness move .thats Noel dept ,,,,Liam will soldier on like me without caring about good buisness , why I love him ....but wish he would do that

Absolutely ! like if he came here on short notice there would be no exemt status in Orlando , trust me ..sadly |

Imagine that 8-10 cities across the USA for booking a tour super last minute. Get a bad rep behind the scenes I'd imagine. I just don't see how that is a good business model for a band that is going to fill half the venue size between huge cities like LA, Chicago, New York and Boston. |

A US tour of just NYC, LA, and Coachella would be near pointless if that's their only swing through. Obviously I'm biased because I'm in Chicago, but honestly, Chicago was one of the best stops on their last tour. It's in the middle of the country and the third largest city in the country. To skip it would just make no sense, especially because Chicago has always been a great Oasis city.
Complete west/east coast bias.

Chicago is a town that was pissed at Liam when they cancelled those gigs. But I never doubted there Iove for Oasis I always considered chi town. More Noel. But I may be off. But I certainly know what a great city for OASIS. CHITOWN. WAS.  |

I never said special treatment. Simply that there are exceptions. And just because nothing is announced doesn't mean venues are "all booked up". Stranger things have happened in the span of 8 weeks.
Just wanted to update everyone on what i had heard/hadn't heard. Also, I did forget Chicago in the original post. Chicago has always been figured in. The last show at the Metro was fantastic. It's one that the band have not forgotten about either from what I've been told.

For what it's worth Noel had a great crowd in Detroit a couple of years ago. You could barely hear him over the crowd during Supersonic. I know it's not the same as Beady Eye but it could be an indicator that a Detroit show would go over well.
