I saw them on their first gig in Budapest, in 1996. Were you there too? It'll be amazing to see them live again...

Oh yes, I managed to get tickets for the Brussels date... wasn't easy, but very happy it worked out in the end.
Never seen them before, but always wanted too!

How about Warsaw on the 15th October? Just two days before the Budapest gig.

Edit: I just ordered my tickets for the Budapest gig, and all the best seats are taken. :(

great..lets jump around to this:

I tried to get tickets for the Albert Hall show (do DCD have shows,performances or gigs??) ,again all the best seats seemed to be going really fast,so I decided I didn't really need to go..too much money for just one night down in London.....I still can't work out exactly who I'm trying to convince..

@PiB: You didn't add "laughing out loud" emoticon- that's why all this confusion.
to avoid any missconceptions: this is sarcasm

I think your jokes are funnier when people take you seriously. :notworthy:

On FB they say that "A few additional tickets have been released fro The Royal Albert Hall, London....." In case you weren't tempted enough.

I have just seen it and went so far to "buy" tickets to see where they were in the hall itself!--I'm afraid to say I believe things happen for a reason and not to get the tickets first time was a good enough reason not to get tickets...oh and I need to get new windows for the house,so me going on a one night jolly to London is a bit daft..and I spent £150 on both the reissued 180g Dead Can Dance vinyl box-sets...( the missus doesn't know about this yet)
so to sum up..nah!I think I will give this a miss!!

Since I saw their new promo picture on FB, I have been listening to nothing but DCD. Okay, mostly them. I really can't wait to see them in October.

The whole album was on Yt for a few days, Gerrard sings 4 songs and Perry another 4.

Well the songs are very good but, as someone on a different forum correctly pointed out, they do sound like each contributed 4 tracks from their solo works, so it sounds more like a split lp than a dead can dance record but since the songs are good this probably dosent matter at all.

What i did find annoying though was the price they charge for the limited edition of the new cd, 50+17(postage) euros for something that dosent look that exquisite and nowhere it is mentioned how limited this version is (1000? 10000? 20000?) Well in these times is a bit too much to ask for.
The vinyl version will do just fine.

Yeah, I'm with you on this: new album is pretty good, but does sound as if they each did their own bits and not that much together. But still a nice surprise to see there's a new album coming...
I for one can't wait for the Brussels gig end of september!
