I heard about this a short while back but had forgot all about it.

Cheers for the heads up, definitely worth a look imo.

Mikes glorious short dyed hair days hehe

I still hope for one last hurrah tour of sorts by Mike but very unlikely. He is happy in retirement if what I have read is true.

I got to see Mike on the Hear and Now tour (I think it was called) but missed everything else.

I watch the live TB2 video often as well as the TB3 premier. Fantastic shows, heck I even like the Berlin Millennium Bell show hehe

Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells: The Best of Tubular Bells I, II & III UK Tour 2026 - Senbla The Best of Tubular Bells I, II & III, which celebrates the brilliance of these iconic and seminal musical pieces, will tour across the UK throughout February and March 2026. This 26 date UK tour will...

Just booked tickets to see a Tubular Bells concert, Mike is not performing of course but it is apparently good.

I found out about this today and the Gateshead show is on Friday so cutting it a bit fine but there are a few tickets remaining for anyone interested.

When I was probably 7 or 8 my dad got a Jean Michel Jarre VHS and on it there was a BTS clip of Jarre twiddling knobs and making what I felt at the time was magic happen.

Good old days, now I have vintage ARP software/plugins, not the same. I would have love to play around with some of that stuff.

But climate expert Donald Trump says it is all a big hoax.

So hard to know who to trust. /s

No wonder our lads are fatigued.

In from the start this evening ⚡️

How we line-up at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this evening 💪

I let out a genuine chuckle when I read this post.

That is a rare thing. It is funny because it is true. I have been having a decent day but at 7:30pm that is likely to change somewhat 😂

Still wouldn't miss it for the world. Howay the lads!!

Need a good display from the lads tonight!

Ohh yes The Songs of Distant Earth album is a regular listen for me, has some great parts and I enjoy it as a whole.

Ascension is probably my favourite track, the guitar at about 2:50 mins is brilliant imo.

I purchased this album on release day on CD with my pitiful apprentice wages hehe

The "new" Hergest Ridge is also great, especially in terms of sound quality but the original recording, much like Tubular Bells is my favourite version for reasons I cannot explain.

I do love a good Mike Oldfield album and there are quite a few.

Looks great (did a quick Google) but a bit far to travel.

Where is that? I have a 2 year old grandson who I think believes he is an actual dinosaur. He would love that!

I am desperately trying to be optimistic.

Wish me luck 🤪

Banging tune from wor Alan. 😂

Horrific 😂

7 mins from Kick-Off, what is this Arsenal shit?

That 3rd against the Mackems, chefs kiss.

Xhaka out and one-man team Sunderland are falling apart. Bowen is cooking that lifting LB, Reinildo.

PSG playing tonight at 7pm if you wanna check the opposition for next week. #NUFC

I am in the 1K club now.

Stuff is getting pretty serious now like. 😂

The worst for me was 3pm kickoff games, then I got my VPN and it has been pretty much perfect for a while now.
