If the date and price work for me.
Canada(assuming it’s Toronto) could be an option too. They’re one of the most exciting things to happen musically for me in recent years so I’d love to see one of these shows.

Or just the Dec 14th show, which I'm assuming is a performance of the new album, Acts of Faith, in London
Either way I'm definitely trying to get tickets to the Canada show. Toronto would be ideal since I live here. Montreal could go down too. New York is a possibility, but less likely since it'll need to turn into a larger trip.

They're not coming to my city. And I will go to New York to see them. But it won't be possible if the tickets go on sale 3 days before the show like they did for London.
But, $100 is an expensive ticket regardless. And they were charging out the ass for vinyl (particular the Cleo Sol records).

All of Sault's discog and Cleo's (even pre-ordered the latest releases)
That price, if it holds true for Canada, means I'll most likely be going solo to the show intead of buying 2 tickets as I normally would.
I love live music and supporting artists I care about, but people aren't being unreasonable about the price. Especially if they have to pay for travel/accommodation to one of the few locations mentioned. Hopefully the live show is incredible and people get their money's worth.

I'll post more info about it tomorrow but it really was incredible, the most unique concert experience I've ever been to. Happy to answers any questions about it too
All of the SAULT featured artists were there, and performed either with a mask on or behind a screen shown as a silhouette. So this had Cleo Sol, Little Simz, Chronixx, Kid Sister and Michael Kiwanuka!!!
Whilst they were performing there was a large stage and catwalk that had dancers with choreography to match each track. The setlist was roughly:
Section 1: Orchestral/choir section AIR 4am Time is Precious A tribal drumming/dance segment Fear No Man God's Will
Section 2: Tracks from the new album
Section 3: Previous albums X Glory Bitter Streets Free Let Me Go Over I Just Want To Dance Warrior Faith Angel Masterpiece Fight For Love Don't Waste My Time Up All Night Son Shine Why Why Why Why Why Colour Blind Strong Black Is Wildfires
10. "I wonder if they are planning something similar" In response to Reply # 8
for the other cities - or if they will be more of a traditional concert vibe (due to logistical challenges)
either way I'm down and I'm avoiding watching any of the phone footage - hopefully they recorded it for a well-produced release? did you see any type of film crew in the mix?
