Anyone snapped up gig/festival tickets for 2011 yet?

At the moment, I have tickets for:

Roxy Music @ The O2 - Feb
ATP @ Minehead - May (curated by Animal Collective)
Take That @ Manchester City Stadium - June
Bright Eyes @ Royal Albert Hall - June
O2 Wireless/Pulp @ Hyde Park - July
ATP @ Alexandra Palace - July (curated by Portishead)

I think I'd like to get End of the Road tickets, and Reading Festival (depending on lineup) too. We'll see...

Not a bad line up - I'd go see TT if the rumours about Mesh supporting them turn out to be true. Only two festivals for me this year - Amphi and Infest. Unless I end up working at them both, in which case I'd go to another.

Loads of gig already - this year could be a great year for gigs I think!!

February - Rob Zombie, Black Label Society
March - Touchstone, Interpol, Elbow, Teans-Siberian Orchestra
May - Delain, Magnum, Roger Waters, Rush
June - Journey, Foreigner, & Styx
August - Iron Maiden
November - Within Temptation

So 13 gigs lined up already and it's still the first week of January!!

As for Festivals, probably High Voltage, maybe Sonisplere and 2000 Trees!

Just bought tickets for Iron & Wine @ The Roundhouse in March - I can't seem to help myself clicking 'purchase'

Definitely a good year for gigs!

I was going to see Hurts but sadly its the day I go to New York, shame but I'm sure I will find some gigs to go to. I'd love to see Paloma again.

August - Iron Maiden

Cannot wait, one of my all-time favourite acts, first time the classic line-up has played in Belfast since the 80s.

Tell me how it goes. Wanted to go unfortunately my friends don't know real music and never heard of Elbow before like many on DS when they won the Brit award for Best Band back in 2009 .

Yeah to be fair I did see them in 07 at Roskilde and last year at Leeds, but I'd love to see them again this year.

Got my ticket for Arcade Fire/Mumford & Sons @ Hyde Pk yesterday, and Pete Doherty @ Shepherds Bush. Another two to add to my ever-expanding list
