Beautiful Loser 48,613 Posted November 10, 2023 Me prediction back in October was so wrong lol! It makes sense he’s going back to the states, his biggest audience is there after all. Also, he’s going to South America for the Lollapalooza festivals! I don’t remember the last time he was there, or if he’s ever been? 0 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beautiful Loser 48,613 Posted November 27, 2023 First stop of the European leg and I was there! (Because it’s my hometown lol) He mentioned twice that last night’s audience was the biggest he’s had in Europe, but I’m not sure if he meant so far on this tour (and it’s the first stop so… well) or biggest one overall. And I’m thinking that’s awesome! But is that really true? Surely, he must’ve had a bigger audience at least at festivals (Glastonbury!) or in Dublin? Oh well. The arena was almost completely filled, I heard only 40 tickets were still available! So cool! The stage was beautiful! This is the Unreal Unearth tour so the set decor was inspired by the album photoshoot - grass and roots were hanging from the ceiling, and sometimes the ends of the roots (or tips of the tree branches) twinkled. So pretty! And the backdrop had this crinkled paper effect, so it all just looked really nice. Excellent camera work, too. He took breaks sometimes to present a song (how much he admires Mavis Staples), or chat with the audience (challenging the crowd to sing the ooh’s before To be alone starts, mentioning visiting Stockholm as an exchange student when he was a teenager and had ten days to do whatever he wanted in the city). Some of it felt familiar since I’ve already seen him twice before, but it’s always nice to hear. Also! I’m still happy he takes time to present everyone on the crew, and I mean everyone! It just shows how much he appreciates them all. He sounded excellent, his backup singers (one was new, I don’t remember seeing her before) were AMAZING, setlist was great (unfortunately no No Plan but I kinda already knew it because he didn’t seem to play it on the US tour), I had great company. I stood outside in the cold, waiting for the doors to open for almost three hours, but it was worth it! A girl almost right next to me fainted during the encore, I think she was one of those who had been waiting since six(!) in the morning. Listen, it’s just not worth it, it really isn’t. Take care of yourself if you’re getting a standing ticket. Hozier thankfully saw us pointing for his attention and he stopped the band playing Work song. People moved to make way for her and her friend to get to security, I think they were okay from there. Also, I was so glad to see like the prettiest band shirt ever?? It’s green and has a birdie with horns on it, so glad they still had my size left! 2 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beautiful Loser 48,613 Posted February 22 Hozier is dropping his first EP (of two?? three?? who knows!) with four new songs next month! He mentioned a collab with Alison Russell, the song is called “Wildflower and Barley”! This man stays BUSY aaaa so exciting! I didn’t expect new music so soon! source (Mexican radio channel): https://www.tiktok.com/@hozierupdates/video/7337778332219542789?_t=8k4ikRshIZs&_r=1 2 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beautiful Loser 48,613 Posted March 1 Deluxe anniversary pressing of Wasteland, Baby! is available! New colored vinyls and additional songs: Shrike (Live at Windmill Lane Studios) Moment's Silence (Common Tongue) Why Would You Be Loved Be (Acoustic) NFWMB Moment's Silence and NFWMB have been released earlier (and I was so mad they didn't make it to the album, and now I'm upset again that they are... on this deluxe pressing I'm not sure I even want), and Hozier said on social media posts that the acoustic version of Be is the original version, which he actually prefers and is supposedly much different from the album release. https://store.hozier.com/products/wasteland-baby-limited-ultra-clear-transparent-green-vinyl-2lp The webshop also sells anniversary merch for Wasteland and the self-titled debut album. I kinda want the green No Plan cap, it's one of my fav songs of his. 4 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LustForcocc 743 Posted March 28 I’m looking for 2 tickets for hozier at Finsbury Park July 7th if any of you guys happen to have any you’re selling - if not what’s everyone’s experience with viagogo? It’s the only place I’m finding resale tickets at the moment (for double face value 🙄) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s the only place I’m finding resale tickets at the moment (for double face value 🙄) I have no idea how viagogo is like or how trustworthy it is, unfortunately. However, maybe there'll be more tickets closer to the show when people can't go because something unexpected comes up. Good luck! --------------------------------- Alsoooo, Unheard EP has released! Four songs that didn't make it to the Unreal Unearth album. Too Sweet seems to have become a hit, and I personally like Empire Now a lot. A merch line has dropped as well. https://store.hozier.com/collections/unheard 0 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beautiful Loser 48,613 Posted June 24 It’s your resident Hozier fangirl here, keeping the thread alive. Too Sweet became a smash hit and Andrew’s first song to hit #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 and Irish #1! I’m really happy for him, he’s so talented and deserves all the love for this song. He also posted this on his Insta story, a picture of him posing with a gold disc, for the sales in the Netherlands! 3 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beautiful Loser 48,613 Posted August 18 Unaired is out, with three new songs he wrote during the pandemic; Nobody’s Soldier, July, and That you are featuring Bedouine. I hope I get to hear Nobody’s Soldier live someday, and July is so dreamy, I’m keeping on repeat right now. Oh, to be Hozier’s July…! In his email newsletter, he kinda gave us a fandom name?? “Souls”? I like it, very on-brand. 1 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beautiful Loser 48,613 Posted October 24 Since I bought Unreal Unearth from his Universal webshop, I got this email a few moments ago, announcing the extended version of the album before it goes out to the general public. For those who already own the album on vinyl, there's the option to just buy the EP singles and an unreleased song, "Hymn to Virgil", and store your album in the sleeves. Very cool in my opinion! I might cave in and pre-order one, just wanna see how much I'll get in my paycheck tomorrow first lol... Raw ochre vinyl Black vinyl 3 "Tooth white" white vinyls, deluxe edition, containing the full Unreal Unearth album + the singles 2 CD deluxe album Announcement video: 2 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
