Good luck to everyone poised to buy Pulp tickets tomorrow: may the Broadband Gods be with you🤞

Some thoughts on the UK/Ireland tour in the thread below ⬇️

Jarvis said that these 11 dates are the ones confirmed “so far”, meaning we can expect more to follow.

Hopefully that means Glastonbury and further shows both at home and overseas in places like 🇫🇷 🇪🇸 🇯🇵 🇺🇸 🇲🇽 🇨🇱 🇦🇷

But these 11 concerts are BIG as they’ll see Pulp perform to 200,000-250,000 fans. The festivals in Glasgow, London and IoW are the biggest events of the lot. Interestingly, Pulp have played at 7 of these venues before.

Here’s a bumper thread about Pulp’s logos and typefaces, and how together they’ve defined the band’s visual identity for over 30 years. 1/47

The journey begins in one of Jarvis’ school exercise books from 1978. The notes he scribbled inside plotted a route to fame for his band 'Arabicus Pulp’ and it featured this angular logo. 2/47

‘Arabicus' was dropped from the band’s name but the hand-drawn logo remained as this ticket from 1980 shows.

20p = 90p in today’s money… what a bargain! 3/47
