Jakey Comatose announced on his blog that tonight he will be releasing the dates of his 6 date UK tour, from the end of October to early November. The venues are expected to be quite large capacity. He is looking for support acts, so anyone who wishes to support should get in contact right away. OOC: I'll put up the dates later, but PM if you want to support.

The tour has now been shifted to mid October. The first support band announced is Failed Youth (provided they can still make the new dates, of course). I can't wait to play with them, they really rip the stage up, it'll be awesome! Second support announced very soon! The tour poster:  - Jakey x Edited by user 05 October 2009 01:18:22(UTC)

Can't wait for this, should be good fun! Especially with Quarantine, they're a brilliant band. But yes, expect some pretty mental crowds after we've played!

Glasgow, Cardiff and Oxford all sold out today! Thank you to everyone who bought their tickets. Wembley has about 15% of the tickets left, Manchester has as little as 5% and Birmingham has about 10% left so if you wanna go, get buying!
Much love,

Wembley sold out at the last minute, and was an amazing gig. The other bands light it up tonight, I'm so excited for the rest of the tour.
Here's my set!
Intro: The Comatose
The Sound of Machines
The Second Hand
The Glass and the Streetlights
The Deepest Breath
Epilogue: The Purpose
We then showed a short clip projected on a white curtain in front of the stage, it was quite cool, kind of art rock - just me playing a piano in the middle of the desert.. Can't imagine where the inspiration for that came from. Behind the curtain, we rearranged some stuff to prepare for the second half of the set.
Hot Knives [Bright Eyes Cover]
Friend of a Friend
Common Cold for Common Blood
Spread by Word of Mouth
Erosion
An Army of Cuts and Bruises
The backing band and I then left the stage, and the curtain fell once more. Everything got dragged off the stage except the microphone. On the curtain, a countdown was played y'know like an old school movies. When it reached zero, it fell to the floor and I came back on. I then played one last song, alone.
Wishful Thinking
All I can say is a huuuuuge thankyou to the support acts, you made tonight what it was, one of the best nights of my life and of course I owe it to the fans who came and literally packed the arena full.
much love from on tour,
Jakey x |

Thank you Regan for his awesome comments. This tour is going by waaay too quickly, but I'm off on tour with Pilot after this so I suppose I shouldn't complain too much, eh? Haha.
Failed Youth - you wouldn't believe their live shows. Mental! At some points I feel sorry for the front row because they are taking such a battering, but at the end of the day they totally love it! Really impressed with this band, they have a very bright future ahead of them.
Quarantine - we all know how good this band are live, and on this tour they've really pushed the limits. So glad I've got Regan on board, he's a real musical legend and I'm always excited to work with him.
Don't miss any of the bands! There's a really cool vibe going on on this tour and I've definitely made some great friends.
Here's my setlist from last night:
Intro: The Comatose
The Sound of Machines
The Glass and the Streetlights
The Incident
The Deepest Breath
Epilogue: The Purpose
-
Tonight, Tonight [Smashing Pumpkins cover]
Common Cold for Common Blood

Tours been going AMAZING. I love Jakey and his music and the guys in Quarantine are awesome. We were a little nervous coming on the tour but now we've completely settled down and have really gotten into the swing of things. Everything's going really smoothly and the roadies are some of the best I've ever met. In fact they deserve a round of applause cos no one ever thinks of them but they're the ones that get everything set up and everything ready and they are the heart of the tour. None of this would be possible without them, they're amazing.
So yes, here's OUR setlist from last night, if you weren't there or haven't seen it on youtube yet then shame on you. You can see a couple of songs (the ones highlighted) on our Youtube page.
Setlist
God Bless The Doorman
Pretty Little Things
Needle Fuck
Under Control
Corporation Terrorism
Bound By My Mercy
Blood On The Floor
I've Become Impossible
We've Failed You
Revolution
So yes, check out the videos and also we're going to be posting on our sexy blog site soon about the tour and maybe some pictures? But yes, we'll definately post some shizzle on that and whatever.
Peace, x

Ahh yes - pictures. Or rather, a lack of them. Here's one of me, taken about an hour ago. Sweaty fucker!  Birmingham NIA - after fAthOm I never thought I'd get a chance to headline that stage again, but what a night. Everyone was on form again! Here's my setlist: Intro: The Comatose The Sound of Machines The Glass and the Streetlights The Sun Through Clouds [B-Side] The Deepest Breath Epilogue: The Purpose - Boys Don't Cry [The Cure cover] Friend of a Friend It's Not Raining Anymore [New song] Time Enough [New song] An Army of Cuts and Bruises A Pulse - Wishful Thinking As you guys may have noticed, I've tried out a couple of new track the past few nights. They're sounding pretty cool. Time Enough sounds like a mid-ninties Smashing Pumpkins song, and It's Not Raining Anymore is very 'grunge' sounding. More good stuff's on the way, I promise. 2 more shows left. Jakey sadddd. Love Jakey x |

Wow! Tonight had to be one of our best performances EVER! Everyone was jumping up and down. We didn't play anything off of the Salvation trilogy but we did play a cover song, couple of new songs and some old ones from the first cd. Seriously, everyone was moving! Here is the setlist:
Setlist:
12.21.2012
The Reaper*
DNA/RNA
Boiler Room
Airbag Light*
Sleep-Apnea*
Insight**
First Rule Of Fight Club
Who Watches The Watchmen?
The Republic
*=New songs
**=Depeche Mode cover
Also like to note that the album has been officially written. We should be back in the studio on October 22nd to record it. It'll take a while since these are only demos we have been playing live. So we might go back and make changes to half of these songs that we have been playing on this tour other than that this album should be ount if not November then defintely December. I didn't know it would move as fast as it has been. Thanks!
Love,
Regan. |

Hmm, so a few technical difficulties tonight in that my effects rig just would not work. The techs were busy working on it, so I decided I'd flip my set around and start with the acoustics and then move onto the electrics later. Thankfully they got it up and running just in time - it was frantic though, and I haven't felt nervous like that for ages. Everything goes wrong, y'know, and you just gotta make the best of it! I ended up doing a longer set tonight - hopefully the other guys don't think that it was a Jakey Comatose ego trip!
Here's my setlist:
Friend of a Friend
An Army of Cuts and Bruises
Untitled New Song
Lime Tree [Bright Eyes cover]
Spread By Word of Mouth
What Was Done Here Today...
Wishful Thinking
At about this point I got word that the difficulties were resolved. I breathed a huuuge sigh of relief and told the crowd I'd be back in 5 minutes. A curtain fell and we played an old school movie clip.
Intro: The Comatose
The Sound of Machines
The Echoes
The Deepest Breath
The Glass and the Streetlights
Epilogue: My Purpose
I tried to end it with a bang with My Purpose, as it's the finishing track of my first album. As I got offstage the roadies all pointed out that everyone online had been talking about the shows, and thus the crowd were expecting an encore. I totally froze, and THIS was when I started to feel nervous! Luckily I could bounce an idea of Regan, who suggested I just play a new track and see how it goes down - thanks man! I went back on stage again and played It's Not Raining Anymore, and the crowd seemed to enjoy it, but I don't know, it didn't end up the concert as nicely as I like to. So I played what I knew best - a version of Honey, Your Halo's Not On Straight by fAthOm. A few of the people in the crowd were a little pissed I think, but it was a song for the front row kids, and they loved it.
I like to think that I got away with tonight. Back to normal tomorrow night, I hope, as it's the last night of the tour. Already. Shit.
Love
Confused and Tired Jakey |

This tour has just been amazing. We didn't expect the crowd to like our change in musical direction but they are just eating it up these past nights!

Wow, last night of the tour was by far the best for us. We played our asses off and everyone was screaming and jumping up and down and going completely mental which is always a good sign. We played a killer set and we hope that did good for ol' Jakey!
