   You guys WILL play LA separately right? You aren’t going to make me sit in the desert all day under a 110 degree sun will you? I was close to traveling to Paris before that gig was cancelled (and before my cowardly family backed out of the trip). LOOKING FORWARD TO THE SHOW! FINALLY GOING TO SEE MY FAVORITE BAND.

   Hi, I’m from Los Angeles. We haven’t seen Madness here for 6-7 years, since the Dangermen tour (sans Chrissey Boy). Please come to Los Angeles before, after, or around the time of Coachella!!!! The place was packed last time – you have lots of fans in LA.

   I hope this means there will be some California club dates. That gig at Bimbo’s 365 in San Francisco a few years back was one of my top shows of all time!

    Not sure why I decided to go to Coachella this year (didn’t even look at the lineup first), but it must have been fate, since now… Madness… kill me I’m too happy! Haven’t seen Madness since I politely stalked them in Washington DC in 1980 (or thereabouts!) Seriously. Happy. Can’t. Wait.

    PLEASE go ahead and do a full U.S. tour! I’ve been a fan since the ’80s; finally seeing Madness would cap my bucket list!

    Thank you for adding the extra West Coast shows for the folks that can’t afford Coachella tickets. Your California fans really appreciate it!!
