Solid show IMO...not great..too many ok tunes in there..replace Got Some with Animal, Sad with Once and Alone with Go and that is a great main set...
Encore 1 had Parachutes and Man of the Hour..again, 2 decent,ok tunes, but IMO they shouldn't be in the encore...neither should Unthought Known.....classics like Blood,Rats,Jeremy,Red Mosquito or Deep should have been played instead....Encore 2 very solid, Brain of J and SMILE !!! very nice...
RITFW is so played out....and its a cover... so Im done with it after 13 + years...
since the band are only playing 2 gigs this summer..this set should have been epic....solid gig IMO..not great...
.......still, I would have loved to have been there...
beautiful and sweet start Present - Nothingman
why not playing the whole London Calling!!!! damn
Sad - Alone very good pair
Lukin - Not For You - Black .. wow
first encore too long . they should have dropped Parachutes down hehe .. nice Evolution closing it and Last Exit opening
Smile - Brain of J opening the second and Indifference closing all
great set indeed!
how strong Mind You Manners blow the roof Matt?
Thanks! I don't know the song I understand the feelings towards Rocking In The Free World, but I remember similar things being said regarding Yellow Ledbetter too... Are they the only "regular" closers they've had through the years?
Well, they have definitely played RITFW a lot, but there's a reason why: With the lights on it turns the arena into a house party. It makes for a great time for the crowd. May get old for the diehards, but I'm sure most of the crowd loves it. It was great in Stockholm.
Rocking is quite obvious in Canada, especially in Ontario .. uncle Neil matter you know
they're the most used as closers yes .. Indifference far way less but still a "regular" lets say
there are many however .. I've Got a Feeling from the early days .. Porch .. Fuckin Up .. Baba O'Riley .. Alive too
and others for a bunch of dates
wow MYM looks like it kills live. Great set list overall. Parachutes-Man of the hour would of been my piss break...Have they ever opened with Present Tense? And Nothingman number 2? Wow
