    hahahaha I had totally missed that, very well spotted.

    They have a soft spot for black humour so who knows...

    Oh very cool, didn't spot that. MMM interesting! Well, let's hope it is a hint. For me his guitar definitely adds another layer to some songs. He did mention in interview when asked about it, like quite awhile after it happened but cant recall what the interview was, that he was going to have some more surgery on it and they might be able to fix him up, so you never know.
  3. This is so very true!
  4. fingers crossed, in any case would love for him to have that ability back!
  5. I think this tour might be a snippet-fest.

  6. I'm with you in this. I'd consider it to be perfect.
  7. I think the exact other way round, I'm expecting very few snippets - don't ask me why
  8. I expect few snippets also, from what we've heard from rehearsals they seem to be trying to keep the songs as close to the album in terms of structure at least and they're not throwing in lots of extra bits except the el pueblo vencera at the end of mothers which is great and the little rant during exit which doesn't sound like a problem to me (for someone who isn't particularly fond of snippets).
  9. I am expecting a lot of snippets. i don't think the amount of snippeting will be any different. they always have a lot snippets on every tour so why would this tour be any different? idk why those are just my thoughts.


  10. In the rehearsals so far, they're really blasting through the songs. They aren't as long and meandering as some versions - ISHF, WOWY, Bullet especially. Maybe just a more tight, direct approach to them?
