Was there some boo-ing earlier (before Paninaro) when Blackpool was mentioned? Seen a post on Facebook saying Neil reprimanded the audience, and that Chris replaced the lyrics in response too?
Yes, but humorously. Neil said something about Blackpool earlier on, and then "Anyone here from Blackpool?" There was a lot of cheering, and then he pointed to the front and said "No booing!" I think Chris's antagonistic Blackpools were in response! At the end of the show, Chris was pointing and laughing (yes, really!) at the front rows - maybe someone had a sign or something?

I’ve yet to see anyone discuss the mystery of Neil’s new white coat. Did the original white trench get damaged? Was there a massive stain that could not be removed? Has it been misplaced? Did someone nick it? Alas, we may never know.
Good point! I think Chris's headgear gets more attention

Thanks for clarifying. Would love to see a clip. Must be one somewhere on social media.

Thanks for the links, it's nice to be able to see it close up. IMO there was not enough of Chris on those large screens, mostly Neil on both sides
Agreed! Incidentally, has anyone mentioned yet* that the show essentially begins with fan favourite Wedding In Berlin? The opening rising notes of the Wedding March lead to the first chord of Dreamland, before the Suburbia drums kick in.
Instagram post seems to intimate they came over to Belfast on the boat, either that or they're using some footage taken by the crew. Either way, I imagine that they didn't have to sprint up the stairs from the bus/car and stick a blanket down on the best seat to sleep on, like the rest of us
I got the overnight boat to the Liverpool gig last year, it was class.
