What a night! Adding to all the love for Up Against It which was literally incredible
Always was possibly the most moving and melancholic live moment I've experienced with PSB in 40 years. It was so beautiful.
I Didn't Get Where I Am Today was brilliant with Johnny Marr.
My only why? was The Performance of My Life. No idea why they did that. A waste of a song on the setlist. Leave that one for Shirley and add I Want A Lover or A Man Could Get Arrested or Shameless!
And who knew that a whole room chanting along IT"S NOT ALL FOOTBALL AND FAGS would be such a great live moment.
Going again Friday. What a time to be a PSB fan

We’re different from the others.
No one understands us here.
Imagine how free we will be,
If we disappear?

You need to think of people, which seem to be cheap and if it would easy to get them in the show...psbfannyc wrote: Thu 09 Apr 2026, 8:19 am I wonder who, if anyone, will be additional guests? Kylie for "In Denial"? Francis Barber? Who else? What do we think?
So maybe:
Frances could be such a person, or
Olly (Alexander)...
Patsy...yes, but she wasn't really in the job the last couple of years,
Liza hardly to believe,
Sam Taylor-Wood - could be,
Robbie - too big, but he would be dying to do this, if someone paid the coming (I guess),
Madonna - naaah, too big and senseless expensive, the old bitch,
Elton John - could be!
Tom Stephan - very imaginable!
Wolfgang Tillmans - very imaginable!
Jimmy Somerville - could be!
Noel Gallagher - not really sure...
someone from Sleafort Mods or The Hidden Cameras - very imaginable!
Morten Haket - not really sure...
Marc Almond - very imaginable!
Shirley Bassey - hardly to believe!
Rufus Wainwright - very imaginable!

Pete Burns is dead so I doubt he'll be attending.
Shirley Bassey and Liza have both retired from performing.
Tom was at the show on Tuesday night I think?

Well it's not the setlist I'd have chosen, but that's always going to be the case for a show like this. I think most people would probably agree it was a bit ballad heavy though, and after a great start, the show lost a bit of energy. It seems kind of nuts to me that they would miss out what I'd have thought were obvious inclusions such as Miserablism, Shameless and and That's My Impression.
However it was very enjoyable and I'm glad they decided to do these shows. Seeing Johnny Marr was great, and Neil was very relaxed and funny.
Also glad that the very enthusiastic Italian lady queuing near me managed to get a front row slot, and made good use of it!

...and now:
I need someone, who will attend todays show (and/or) the show tomorrow, and would be willing to send out the played tracks to me (WhatsApp, Messenger, Signal, etc...) - to post it here for the setlist.
Anyone willing to send just short words like "intro - mfb" or "whisp" or "divited", "jack", "truckdriver" and so one..... beside all the own videos and photos during the gig???? Also "double words" are welcome, after two tracks, like "whisp, divited" or somethings in that style...
Most of the tracks and setlist during the gigs are clear, but the new tracks should be mentioned in full (an upagainstit will do it), so there's no missunderstanding. Even a "special guest" if there's one, and what s/he is doing on stage (if possible).
I don't want to steal much of your time to enjoy the show - so just short words would be enough...
People with a EE mobile contract are very welcome
People with a Vodefone mobile contract are welcome
People with O2 network meeehhhh
I have no info about - how perfect is a contract from Three in the Ballroom
Anyone? THANKS!
Best would be a picture of the setlist from the audience desk (if they accidentially will leave one), but I guess they've learned their lesson from the first show...
Cheers Steffen

I wonder if the shows are being filmed for a possible Blu-Ray release, I hope so 
If you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to fear
If you've something to hide, you shouldn't even be here!

Re: Obscure SPOILER thread - set lists, reviews etc
Yeah, it's hard to quibble bearing in mind some of the songs they played but it seems the intention was to focus on the slower tracks. I kind of agree with the Evening Standard reviewer - so many bangers they could have played and Mr Vain did go down rather well.thomashenry wrote: Thu 09 Apr 2026, 9:40 am Well it's not the setlist I'd have chosen, but that's always going to be the case for a show like this.

We were stood next to the 'fence' around the mixing desk - it gave us something to lean on too. We're not as young as we were....
