With today being last show and start of weekend, hoping we’ll get Shameless or It’s Not Unusual? Shameless was biggest b-side as was basically double A side w/ Go West, and the Tom Jones cover is best cover they’ve done and quite obscure.

Reality is they play neither lol. Vote for favorite night so far is the Johnny Marr night.

I need the A certain je ne sais quoi video...Never saw any of Hit and Miss either. And surprised they haven't done In His Imagination yet. Maybe tonight feat. Joel Gibb as the surprise guest?

Seems you didn't get my previous setlist. You only can get the tracks, which are written there for tonight...

Comrades!! Didn't see that one coming! Love to see a little Potemkin in the mix.

Also happy to see that Will o the wisp got five days of love.

Hope everyone enjoys the show tonight! :dance: :dance: :dance:
For your own good, call me tonight.

Enjoyed the gig last night (Thurs), great to hear Requiem which proved popular. I'd love the boys to do more of these sorts of performances, there's only so many times I can hear Go West or West End Girls. The number of people singing along this week shows there's more than enough petheads to venture beyond the hits.

I thought the venue was perfect, albeit cramped as many previous posts suggest. Sound was really poor, too quiet, especially when Neil was talking. I had no idea what he was saying, and neither did the people around me. Will-o-the-wisp was mixed really weirdly, muddy and the bass couldn't cut through.

Disappointed (once more) not to hear After The Event :(

Many thanks to TheGardner for keeping us up to date this week
