I have. But not performing their latest single in favour of other, more 'obscure' tracks is surely rather odd, you must agree?

Wasn't there some backstage issue with the 'I'm with Stupid' performance on TOTP? Maybe they want to avoid that balance issue at this show.

Looks like a great set list. It would be fantastic if they would put this and the new documentary on a DVD release.

"After all" is a big surprise . I always thought If they do a Potemkin track they would choose "No time for tears".

an interesting set list, but not one that i'd be pleased about for one festival shows; as the radio broadcast will only last an hour, i guess we can speculate which tracks will finally make it to air; the others might be included as b-sides or even d/l from the site.
by the way, when have they ever played ICHH live?

If it's only gonna be one hour on the radio then I hope I get to hear 'Dreaming Of The Queen' or I will be very annoyed

I'm really happy that Anne Dudley will play with them and that Mr Trevor Horn will be at the bass....God I wish I'll win tickets for the concert.
