I think anything qualifies under "fan favourites" They can play West End girls (unfortunately)
Could this be the first ever PSB gig without West End girls (excluding Battleship Potemkin)?

Yes, but I'd like to hear the Joe Stalin verse
Do they dare do a Bobby O mix?
Could Neil ever again wear a shirt untucked below a sweater?

If they donāt do West End girls Iāll take back everything Iāve said about their concerts being lame for the last 10 years.

I like Cricket Wife, and find it very moving to listen to. It skilfully articulates the confusion, anger and despair that must accompany dementia, and a profound need to retreat back into dreams of love and happiness.
Wouldn't want a live performance of it though, I agree!

It's in a league of its own and should stay there ā i. e. on that obscure Annually CD.
Surprising to see someone wonāt be enjoying if they they played I didnāt get where I am today.

The sound of the atom splitting was performed āliveā during an āintervalā in the 1989 concerts
It was bloody marvellous
For some reason, they put it on Highlights as the opening track
