The PPF tour was exactly what they needed to do at that point to reignite my love - from the moment they stepped on stage to Found that Soul (WHY DON'T THEY OPEN, LET ALONE PLAY IT MORE OFTEN) to closing with Motown Junk, for someone who first saw them on the EMG tour this was the most exciting and dangerous I ever saw them performing live.
Thank you Interesting to hear how at the time my love for the band was waning it seems it was rekindled for many others! And oh lord yes. How I'd love to hear Found That Soul open a Manics gig these days and not Motorcycle.
