That was incredible. I was surprised at how well some of the slower TIMT songs came off live, like I’m Not Working and My Little Empire. And the second half was sheer joy. Sleepflower! Tristesse! Solitude! The final run of You Love Us, No Surface and DFL made me truly feel like I was at a Manics gig in 96 again. Very happy now. Hoping for Umbrella tomorrow night

Okay nitpicking now but they really, really, REALLY need to turn down Wayne’s mic. And they should have done NLY, of course. But it was still utterly brilliant.

Loved Gwenno too, Le Kov was one of my favourite albums of last year and she was brill live, especially Eus Keus!

Hope everyone got home okay - chaos on the Central line as the train I was on caught fire and we were all evacuated at Marble Arch! Seems it was all sorted fairly quickly though but a little bit nerve-wracking to make your way out of a tube station that reeks of smoke.
