Wow, that would be awesome. Do we have to wait until 20 years though? Just give us it next year, there's no need to really wait 3 years. I just picked up my Lifeblood CD and removed the booklet - it's still as glossy and smelling lovely as the day I got it

Pro tip. Everyone might want to sell their Lifeblood vinyl before 2024. eBayers go silly for it even though it’s a terrible pressing.
I’m gonna bundle mine with a Manics Heart tee in November. Last edited by Dancing Kirby; 18-09-2021 at 12:21. |

My hopes for the next few years:
2022 - KYE 21st anniversary reissue and tour 2023 - Album 15 (ideally in October so I can properly celebrate my 30 years as a Manics fan) 2024 - Lifeblood 20th anniversary reissue and tour 2025 - they can have time off (I will turn 50 so will probably need a break after four years of gallivanting round the country following their tours) A girl can dream! Meanwhile, right now is pretty amazing, isn’t it?

I am by no means musical and dont understand the specific complexities etc. Listening to the album and watching you tube clips from this tour i just want to say that i feel there is a confidence and ease with the guitar from james, loving the riffs and just watching him play (even the oldies) he seems so at peace and grounded with his playing.

Also………. there is so much breathing space and freedom in the songs.

Agree…… they should build on this occasion and get it out for Christmas whilst there is momentum, there are young people at my work who still only know design for life, tolerate and nothing else and then they don’t know it’s the manics!

Robert Plant only muttered about "Heritage Acts" out of spite. Manic Street Preachers have a better heritage than Led Zeppelin! And none of your Blues rip offs going on about how your baby won't think of your cock like a log. That's right... No rivalry with Steps. But Robert Plant didn't mention the band by name. Just "Heritage Acts" in an interview a few weeks ago. Oi! Plant! Don't fuck with the Manics mate! It's a family and trust in a band nobody other, me or you, could ever have experienced. |

I cannot believe the O2 gig was 10 years ago. Fucking hell.

St David's Hall? Some cool live? Searched youtube but didn't find... a link? I'm very much looking forward to seeing them live during this period. I hear they plan to play deep cuts and b sides too. Perfect sounding...

It's the radio 2 gig from the other day. I think it's only on the BBC iPlayer at the moment. Should end up on YouTube eventually
