2015 THB shows - the 'part 2' setlist

[Takk]

^ Yeah, although depends if they have anything new, lots of futurology hasn't been played

[mank]

I think they'd be best suited to swapping the sets around and finishing with THB set instead... it felt a bit odd to see something like You Stole The Sun after the frankly incredible first set.

Eh, 5/13... Rewind The Film is 3.5/12, Postcards 4/12, Lifeblood 4/12, Know Your Enemy 5/16..

Would be impressed if they had summat new to play by then, would love em to pull out Next Jet To Leave Moscow, Misguided Missile or Black Square but don't really fancy our chances.

[Frigating]

Ooh, I would love to hear Black Square live. And Misguided Missile would be amazing if played loud enough

EDIT: Bloody hell, I've only seen it 9 times out of 54. And 16 Die In The Summertimes.

Jeez, that's an awful lot of crawling sideways, and not very much flying and running.

Yeah.. Kevin Carter 16/54 and Autumnsong 20/54 for me.

Not noticed any tweets about rehearsals for a while, saw that one just after the last gig saying about Sorrow 16 and Comfort Comes for Cardiff, that'd be amazing if they brought both of those in. But if they do, what do they drop? Was surprised but not particularly bothered they dropped Your Love Alone.. Think for the second half there's only really You Love Us, Motorcycle Emptiness, A Design For Life and Tolerate that are proper certs.. Ah gonna be brilliant even if it is the "staples" of Kevin Carter etc.

Ask (or wonder, I suppose) and you shall receive, it would appear!

I wanna hear Slash N Burn on the 2nd part because as soon as the fucking intro starts I get this wave of 'I fucking LOVE this band'. Would be a nice 'out of THB mood' kinda thing. Oh, and there's a lot of stuff from LT I wanna hear SO bad. My ideal B side would really be Prologue to History. I watched them play it at the HMV thing & Glasto '99 on Youtube and James just sounds fucking amazing singing it.

I remember hearing Nicky say somewhere they keep getting offered 'loads' of money to play THB in full, and they did it eventually. I actually think it's probable because it's obviously a landmark for a new era of the Manics. And a good, good album .
