Pre Show Songs
Hey, does anybody know some of the songs the manics play before they come on stage?
I'm guessing it changes every tour but anybody who can remember for the tour last October/November would be great! Or any tour for that matter!

I can remember and Oasis track and a Nirvana one but not sure which they were.

Cheers!

there was a song that i'm dying to know what it was, the singer had a voice that reminded me of joe walsh and i'm sure he mentioned 'pornography' but i could be wrong as it was that long ago. I know it doesn't give much to play with buy any help would be appreciated!
Pretty sure it was one or two songs after British Sea Power left the stage

They played Out Of Time by Blur and Can't Stand Me Now by The Libertines on the last tour.

They all began to grate after a little while.

Different music was played at Brixton though. And Son Of A Preacher Man by Dusty Springfield was in a pub quiz so I forgave it

Could swear it was ANCIANT in Birmingham. Anyone remember? Maybe they just used the whole of Low over the dates!
