It sounds flat in comparison. Of course, I'm basing my opinion on a shitty fan vid from YouTube. In the flesh it may have sounded much better
I'd say Midlands_Junk has already succinctly cleared this one up, but you comparing a Youtube phone cam filmed version of Revol to the actual live performance is a bit like me seeing a small childs crayon etched drawing of Nina Persson and then saying, "she's actually not all that really is she?!"

I'm still buzzing from the gig on Saturday night and am currently chilly as fuck as I refuse to wear anything over the top of my new Suicide Alley photo t. I'll grow up one day...

Definitely. From up in the seats the venue felt like it was literally shaking during You Love Us. It was electric.

The only negative thing I can say about Sat night is that if there's not some sort of official live release to commemorate it then I will be fucking livid!

Looking back definitely the most random fun I've ever had at a Manics gig, I'm not used to being that far back at a gig, but it was an ickle bit like a party, like a manics school disco perhaps with lots of alcohol

Hardly! they can sliiiiide on- we were clean amazing. At least we probably kept them entertained during the shit songs, the manics should have been paying us! I've never enjoyed Autumnsong so much in my life!!!! Aye i think I mind getting emotional a few wee times, i was shocked that I hadn't cried vodka induced tears by the end of it!
