Yes I know. I was!

I know it's biologically impossible for you to say anything bad about them! It was all a but pale though. Very ordinary. Why are they so pleased with themselves for pulling balconies out now? Should have done it weeks ago.

Agree, it does rather take the piss they suddenly start mentioning playing other album tracks on the very last re-scheduled dates of this tour. Although a Tweet from Nicky doesn't necessarily mean they will actually play it on the night

But tbh I still don't regret selling my Brixton tickets...Billion Balconies doesn't do much for me anyway.

This is kinda frustrating. They go through their periods of predictablity, but now they're telling us how they're gonna be less predictable on Twitter. And the worst thing is, I'd love to ignore it but I know I won't resist.

"A Billion Balconies For Brixton" could be a new b-side.

I would definitely not put it past the Wire to forget it's on the album.

Well it's really only going to please those going to Brixton, well apart from those who take a great interest in gigs they aren't at

Two months too late.

Anyway, where's the 'hopefully' in this? You're the band, if you want to play it then play it!

As has been discussed about a million times on this forum, most people's gripe isn't even with those songs, but never mind

Well that's alright then. They'll probably always play Autumnsong as well.
