This is my favourite things he's done in a long time.

He really should do a storyteller's type acoustic tour and play some rarities. (We don't need Faster acoustic ever again - remember the 2002 uproar!)

Ready for drowning was nice and this sullen welsh heart was a lovely surprise but if I never hear him bucher 'why design for a life' (sic) like that again it'll be too soon.

Great set list, would be nice to hear more songs in Welsh.

Definitely Cardiff Afterlife. I tried some lyrics in Google translate that were interesting in Welsh. I would like to hear them play Sepia and I always like how James puts lyrics in the music anyway.

So there was a Rough Trade Nicky Wire interview this evening. Anyone go? Anything said that stuck with you?

Anyone better this?

I can't, sorry. But from YouTube, Decline & Fall made the third most listened to song however. And the band themselves were third behind MGMT and Jimi Hendrix.
I'll be streaming the hell out of Critical Thinking when it goes up of course. That's my new target for 2024.

After the recent storm a lot of areas in South Wales are without power still. I'm reading of pub owners losing thousands of bookings.
I wonder if the band's rehearsals have been affected?
Hope anyone in South Wales here is ok.
