New tour!

Yes is exciting, hopefully that stays in the setlist. I wish they'd drop LBN though, I do love the song but I feel like we've had it every gig for the last four years.

Setlist.fm is now saying International Blue and Motown Junk were also played after Your Love Alone.

Overall looks quite a nice hour long festival set. Fingers crossed Yes sticks around for a while.

Show how much different fans get things differently - the shows with Suede last summer were the first time I'd heard Little Baby Nothing since the National Treasures gig in 2011 - with fifteen shows without it in between (admittedly there were five full album shows and a couple of shorter support shows in there, but that's still a lot without it)

Christ, one track from the nine albums between TIMT and CT (hope HIPS won't be dropped from the setlist too soon, but it's a Wire track so odds are not good).

I guess it’s just chance, I’ve only seen them four times in the past four years and LBN was on the set list for three of those gigs. I thought it was at all four but I’ve just checked the set list for the Portsmouth 2021 gig and it was actually The Secret He Had Missed that night, so it’s not quite as omnipresent as I imagined.

Is there a pro stream? Just fan videos so far on YouTube.

Nice to see the LP custom, the blonde Eastman and the black LP custom.

Off to Norway to headline a festival on the 23rd August.

So I googled manic street preachers tour support 2025 and the AI overview came back with this:

The Manic Street Preachers will not have any support acts on their 2025 UK tour. The band will be promoting their new album, Critical Thinking, which was released on January 31, 2025.

I'm guessing this is bollocks and just AI overview getting confused between support not being announced yet and there not being any support... I note they've still got the wrong album release date!
