I know it would take ages to bring this to life, but setlists should be coloured, for example
blue - typical, sometimes boring song
green - often appears on the setlist
orange - unusual
red - OH MY GOD WHAT A SUPRISE (reserved for mainly THB and LB songs)

just a silly idea of a bored mind.

Great idea Deets. BUT...people just wouldn't agree. People moan enough about setlists, but then to colour-code them...lawks! The arguments!

The song makes me want to go to the loo whether at a gig or not. It has a laxative effect on the bowels.

My fear is that some of these songs we haven't heard in a while (of walking abortion, solitude etc) may be dumped for the often rugby boy-friendly crowd Cardiff offers and replaced with some of the more "radio friendly hits" shall we say?

he hardly ever wears skirts nowadays, only for special events like London gigs in January and probably Blackwood but not 100% sure. lack of pictures etc

No miniskirts if you're over 35. Well, the micro-minis anyway.

If only! I wish he'd realise that still badly putting on makeup and stickers on his face looks pathetic. He could get away with it up until his twenties but it looks crap now. He needs to stop or have some makeup lessons.
