I think they might be some subtle changes tonight. Maybe 3 or 4 songs.

The Anchoress is supporting isn't she? I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up duetting on a couple - Your Love Alone is already in the set, but wouldn't surprise me if something else like Little Baby Nothing appears for her.

Brushstrokes back in the set. LBN for Walk Me To The Bridge and RFD for TSWH in the acoustic section.

Nothing else from the new album unfortunately.

Look away spoiler click back on reading this. Saw setlist photo on Facebook FD. Astonishing acoustic change and in Welsh of Ready For Drowning!
Like NASA we need video signals in the coming days to calibrate initial glance at set list.
Still playing Dear Stephen.
Hope those here who went return to read this and can hopefully take it from here.

Ok just saw setlist.

The setlist for this tour makes sense - a good selection of hits and fan favourites. But that doesn't also mean it's a bit boring.

They could easily - EASILY - leave off Motorcycle and that would get you two other songs (god forbid even two new songs!).

Also, Enola, La Tristesse, The Everlasting, Autumnsong, and International Blue are all debatable and rotatable. (I'd also add YSTS to that, but that is clearly - CLEARLY - James' favourite Manics song)

I was particularly looking forward to This sullen Welsh heart so of course they swapped it out. Nice to hear the semi Welsh language version of Ready for drowning but why did we have to choose? Change small black flowers instead!

Maybe they reached a compromise with You love us

I was very happy with the setlist tonight. Genuinely surprised by some choices (I hadn't seen the setlist from the previous nights). Gutted to not get Australia like they did in Glasgow.


I do wish they wouldn't end with 'Tolerate...', though.

Everyone will know what my thoughts are on the setlist. I'm going to hold my tongue and hope they change it up by the time I see them in Wolverhampton next week but I know there is very little chance of that happening.

I loved it. So thrilled to hear Ready For Drowning, a genuine surprise! Feels like ages since I’ve heard The Everlasting too. And also thrilled and surprised that Autumnsong is back in the set, I genuinely love that song.

Wish there was at least one song from TUVL but overall I had a blast. Bring on night two!

I was up in the semi nose bleeds and sitting among

Still cant get used to ADFL not being the show closer
