I'm still a bit suprised that their live return to the UK isn't another extended O2 gig... Go on Manics, it'll make my Christmas!

Good god no... I don't think any of us would survive another one! Now a Tokyo two-parter, maybe...

They did the hits in 2002 the FDT & NT was a 1 off, I can't see another Singles night for sometime

I wouldn't go if it happened again so soon as what difference would it make?

I wasn't specifically thinking of the singles setlist. Just *a* big gig

Excellent. But how do they combat the higher-than-average levels of shyness and social anxiety in a Manics crowd? Oh wait, suddenly I'm imagining Sean standing on stage with a rifle while Nicky orders us all into couples

Nicky would relish taking on the Cilla Black role in a Blind Date type set-up.

I like marwood's idea... A bit like the moonies, where people are just randomly put into couples and then James can marry us off like a Hollywood Elvis.

I think it's a solid plan for the next 'great phase' of the Manics - a compulsory eugenics program at their gigs, ensuring a future generation of Manics fans.
