Great! What's the best way to go about this? I can PM you guys my phone number (I've got an American phone, fwiw -- so if there are out-of-towners coming in, maybe we could use Facebook or KakaoTalk to coordinate)...

Exopotamie, if you could PM either JD Manic or myself your number, that would be great, since our access to the internet is going to be sporadic once we get to Boston on Friday (aka, we'll only be able to get wifi if we're at someplace like a Starbucks or McDonalds - life without an actual smartphone!)

Seeing as the folks in the Webster Hall thread either can't read or are just incapable of answering a really simple question, could someone please tell me what time the band came on stage at? Was it 8:30 or 9? Also, what time did their set end? Much appreciation to anyone who can help. Cheers!

Doors are 7 pm in Toronto so they should be on by 9 probably. Cheers for the info, bud!

Great show! I got a really good spot near the front. Saw the band get out of a taxi in front of the venue at around 5 and Nicky waved and said hi. The whole set was amazing but Ifwhiteamerica was a standout for me and Die in the Summertime was unexpectedly fantastic (I love the song but I didn't expect the crowd to get into it as much as they did!).
I honestly couldn't have hoped for more. It was such a great night. Did people get to meet the band after? I wasn't able to stick around.

Hello to everyone here who I got to meet last night! (I was the gal with that pink bow in her hair.) What an amazing show. nsebastian, my husband and I bailed shortly after the show was over because we were exhausted and it was so damn cold out, but reports from others are that the band got into a taxi afterwards and as far as they knew, no one got to meet up with them. While we were standing in the queue (I forget what time this was) James did come walking down the street and up the Sinclair's steps. He stopped briefly to sign things for someone and then continued on into the building.
A link to some photos I posted on the American Manics Fans' Facebook page, I think they should be visible: https://www.facebook.com/groups/4305...1437391912395/

Hi all! It was so great to meet everyone and/or see some familiar faces again. Great show all around. We were right in the second or third row from the stage and had great views of both Nicky and James (and occasionally Sean, who was KILLING IT on the drums). James' voice sounded great, Nicky was smiling the whole time, and we even saw a smile or two from Sean. I was in the queue when James walked by (at which point the entire group went dead silent), but he was quite friendly and even signed some stuff on the way back in.
It was great to see Nicky rock the Archives of Pain bass line live, and even more wonderful to celebrate the band with so many of you amazing fans.

Went to three gigs on this USA tour. I so adored The Sinclair as it was such an intimate place Blackwood Miners Institute size. At the gig we were about 4 rows from the front such an amazing view. Manics seemed so happy to be in the USA and were so enjoying themselves. So many lovely friendly USA fans at the gig as well. Also a lovely Brit who was living in Denver who bought us drinks.
During the solo spot I pleaded with James to play Sullen Welsh Heart as it had been on the set list for Washington and New York and it was not played. I even added some Welsh to the plea which stunned James for a few minutes. James then said "We have someone from Wales here. Behave yourself leave Boston as you found it as you know what us Welsh are like." James had to restart Walk Me To The Bridge as he forgot the lyrics to amusement of Nicky and Sean. Nicky saying "Don't be too harsh on James as it is the fault of Richey and me for writing so many lyrics over so many years" Us fans helped him with the lyrics during the retake which was so sweet. The band did not come out to see the fans after the gig again. Nicky did wave to us in a white taxi as the band was leaving the venue and he also thanked us for coming which was lovely.
