I hope for every Manics fan that is played, absolutely love that song.

Yes! Nixon would be fabulous! (Just save it for Birmingham, ta!)

Waiting on litte miss day of the dead to apply her face and then we're gig bound. I've had a nice Sunday afternoon nap while everyone else has been in the queue.

Oh and "Ba humbug, Halloween" and such.

I would buy everyone in the venue a drink if they played Nixon at Brum (and if I end up going obviously!)*

*the drink will be a glass of tap water

Nixon would go down even worse than Empty Souls, it'd be a disaster.

MSPKYE · #96 31-10-2010, 18:32

Yeah it was shit enough in 2004, much better songs off Lifeblood that should get an airing. I Live To Fall Asleep would be kind on the voice.

I don't think so, non-hadcore fans actually seem to remember Nixon was a single

hummingbird · #98 31-10-2010, 18:34

so was empty souls and that was a better song

I know, I'm just ripping the piss in favour of protecting the second best Manics single ever!

Yeah, I think Lifeblood is a decent album, but Nixon is probably one of the most standout songs I've ever heard. I am not afraid of being seen as a lunatic.

They could just do an entire setlist of Nicky vocals. Open with Ballad of the Bangkok Novotel.

I would actually like this, all of his solo album and b-sides as an after gig party is actually a dream of mine.

James really nervous apparently so everyone going chant *we love you James we do* or something while u wait ok?

It'd hardly inspire a reaction though. Like alot of songs, good or bad, it'd be a total non-event.

I don't really care how a crowd reacts. If they don't like it then fuck 'em.

One of the things that I prefer about them doing more gigs but at smaller venues is that you get less idiots there just for ADFL.

My favourite idiotic comment by a part-timer was at one of the JFPL tour gigs where once they'd finished playing JFPL someone commented 'and now the gig really starts'.

I and a lot of people would be more than happy to hear some different songs while James' voice recovers or even Nicky singing some of his solo stuff.
