That was fucking incredible. Big step up from last night. So good to see James back on form. Nicky looked to be in terrific spirits. I think I may have been going batshit insane to some tracks tonight. Eek.

James cracked a huge smile when he saw my white sailor top. He may have laughed.

Georgia Ruth was flippin' lovely! She kept making eye contact and also kept smiling/laughing.

I think, basically, that I either looked insanely hot or insanely stupid as a sailor. I'm guessing the latter.

Hm.

Anthem was nice, though it's my least favourite track on what is otherwise my second-favourite album. Dickhead behind me talked all the way through it though. And then through Motorcycle, Dreaming A City, You Stole The Sun, and my goddam beloved 1985. Prick.

Really good. Good to see Georgia Ruth on Divine Youth. 1st and 2nd set were best of the three gigs I've seen.

So good tonight. I was worried i'd end up in a shit spot cos i was going with a friend.. (being sociable is such a bore ) but it was fine, ended up 3rd/4th row for the first set and 2nd row for the second. Who needs queuing eh?

That was my 37th gig and definitely in my top 3. I've waited so long to hear Mausoleum live, I wasn't disappointed. The 1st half was the first time in so long I've heard them without keyboards or a backing guitarist, totally different sound, reminded me just how talented JDB is. Loved the second set too.

Think the touts over stretched themselves with tickets, I had a spare and couldn't give it away. They were selling them for £10 at the tube station, shame because they sold out so quickly I bet there were so many real fans who missed out. I hope the touts made a loss.

Loved it when James said "come on, we just played the holy bible. Like played intense humming of evil. Get the message" after he heard me shout for condemned to rock n roll. Awesome night.
I think I would have cried with happiness if they'd have played 'Condemned...'

A. What are the other gigs in the top 3?
B. I hope the touts found themselves on long bus rides home and all developed sudden and aggressive shits.
