New Art Riot was awesome. Really awesome. Funny to have Nick N back on keyboards too, though he's no Readie.
Awesome! Enjoy Japan & have a safe trip back!

It sounds awesome and you really described it so vividly and enthusiastically.

Eek so jealous!! Sounds like it was amazing... just watching vids trying to pretend I was there haha.

How in the world would anyone have been able to decide to go to just one of these gigs? Especially as there turned out to be no logic to the song split... Imagine you just went to day 1 and missed PCP/NAR or just day 2 and missed Further Away and Suicide Alley?!!

I can only find PCP, New Art Riot and Let Gruff Sing on YouTube. Conveniently, they were the only ones I wanted to watch. Someone out there knows how to go about their Manics fandom like a pro.

It's definitely of the imperative that Autumnsong is captured on camera yes, so rarely played.

Beginning of New Art Riot was amazing, and even better that they played it as a three piece. At the opening riff James went mental and started running round the stage; he clearly loved playing it again, and it sounded ace.

It's been 18 years since they last played it. I'd always hoped they'd pull it out again. Hopefully it'll make its way into a UK set.

For some strange reason I think this National Treasures Tour made them believe that underplayed songs aren't really unpopular (as they used to think). It seems like they enjoyed TBTGOG, Nixon, Revol. Which is a good thing!

Just watched PCP there. Well done to the crowd! Clapped for the whole duration of the song... That takes some stamina!
