i'll concede that the middle section slumps EVER so slightly, but the first and last sections contain a good a show (musically, theatrically, yadda yadda) as you'll ever see

gotta agree with you there it really was a personal show for us with the lips. Saw the pixies at teh same venue a while back and never thought i would hear a crowd as loud, but everything was just right tonight and the volume from the audience was mind blowing loved every second.
i had high expectations for this and it blew them all away. still grinning now

That looks like wonderful fun.

Hopefully I'll get to see 'em live one of these days... *sigh*

(-I can never quite work out how Wayne gets into/out of that ball. Is there a zip or something? Does it take him long? )

"nice"...Wolfie is the master of understatement!

 

[Wolfie]

oh and mwgdrwg did you notice the drummer's t-shirt?

 

[Dubversion]

you see, we deliberately didn't go to the ALbert Hall because we thought the show would be better in a normal venue.

did we get Wayne in his ball in Birmingham? no we fucking didn't

 

[Dubversion]

oh and mwgdrwg did you notice the drummer's t-shirt?

suppose these songs work best with the fabbo show though

 

[mwgdrwg]

'Course I did.

Also, did you hear the Super Furry Animals' 'Psyclone!' with new lyrics as they came on. Went something like "Its. The. Flaming Lips...from Okla-homa" (at least that's what the lyrics were in my head).

 

[mwgdrwg]

Yep. For example, the yyy song was so much better live...with the crowd doing the yeah yeah yeah's before the song kicked off proper.

jesus it was amazing, very uplifting and personal as evildacat said

just a mad mad mad time, visuals, balloons, volume, WOW!

did everyone else find the camera below the mic projecting Wayne's (and the nun puppet) onto the back screen scary as fuck?

*awaits film of the tour*
