| 26 June 2003 - Manchester, UK Concert Review |
|
Next time London
Great gig but not the best,certainly didnt live up to the previous gigs I've been to - Milton Keynes (2001) and Wembley (2000). Was rather dissappointed with the set list, it was predictable seeing as they had more or less done the same songs in the same order for the last few gigs.
I cant believe huge hits such as Bed of Roses, Always and lay your hands on Me were not included, what baffles me even more is the absence of a song from in my opinion their best album These Days, however in London 2 days later they did perform These Days.
This is the third gig I've been to and each time they have not done a song from These Days which is upsetting as it is a great album with so many good songs.
I dont know if the band read these reviews but I just hope for the next tour they do in the UK they will heed the fans requests.
However as I Manchester Utd fan seeing my fav Band at Old Trafford was a dream come true, but being a Londoner I think next time they are in the country I will see them in London as they certainly save the best for the greatest city in the UK
Thanx for a great show lads |
