Manchester Setlist

me too Thierry... only slightly better than w-ton. At least performance sounded a little stronger

i have my exam in 2 hours but i'll be setting off for london myself later - i'm still quietly optimistic and the band are scheduled to be on stage for 2 hours 45 ... hopefully we'll get that and a little longer

still it's my hometown though and so i'm upset i wasn't there

yeah 7:30-10:15....soudn sit could be a riot! i relaly hope so too, maybe they are saving the aces for hyde park...its been quiet hyped up by all parties so here i shoping ...i really wnated to get to manchester to mainly cos im a HUGE man utd fan, and seeing richie at old trafford would have been madness!!

I actualy found (as others did) that Jon's vocals were actually low in the mix... Obviously it's difficult to hear what he's singing in smething like Prayer, but when he was talking during the songs, i.e things the crowd coudln't sing along with, it was a strain to hear. I found that amazing actually, I'd have presumed if they were to get the vocals wrong, especially with the audiance, it would have been that they were too loud, not the other way!

Don't know what the hell you're talking about with Runaway. Only thing that would have made that rock more would have been 80's style screams from Jon, but for once the fact they weren't there didn't affect my enjoyement of the song one bit. They really shoujld be closing out with that song!!!! INSTEAD OF ****ING SHOUT!!!!!!!!!

Ok, seems like it was pretty similar to the Wolves show (set wise), except dropping I Got The Girl and having Lola on the encore.

BTW, you know how Jon introduces the band at the end of the show; well did Dave get introduced at Old Trafford? He wasn't at Wolves, only Hugh, Tico then Richie. What's the deal with that?

No he got an introduction, and as far as I remember he got one at Wolverhampton as well... can anybody varify?

he was the first to get introduced, then Huge, then Tico and then Richie

Oh right, , I'm confused now, how did I miss it? Must have been saying something to my mate? Ahh well!

You could have been saying "why isn't he introducing David" at the time...

Yes, I could have, but I said that after he introduced Richie.

I was more likely to be saying, "I can't believe they're ending the show with Shout still "
