HRC said they will announce running times and schedules nearer the time, so we will see what BJ are down to play then. If anything I wouldnt expect a longer concert than the rest of the tour, shorter if at all.

I should be PBP this one, although Im sure there will be plenty of others doing likewise.

Yes that is correct in the fact HRC aren't announcing the times until the week itself however they have also said on two occasions that they are playing for around 3 hours and most recently have said they will be on shortly after 7. This would explain why the supporting lineup is poor as they've paid them a load of money for the extended set.

I've just realised a flaw in my prediction. Ray Davies can't bring the band on stage for a duet and then they takeover because the instruments would need changing over. With that said I'm going to change my prediction to One Wild Night.

Well I can dream eh?

I have a terrible feeling they'll open with Prayer.

Whilst that would be a change from Lost Highway it would also be disapointing as they're guaranteed a huge response no matter where Prayer is in the set so as the opener it wastes a guaranteed response. Plus they can't do the a capella intro if it's the opener.

I just think One Wild Night would work well again although I'm liking the idea by ticos stick about London Calling. I think it could work. Whether or not Jon has the voice for it I don't know...

I had the same feeling last year at the O2 about DC and was happy about being wrong. Also never in a million years did i think i would hear lie to me in Bristol (or anywhere for that matter)

I think prayer will stay in the encore.

BoB will at some point be the opener again i think.

I think 60,000 is the capacity with it being a festival and 3 stages.
