Another top performance in Manchester, bit of an oddly midpaced first half of the set (still with a lot of great songs that I was happy to see though), but the pace definitely picked up in the second half, especially in the encores. And finally, on my third time of seeing the band live, they finally played Black for me And I was transported into a world of sheer delight, especially when Eddie adlibbed the "Did we belong together" part at the end, with the entire crowd singing the outro. Magical.

As a whole show I'm not sure it quite beat London 2007, which is currently my favourite gig ever, but still damn good. Here's hoping they come back to Europe next year!

Set 1

* Long Road
* Last Exit
* Why Go
* All Night
* The Fixer
* Low Light
* In Hiding
* World Wide Suicide
* Not For You(Modern Girl)
* Even Flow
* Present Tense
* Save You
* Grievance
* Sleight Of Hand
* Got Some
* Given To Fly
* Rearviewmirror

Encore 1

* Go
* Daughter
* Do The Evolution
* Alive

Encore 2

* Smile
* Black
* Leash
* The Real Me
* Indifference

I'm not so convinced about this setlist either, though it seems better than the one they had over here. But glad you enjoyed yourself, Paul. What do you think of their new stuff, by the way?

I've only heard The Fixer and Got Some, trying to leave most of the album as a surprise! Got Some seems pretty good, I'm not sure about The Fixer yet, need to listen to it more I think. The album so far sounds like it's pretty much gonna be a sequel to the self-titled, which was a great album IMO, so that may or may not be a good thing. We'll have to see!

I've heard 3 songs now and Got Some definitely is the best of those. I really hate The Fixer and it made me doubt (and fear) whether they'll be anywhere close to their self-titled.
