Then I got an email telling me that due to low sales, I could get tickets to any of the three nights for 23 quid.

I got first and last. I brought a friend along to the last night, all sound problems had been sorted out, the sound was heavenly.

They played four of the five tunes from this album. Plus Starless, Cirkus, Lizard, Pictures of A City, The Letter, Islands, Easy Money, as well as some newer stuff - Discipline, Indiscipline, and several unrecorded tunes.

My friend still thanks me regularly.


oh wowwwwww


Nice!
