'Secret' Gig at Hammersmith Apollo Tonight

I know that none of you can go, but just in case any of you were interested, they're playing a 'secret' show at Hammersmith Apollo tonight for HMV employees.

Aw what are they doing down there? Couldn't they do Hull Adelphi instead? I might get there mid-way through the set if I leave now...

Unfortunately I'm not, but my pal is.
He doesn't really know much of their stuff but I will ask him anyway just in case he manages to grab a setlist.

Cheers...got a couple of potential sources so maybe we will find out their set...

It's a bit much to cancel a tour date for this isn't it? Wonder what hmv did in return .

Does anyone know if it's that this was hastily arranged to replace Carlisle because of some problems on that end, or if this is the reason they've rearranged it? I hope it's not the latter, that'd be shit. There are probably people on here who've bought train tickets and booked hotels and stuff.

All I know is that there are other acts playing too but the Manics are the headline act.
I think it's an annual thing for HMV employees but I have no idea how far in advance the manics were booked or anything.
