British Sea Power as support, because i love them and if they had not been the support, I might have held out for an Irish date that never came.
Postcards being a hell of a lot better than i was expecting, despite it not even nearly touching Journals greatness. And boring sets aside, the band still being in great form live. Meeting all those very friendly, cool as fuck manics fans in London. EDIT: In a moment of madness i forgot to mention FD, which deserves a mention as it's a constant source of entertainment, as well as providing us all with news about the band etc. So thank you and good luck to the kind people involved in running this place.

Mosh pit at Cambridge Corn Exchange for me.
Being intoxicated on alcohol and screaming at James "I fucking love you ya Welsh cunt". James laughing at me after screaming this. Best night of my life. Love the album. The Mass Communication. Fucking brilliant year.

 Must give a mention to the best gig moment for me, which has got to be James singing the guitar solo during Motorcycle Emptiness at Edinburgh!

Winning tickets to the Hard Rock Cafe gig, even though it was postponed.
Getting VERY excited when the tour was announced and immediately buying tickets for Brixton only for it to be postponed. Joining FD, which has been a good experience! Trekking round Wales to visit Manics (and Doctor Who and Torchwood) spots Finding the Mitch Ikeda photo book thing cheap in a second hand bookshop back in February. Finally meeting other Manics fans through twitter/facebook/FD (though I'm yet to meet another fan in real life). Attempting to stalk my mum's work colleague who apparently used to go to parties with JDB and Nicky when he lived in Wales (and failing). The new album! I liked it  Also, downloading 'I Know The Numbers', new favourite song!

- Seeing the Manics in Lincoln
- Meeting other fans and queuing along with some cool people - Building my collection of Manics magazines from our Oxfam shop - Buying the stickers from the merchandise stall and giving my Lag a Manics makeover. - Taking my patches off my Nicky Wire jacket and putting them on a Military jacket with 'La Tristesse Durera' spray painted on the back. - A man in Scarborough saw my jacket and started talking to me about how he has followed them since 1991 and he has a EMG bowling bag! Of which only 30 exist....weird. - Hearing 'Stay Beautiful' as an acoustic live - Having the chance to see Nicky attempt to cook!
