Did they? Missed that. Obvs me top three didn't get a look in, just like last time. Won't take it personally though

Yeah it was 8. Singles and Golden Platitudes almost staples, Hazelton in and out of the set, Descent dropped early on, Future after laryingtis and Billion Balconies for the rescheduled Brixtons.

I like that the new songs were pretty much fixed for this tour. Better to swap out the older songs. 6 songs is fine by me

I just feel like in the run up to release, Resistance Is Futile was more heavily promoted than the last few albums which is why I'm surprised how little of the album has been played. Can't remember quote or interview off the top of my head but they said somewhere about it being basically an album full of singles? Ah well, see if owt comes out for festival season eh?

In the future I can see International Blue being a standard in setlists. Which isn’t really a given, since on the tour there was only one performance of a song from Rewind The Film, one each night for Futurology and SATT, plus PFAYM was ignored completely. They do have a hell of a lot of songs to fit in now.
