That's my total highlight. Cowbell, plus Sean and Wayne making each other crack-up and deliberately fucking up the words... Hilarious.

I'd rather hear Sean Read than Wayne sing to be honest, although it would be better if they turn off their mics altogether. Having said that, Naysmith/smyth was a lot worse as a backing vocalist. All of this sounds strange because the backing vocals on JDB's solo tour were actually good! Maybe they just need James Chant in that case....

Now I would love to see Chanty with the Manics. Such a great voice.

The only time I haven't been bored to tears during an Ocean Spray is last tour when James played it acoustically with Sean Read on trumpet. Only time. Only. It's no Everlasting though. It's boring but it's not outright shit.

If you like Ocean Spray then trust me, it wouldn't even have started.

Bet some tracks sound weird without him. Apart from Slash N Burn, his vocals and contributions are spot on. Hope he's there when I next see them.

You Stole the Sun sounds brilliant with Sean's keyboards.

No trumpet att all. James can play anything on his guitar, even a trumpet-solo.

Yes Saxy is on tour with Dexys, I think it's a temporary thing but I will check with him.

A gig without Saxy is like a day without sunshine
