Surely it all depends on what Nicky Wire is wearing. If he continues wearing the same outfit throughout a lengthy tour things are bound to get boring. Come on Wire, vary your wardrobe a bit! And that sailor's hat needs to be pensioned off now.

Time to bring back a few old favourites? James's green KYE shirt was pretty cool.

Nicky's see-through camouflage dress...

Really as a 31 year old male I shouldn't be saying that.

These may well be the infamous 'The Holy Bible' gigs they said they'd never do.

Dare you not buy a ticket?

The dates will be in the May 2-20 range, when I have to be at work. Busiest time of year.

Yeah it only looked good when he was off stage. Under arm and chest sweat patches don't look good.

I've always thought James looks best in the dark shirt/jacket combo. Looks classy and offsets whatever daft shit Wire is wearing.

Plus black is a very forgiving colour in many respects.

Or the Welsh flag skirt with the leopard print tights. They're bringing some of the classics back to the setlist, why not some of the classic Wire ensembles too?

Right come oooon, I need to know what I'm doing

(I'll be missing this one out for sure if there's no Scottish dates, anyway. All my exams are in May and although they don't really matter this year and I'd drop everything for a wee trip to Germany or Holland, I'm going to be a wee bit skint to be going anywhere. )

You could replace the traditional JDB solo spot with a Wire fashion parade.

Or just a wire fashion parade whilst JDB plays. Maybe a strip show? I've gone too far...

Hey, if it worked for the Spice Girls...

I'll take a Nicky solo spot too. Who wouldn't want to hear Casual/Glam performed live!
