She's got to be careful with what she says really. If she echoed your thoughts on the man before the watershed she'd be in trouble...

Being a T4 present I think if she showed even the ability of thought she'd be in trouble.

Just watched the iTunes Festival for the first time and I thought James' voice was amazing as usual. Only time James has struggled live since I have been watching The Manics was when he had laryngitis which was undertandable. A lot of members of here moaned about the crowd at Blackwood, well incomparison Blackwood was lively compared the iTunes Festival. A lot of the audience seemed to be just trying to get their faces on camera. That look when they realised they were on camera made me laugh

Agreed, iTunes made Blackwood feel like the Astoria in 1994.

I take consolation in the fact that Brixton night 2 was one of their best gigs ever.

Perfectly put wish I had your creative edge with words

I also enjoyed the Brixton first night. Also the Roundhouse gigs think in 2009 were great as well

Yes! The one Roundhouse gig I went to was up until Brixton my favourite... probably now joint favourite! Looks like we've been to a few of the same gigs, haha I have warm memories of Move 2003 :-)

It was OK but again, a little dead. One woman reacted angrily to me being pushed into her which almost ruined the whole thing for me. Competition winners, friends and family... unusual atmosphere!

It was very intimate gig thats why I liked it. Sorry to hear about your evening being almost ruined by a push. Two late drunk girls annoyed me by pushing past everyone and then talking through most of the gig. There was still a hardcore of loyal Manics fans at Blackwood just like the iTunes Festival.

Oh yeah, all in all I'm still obviously happy I went and had the opportunity of seeing them with a tiny crowd in a village hall!

As for iTunes, well I got more than what I paid for it
