After due consultation with www.timeanddate.com (a wonderful friend to the mathematically challenged), it appears that the Manics are now in my very own time zone!

After due consultation with Shinysparkly, it appears doors open at 8 p.m., or about 40 mins from now. She says "decent sized queue"!

OK, Shinysparkly says her phone is about to go dead, so that's all from Team Wire. Thanks for all the help ladies!

Lament is in da house! Well, in the queue anyway. Doesn't seem to like Detroit much!

I feel like such a piece of sh*t asking again, but I have asked him to twt setlist in lieu of Shinysparkly. (Please don't hate me, please... *cries*)

That's a really good setlst, bit more variation than before, maybe they're getting more confident. Hope everyone who went had a great time.

Just as an FYI, both JDB & Nicky have now said they'll be back to the USA in a couple of years. Of course, we've heard that before.

HAHA! Somebody must have told James you'll be over there soon, so he's getting some practice in.

Small Black Flowers was on the actual setlist, but James threw Everlasting on there instead! Totally threw me off and now we'll need to edit our setlist before we frame it.

More coherency later. These two days have meant the world to me.

Still trying to piece together my thoughts and emotions from the last two days. I still can't believe it actually happened, but I do have photographic evidence to reassure myself.

I'm sure a few of you lot that I met last night are on here (Nashville in the house, yo), so cheers to you guys. Let's do this again sometime, eh?

I got my photos up (the ones that came out, anyway) on flickr:

He must have heard me in Belgium and has brought it back specifically to piss me off. He said, "And this is off our album, This Is My Truth...." and I rolled my eyes and went "Aaaaargh!" a little louder than I meant to.
