Friday Brixton easily. Wolverhampton was pretty good too. Brighton has to go down as one of the worst Manics gigs I ever went to. Sadly.

First night at Brixton was my favourite, then probably Wolves, Cardiff, second Brixton gig and Brighton (which I was enjoying until I got threatened!)

For me it's Manchester.The atmosphere was really good that night and I remember me thinking that everything was much better than in Cardiff.

Barrowlands was the best night for me out of the 10 that I got to, everyone seemed to be singing every word to every song through the entire set and just about everyone was rat-arsed LOL.....Brixton 1st night was a great night especially due to the FEMALE company I had in the seats !!!!! and Manchester was another great night, just pissed off I got ill and had to miss 2nd Brixton....

I really didn't enjoy Cardiff, at ALL. Expected a lively crowd and a homecoming atmosphere, it was nothing like that. Band didn't seem into it either. That's the second dodgy gig i've seen them do at Cardiff Arena in a row, so not going to rush to go back. Brixton however, was EXCELLENT. One of their best shows for me, like the previous Brixton show they did in 2011. Not usually a fan of the venue as the sound can be a bit off for some gigs, but the Manics blasted it.
