Would have liked to have seen the faces in the crowd drop when they played Sweet Child O'Mine. Although I'd rather they'd stick with It's So Easy as their GNR cover.

If anyone reading this is of a similar mindset: stay further back if you treasure your personal space that much. Standing tickets sold out before the seated tickets at tonight's gig, so you've really no excuse. If someone does bump into you, if you could avoid lashing out at them, that'd be grand. Someone probably bumped them into you.

On that note, on the off-chance that the girl in the red t-shirt is reading, I hope you were able to stick around for the rest of the gig. That horrible little gremlin he was with left soon after he was removed. You would've been okay.
Sorry to hear that there was some trouble down the front. Thought in general the crowd was really pleasant night. On a couple of occasions when there were gaps forming I asked people if they would mind if I moved forward and everyone was lovely and polite. In complete contrast to Birmingham where I was pushed out of spite 😂

Brilliant gig, and good to see them in a slightly smaller venue. Black Dog on My Shoulder sounded great live, especially the shift into the outro. No Surface All Feeling was also a highlight (has anyone mentioned that James is playing that intro riff again?)

Having seen previous setlists, I was hoping for From Despair... JDB started saying they were going to play someone else’s song “just for fun” - I was expecting Umbrella.
We got THIS!!
That was a treat, I was expecting Umbrella as well and confidently declared so to everyone around

Cracking gig.

I teared up too, it was just... I don't know. It hit me like a truck.

They honestly were in fantastic form!

Top man.

Please do identify yourself at the next Edinburgh / Glasgow gig. I think the least I can do is buy you a pint or two.

Thank you for the recording! I have snagged it!
I also found this yesterday! I think from the twitter replies about the tour Edinburgh was the best gig. I picked a good one. Knobhead from London had the best time
