 Because I'm in London doing recording next week, this tour has come at the worst time for me and I can't take more time off work. I only managed Bristol and Newport because Sim offered to give me a lift home. I was originally only doing Manchester!Quote:
 I took up too much time talking to him and there were a lot of people waiting for him!!Quote:

Great time yesterday, right in the front center so James in full sight.
Fans were really up for it, it was lovely though, my back and legs are hurting a lot still haha! Bad enough I had a cold so I couldn't barely stand anyway, singing a lot didn't help my sore throat either - worth it though! My mum's first gig after 20 years of waiting and she loved it so I'm happy for her! Revol, Rewind The Film, 30 Year War and Ready For Drowning definite highlights for me! Along with James during the acoustic set, really funny, the Sleepflower moment especially! Sadly didn't get to meet them afterwards, but still, a great night!

Very nice to meet some FD-ers yesterday, hello to Maria, Sandrine, Shug, Mr Marwood (who totally freaked me out with that "I know" when I introduced myself..) Had a great sleep in the queue and the gig was beautiful. Nicky has got all his sparkly gifts and a questionnaire and he was all "are you better now how is dance going" and there were cuddles and polaroids and life is pretty good right now. Oh and he loved our signs....

Ah, I'm soft as shit anyway Quote:
Fantastic gig, wasn't expecting Four Lonely Roads, thought Cate Le Bon had done all the gigs she was going to do. Think it was my favourite gig of the tour so far, James and Nicky were in fantastic spirits. Got the old Bunnymen story again, apparently Will Sergaent told James to fuck off. Was getting a bit bored of Everlasting acoustic but think it sounded brilliant last night. That tease of Tokyo Skyline was nice too. Loved the story about them supporting... Fat Cat? Whatever they said they were called, saying about how they'd taped their gig and somehow managed to tape the headliners slagging them off, something about them sounding like The Clash, Nicky wanting to be Simonen and James and Sean being midgets. Great night.

That just made me think 'Have I actually spoken to Rich at a gig yet?' I think I came close at Birmingham O2 that time!

The headliners who slagged them off on-tape were The Family Cat.
Great gig — I took a picture of the setlist: https://twitter.com/Dan_Zep/status/3...685763/photo/1

Ah that's it, Family Cat. Cheers. Love it when they talk about who they supported back back back in the day, wonder if Family Cat remember being supported and where they are now.

I spotted someone I thought looked like Sculpture Of A Bloke on zebra crossing outside, but you don't approach a random 6' + guy and ask him whether he's a sculpture! Or do you?
