Brilliant gig as usual, Mr Sullivans nasty cold notwithstanding. Some interesting chat between songs - really?  you don't have Trumps phone number  ;D. Despite only arriving with only 5 minutes to spare we somehow managed to get the best seats in the house, dead centre front row !!!  :o

plus Marrakesh and Changing Of The Light in there somewhere too  :)

Have to say it was absolutely lovely being at one of these accoustic type gigs without some bunch of self-important nodricks chattering on and spoiling other peoples enjoyment. Big respect and thanks to the German fans for that - put the English to shame there  :-*

Lovely setlist, jealous that I wasn't there!

As to the 'chattering' comment... couldn't agree more.  Nottingham last December was just embarrassing, the utter disdain that so many so-called 'fans' have for the band...   ::)

I couldn't agree more. It was a great gig, maybe even better than the one on Friday. Even though the first night was sold out, the atmosphere was better on Saturday.

Initially, we only had tickets for the first show, but as we enjoyed it so much, and there were still tickets left, we bought us some after the concert. Justin stuck to his promise and had a completely different setlist on the next day. Maybe only five or six songs were played on both nights. So we got our extra big fix of NMA songs in stunning acoustic versions. And even though Mr Sullivan had a really bad cold on both nights, he was in a very good and chatty mood, telling a lot of stories about inspirations to the songs.

Towards the end of Friday's gig, someone from the audience was asking for Family Life, to which Justin replied, he didn't do requests, unless he himself would really like to play that song anyway. He also told him to come back the next day. So on Saturday he asked if the guy was present again, which he was, and granted him his wish.  :)

I don't have the setlist from Friday, but it was similar to the previous gigs, with some variantions in the encore.

Btw, Anna, I think I asked you or your friend if I could take a picture of the setlist after the concert.  ;)

That's because we already knew about Mr Sullivan's cold.  ;D

I sat in the row behind you.  :)
