For those who need the 'fix' of a set list, it was the same as Nottingham, at first a little disappointed ut then I realsied that if it is different we don't get "You Meant It Then" (massive backing vocal - strain it out Charlie) and "On Causewayside" - so no disappontment.

I love hearing the same songs live more than once. I not very adept musically, and I can't take it all in at once. I notice different things each time, they change things up a bit each time - watch Stevie throw in some surprises every gig.

I was going to mention this point when I wrote about Birmingham but time...

I have noticed that you get an entirely different 'gig' experience depending on where you sit/stand. Nottingham we had the full vista, you can see all that is going on being central. I hinted at it on Warwick but being in front of Zac gave me a great view of his mini-performance and being right in front of Charlie and Stevie in this one gave me an entirely different focus. Instead of watching Craig the view was more Charlie and this was no disappointment as my belief is that he makes "You Meant It Then" in to the masterpeice I believe it to be. In the background Stevie is also giving his own little performance, you can almost detect a note of panic as he has to swap the accordian out for the next part... Didn't get any of the lollies though...:)

More later
