I didn't know most of it, but it was good. No encore though, is that usual?

[gillworm]

that's a cool set list...yeah, no encore, except when they played in Cuba. as James says, 'once you've shot your load, anything more is just messy'...

[bravecaptain]

yeah, dictatorships need encores, don't they..

[discoRdance]

to be fair to the Manics; when you spend all your money going on a misguided trip based on dodgy political beliefs, you might as well do an encore while you're out there.

[Rich Left Side Brain]

God, the Manics make me even more angry than Oasis!

They've been shite since Design For Life. If they'd split up after Richie had disappeared, no-one would have ever guessed the supreme limitations of their musical ability.

I mean, songs about cleaning?! A greatest hits album?! I guess I wouldn't get so upset if I didn't love The Holy Bible so much.

The drumming has always been shite, mind. Sean Moore has one drum fill. And it's crap.
