My main complaint are the slow theatrical versions of Red Right Hand, Tupelo, etc. Those were good on tours in the 1990s but now it gets very repetitive. I'd prefer a 10 min Red Righ Hand to be replaced by two other songs.

Bright Horses is about the only decent track on Ghosteen

Galleon Ship is literally right there

I enjoyed the show in Cardiff, the WG tracks by and large worked well on stage. It did further emphasise to me that they are not Pyramid headliners. Much better a large-ish crowd of Cave heads at the Other than a bewildered and/or bored and dwindling audience at the Pyramid.

Couldn't agree more. An excited Other croud after dark would be perfect for all I think. I think up against a Pyramid pop act, they would be a big cross generational draw.

Galleon Ship is wonderfully beautiful. Night Raid is sensually mysterious. Bright Horses is about trains that never seem to turn up.

A first proper Grammy nomination for the Bad Seeds too. (Previously had only been cited for Best Music Film, I believe.)
