Have to say that Wild God has really grown on me.

Saw him in Budapest, it was the best of the new songs live. Final Rescue Attempt was great also

Heard Final Rescue Attempt has been tried in a few different versions, so curious to see if it has stuck now.

Come on, no-one can surely have polished that absolute turd of a verse in their own minds.

You never know. One man's turd is another man's nugget.

I'll be there! I saw him there on the Skeleton Tree tour and it was great, so no fears about the venue here. Hopefully the security isn't too tight to get in as I'll be smuggling rum in my undies. 

 

Really, really REALLY hoping he plays every Wild God song. I've avoided all YouTube clips but I'm certain they'll be sensational live. 

 

 

Ooh rum. Good shout! I absolutely love the whole album!

[NorthernSoul52]

Never needed to think about rum in underpants, but there we go, I guess.

 Love that song, and the meaning of the song is very moving. 

 

Susie riding through the rain to rescue him from... something. Wonderful stuff.

 

I also love Long Dark Night. Hopefully that's just played the same as the album. 

 

I really cannot wait for this gig. 

 

Hopefully the 'hits' - into my arms, red right hand, weeping song etc - are kept to a minimum. But i know he has to placate the part timers.

Anyone else going to O2 next Friday? I hate o2, feels like the food hall in a shopping centre but just had to see him

Couple of us also going - cannot wait & first time back the O2 since seeing Prince there about 16/17 years ago!

 

However just seen the news about the tube strike which is an arse - anyone taken the boat there in the past (from Waterloo direction). I assume it will be rammed and they have said to book in advance

They seem to be always striking.

Thanks for the heads up. I have booked the boat from embankment and they offer a boat after the gig back which i have booked. Not what I wanted to spend but actually might be a lovely journey to and from
