No it's not.

It's a trick question.

I'd be gobsmacked if the code is unique.

It doesn't say the code but it says the link is? I'm not clicking it to check and losing the privilege though.

A clue - Regine is the lead singer.

I'm gonna have to go with Sprawl II then, although I maintain that Suburban War is better

But they told her to stop.

Do you need a code too?

 

You're completely wrong, obviously.  I'm not even sure if it's in the top 5.  Not as good as Month Of May for instance, the very next song.

I hope one day they decide to turn the synths up live and do that song properly.  Both in the MEN arena and on the Pyramid, an utterly disappointing rendition.  The synthesizers  should be right, right up front and central, but I guess the band didn't want to be buried in the mix underneath a couple of machines.

Half Light II isn't just the best song on The Suburbs, but in contention for their best song ever.

You've accidentally written "Half Light" rather than "Sprawl" there.

[Mash011]

It's a generic code with a unique URL I think. So you need the specific URL from the email from the looks of it.

Loved it at Glastonbury. Mostly because of Regine's radiant joy though. Impossible not to smile throughout.

Very close second for me. it absolutely needs more inclusion in setlists.

Anyone need the link & code?

Pains me greatly to not be able to make this!

Now we're talking. It's the one thing that pisses me off about their live shows is that song. The synths are absolutely buried in the mix, when they should be front and centre. 

[the wonderwhy]

Yeah Half Light II is criminally underrated 

[dentalplan]

It's the song that makes me wonder why I don't like U2.

So then I listen to Vertigo and it all makes sense again.

[Hutchmaster]

Half Light I into Half Light II is the absolute peak of a great album in my humble opinion!

Anyone else only seeing wheelchair tickets when they click on the link?  Was showing GA tickets this morning.  Hopefully it updates before 12.

Yep, same here.

[dentalplan]

Btw it probably pays to sign up for an account on Gigs and Tours if you haven't one, and add payment method and addresses.

Good thinking Batman!

Does anyone know how close the venue is to a train station by the way? Could I realistically get the last train back to Liverpool at 23.27 or would it be an AirBnB job for the night?

[Hugh Jass]

Deansgate is pretty much next door. Think the trains to Liverpool stop there.
