Super organised for Glastonbury, barely at all organised for any fucking thing else. Also idk how the rest of my package comes into it; getting loads of fibreoptic broadband on it, Netflix included, it's good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubenz Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Just had a look at the rest of the IOW bill. That Sunday one must be one of the most heinous lineups in modern times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutchmaster Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) Seen Arcade Fire tonight in Belfast. Pretty great gig, but they didn't blow me away. I expect Castlefield Bowl to be a much better venue/crowd. Can't remember the setlist because I've a head like a sieve, but they opened with Everything Now>>Haiti; Neon Bible & The Suburbs was played; finished the main set with Neighbourhood #3 (Power Out)>>Rebellion (Lies) and encored with Wake Up. Biggest exclusion was Tunnels, praying they play that at Castlefield Bowl! Edited June 13, 2017 by Johnkhutch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castlefield bowl will be 10000x better than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harmonic Prospector Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 It upsets me that Tunnels appears to have been demoted to a rotation in the setlist as it's such an important song in their live show. It appears Haiti has been promoted to the Funeral "Big 4". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bocumaroy Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Think Haiti has always been a set staple pretty much? Don't know how accurate it is but Setlist.fm has it as their fourth most played song. They're both in my top five but I'd rather they dropped Tunnels of the two because Regine only has that and Sprawl II as regular lead vocals. No It's Never Over is the biggest shame imo.

dentalplan Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I don't mind them playing with the inclusion of Tunnels. It's the no. 1 fan favourite but playing it every set means people are expecting it rather than hoping for it. They can't have that many undroppables off one old album as they're still a living, breathing, brilliant band so just the three is fine.

It'll be a crowd of dedicated fans who were lucky enough to get tickets in an instant sell out for what was at the time the band's only announced UK show (not counting IoW cos shite). It's gonna be electric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Liam Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Or, alternatively, it'll be a bunch of people who got tickets when they went on sale because it's a famous band who they know three songs by. Seen Arcade Fire in Manchester plenty of times, Academy 05, both nights at the Apollo in 07, MEN 07, G-Mex 10, MEN 11 etc. More times than not, talkers in the crowd utterly ruin it. Every time I've been to one of these Castlefield gigs it's full of nobs anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilduck Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 The in the round stage doesn't particularly help the crowd as you have fans spread out around all the barriers. At the corn exchange I was about 6 from the front and it was only really lively for a handful of songs. Also Haiti needs to stay in the setlist always.

Porcelina Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Just chipping in to say the IoW set was flippin' brilliant, fifth best of the nine times I've seen them. The crowd was a little bit flat but those who were fans got right down the front and made a proper gig of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
