I last saw him when I was a teenager at Bellevue, Manchester in 1978 - Blondes Have More Fun Tour. I would take a chance on seeing him again for old times sake! 😂 

Slightly twisted logic? The only people stopping you getting tickets were people in front of you in the queue that were actually buying tickets - anyone not buying tickets had zero effect on your chances... I'll be delighted if everyone in front of me in the queue on Sunday is just browsing!   From my own experience, and from reading the experience of others, far from being snarled up, technically the new system worked pretty flawlessly (and yes, I was trying to get tickets, and no, I didn't get any). Roll on Sunday! 

@Alvoram after listening to the album, cut the bridge is the only other song for me that is really worth it and it's by quite a distance. I would give NMEs review of 3* 3.5 if I'm really being generous.   It's better overall probably that their last 4 albums but I could take certain tracks out of their last 4 that I really like. The Catalyst, Guilty All The Same, Burn it down just about and Castle of glass also just. Someone haven't aged well. M2M was probably their last decent album.   Their sales show that trajectory too. The only reason I think One More Light did better was because of it's significance.

He has links to O-Rod as well. She covered his best known song (Stick Season) in the R1 live lounge and subsequently brought him out to sing it together at one of her gigs. He returned the favour by covering “Lacy” when he was in the R1 live lounge.
