Anyone who missed it, they are both repeated on NYD at 9pm.

Wembley first, followed by To The End

The documentary is great but does Damon seem a little… ‘broken’? Not sure that’s the right word but just feels like he could do with some support. The line about middle-aged men not talking about their feelings seemed revealing.

As a middle aged man myself he just seemed like a, well, a middle aged man.

At the time of recording the last album he had just split up with his partner of 25 years -  (gives a new emotion to songs like The Heights but echo through the whole album).

They all opened up to their issues that’s for sure. The unexpected shot of Damon crying was a shocking moment. Overall it’s prompted me to explore their music again, particularly the 13 and self-titled albums which I always rated.

they are my favourite two -  I havent managed to catch the documentary yet though I need to catch it - 

 

Songs like Strange News From Another Star, Caramel, Death Of A Party & Trimm Trabb are underated Genius
