I'm still buzzing from last night's brilliant show at Wembley.

3 hours, 31 tunes, great set list.

Anybody else go?

Yeah, i was there Mel, surprised i didn't see you!

Probably one of the best gig's i've ever been to - three hours, all of the good stuff, none of the self indulgent bollox. a D'arcy away from perfection...

Edit: Thought that Space Oddity and Stairway to heaven was unnecessary nonsense, mind...

I think it's the sixth time I've seen them in various guises, but easily the most enjoyable.
The Bowie and Zep covers were good, the Zero/Everlasting Gaze/Stand Inside Your Love segment was superb but I thought the highlight was Mayonaise and I didn't even try the catering.

Despite all my rage...…………..

Top band. Shame I've never seen them live.

If I want to be picky I would have dropped the cover of Landslide, sung by the girl from the support band I assume and the encore of a new song and a shiit one would have been better finishing with Geek USA.

I was working on TOTP's years ago and asked the Saffa security who was on?

' da da da Zwan..' (not quite what he said)
'Who the ferk are Zwan' I asked
'Remember the Smashing Pumpkins? That guy'
'Oh yeah' I said 'they were pretty good'

Turned around and Billy Corrigan was standing right behind me with a big grin on his face.

Wouldn't mind seeing them myself.

If I was being picky Pete, I would suggest it was Billy Corgan

Well you could have left at 9.30 then.
D'Arcy sounds like a nutter anyway, she hasn't even got nice Bristols..

I liked their second album a lot. After that they kind of went a bit too pretentious for me, or at least Billy did. That said, Bodies is their best song. Absolute banger that one.

I saw Idles last night at the Forum - first time I'd seen them, superb.
