Did they not do 'Public Image'? I'd have been a bit disappointed if I was there and they didn't perform that little nugget :rolleyes:

Johnny was on top form,with top notch band particularly guitarist Lu Edmonds. Great sound & venue,as always.
Loved the way Albatross became Seagulls for a bit,nice touch!

I'm glad someone has mentioned this; I thought I was hearing things.

No, my sister was disapointed with that...

According to people submitting set lits they have performed it 99 other times, Public Image Ltd. Concert Setlists | setlist.fm perhaps they were saving it and did'nt realise it was Herr Tubthumpers Birthday punk:

Gig was OK some of the songs are a bit too long IMO!

Sound...like a cricket bat the concord 2 has a sweet spot, stand to near the front and its too load, near the back and its too bassey, just in the middle and its OK, trouble is its packed!!

I thought they might start with "this is PIL" from the new album and finish with "public image" but hey ho!!

I am sure that was eagles and not seagulls though!!! :)

No, was at the front definatly Seagulls, aimed at a Brighton reference. Thought they were tight and Jonnys voice as powerfull and distintive as ever, mad when the roadies brought out water for everyone, and a bottle of cognac for Jonny, which he seemed to then swig and blow out his nose.
