Last port on the subject - promise.

Urgent advice for anyone catching the dates - wait for the second
encore, as the house lights went up before the first and second, and the
delay was 15 minutes plus.

Oh - forgot what was the biggest surprise for me : "Hard On For Love".

>From the Glasgow reviews, it looks like the set changes pretty radically

from night to night too. Another downside - Carling Academy was
absolutely packed, and we spent three or four numbers dodging around a
group of 6'7"
permed mullets. The owner of at least one had a Paul Calf moustache,
too.
Ugh.

Just FYI:

If anyone has the slightest interest in Nick Cave, you really should
take whatever steps are necessary to see them on the latest batch of
dates (London tonight, Thursday & Friday), as I saw them on Monday in
Birmingham and they were absolutely superb! Long set, peppered with
welcome choices ("Your Funeral, My Trial", "Tupelo", "Straight To You",
"Papa Won't Leave You Henry", "Deanna", "Get Ready For Love", "Into My
Arms", "The Ship Song") and all the tracks you'd expect from the new
album. Finished with a killer "Stagger Lee". Droll banter, and he
totally fucked up the vocal pitch at the beginning of "Straight To You"
(although he's never been the most pitch perfect singer!), stopped the
song, apologised engagingly and got it right the second time.

It was good enough for me to hopefully be going again on Friday - only
downside was that travel problems meant I missed Barry Adamson's support
set.
