[kj] Forum Gig

[Nick Scott]

Adrian...pretty much common sense really that as it was predominantly a
"Singles" tour there would only be 1 or 2 songs from recent albums...why
they chose to play "This World Hell" and not "Ghosts Of Ladbroke Grove" or
"In Excelsis from "Absolute Dissent" I do not know, but it was doubtful
they were going to be doing another MMXII setlist!.  The band soon dropped
"In Cythera" from that tour because they were not happy with the live
sound....so that really leaves just "Corporate Elect".

Screen for me didn't take away any of the "drama", I was just pissed off
the band didn't play longer and refused like the last time they played at
the forum to come back out again for a second encore.

If anything with another new album on the horizon, Jaz looking healthier
 than ever, and vocally sounding brilliant, with the band looking in good
spirits I don't personally feel its time for them to give it up.

Rejuvenate the set a bit and play longer like bands like "The Cure" to
appease the ever increasing back catalogue maybe.

Surely you cannot have been disappointed to have heard "The Beautiful Dead"
back in the set at least?
