Hi Rocker

You're not the first to bring this up so I thought I'd should chip in...

I've heard the recording of the whole gig. There are 7 songs which we're cut from Skyscrapers, 5 of which were due to a very out of tune guitar which was particularly prominent in the mix. I realise live albums often suffer from this kind of thing but I can assure you the recordings of those particular songs would only lower the standard of what is otherwise a great quality live album. The other 2 are "25 Kind Of Love" (which will be on the new album and is a possible future single so we'd rather keep it back for now) and Jacket Hangs which is on the Live In Cheltenham album. Gerard wants to release a series of 4 or 5 live albums without repeating a single track on any of them. It could make for an interesting potential box-set one day...

One other thing...

Last year's Thunderbolt gig was on a Sunday and although it didn't sell out it was pretty full. This year it's a Saturday and as the venue only holds about 120 it is likely to sell out. I just thought I'd mention it now as people have started buying tickets already.

Cheers

Chris

OK slap me down if this has already been discussed...

Have just listened to my copy of "Skyscrapers" Live Fiddlers Dec 2007 CD - Is great! Really good quality for what sounds like straight off the mixing desk - and that version of "Police" is the best I've heard them do for years - and I still remember the look on Angelo's face when everyone else came in in a different key to his intro to "Breakin...".

However listening to it I have a nagging feeling of incompleteness - surely the set was longer than that, for example I'm sure they played "...and stones", and did more than one encore?

Does anyone have the original setlist?

Cheers!

Rocker
