Almost as good as Cambridge, but to my mind the set-list was a bit wonky -
opening with Siver Wands; the kitsch Reptile so soon after; and I've always
thought that Evil Guy is a bit of a weak song. And is this the fewest
number of UM tracks they've played on tour? Having said all that the power
of certain stretches and the two superb encores more than made up for the
weak points. And they played Leppo. Yippeee. Now if they'd only segue from
Train Round the Bend into Mystery Train I'd be very happy indeed!
