      Thanks for the welcome and recommendations. As you all point out, I've not dug into the older material much – just the tracks that are being played this tour. I'm looking forward to hearing those albums. For now though, I'm savouring and trying to digest the ones I've already bought – and I'd like to keep some held back, so I have something to look forward to! I don't want to overeat and make myself sick ;)

      The earliest of the albums I have is Trust Us, which is superb. What I find so amazing is MPs ability to stay fresh, to release album after album that not only veers into different territory, but remains true to a certain (psychedelic?) core. Moreover, that the quality remains high. Here Be Mosters, for example, is an album that (IMHO) stands out for being so beautifully laid-back, and seems on the face of it to be so different to the preceeding album (BTS), and yet it is unmistakably MP. And now The Tower, which is totally different again, and yet still dripping in MP DNA. And brilliant to boot.

      Of course, these are all the rramblings of someone who hasn't heard half of MPs output, and has only been swimming in the MP sea for a couple of weeks – so excuse me if I sound like I'm talking rubbish, or preaching to the converted ;) I'm just blown away and can't help myself :)

      Anyway, it's nearing 8:30 here in London and about time someone should be posting last night's setlist. Where is it? Where is it? Where is it?

      @Be – thanks for the dimeadozen recommendation. I've been aware of dime for some years now, but I'm not keen on and don't link into torrent sites (it is a torrent site, isn't it?). But I do from time to time download boots from other sources, but I find the results are mixed in terms of quality and I hate wasting time listening to bad recordings when I could be listening to something else (there's only so much time available). I'll have to hunt down some MP recordings though. Any particularly classic recommendations from over the years? Soundboard recordings would be particularly welcome if you know of any.
