I'm a UK fan…and didn't know about the band when they last played the UK 8 years ago (it's hard to discover a band who has no UK radio airplay, or TV appearances, or magazine articles, and who's music can't be found in the UK music shops – even if they are the best band in the world!), so for me it was a dream come true to be able to go see the band on my own native shores. I had a 400 mile round trip from Liverpool, but I could never have afforded to travel to Europe to see them.

I thought they were fantastic, and while I would have loved to have seen them play some of my faves from years gone by, like Hey Jane, Neverland, STG, Serpentine, Snafu etc. etc. one think I've learned is they never trot out the greatest hits package over and over again when they tour. And that's one of the things I love about them…musically they never stay still. (And I just knew they would play something I didn't know!).

I just hope the guys don't leave it so long before playing the UK again!

Oh, and don't blame 'the UK' for the 10.30 curfew. This was down to the venue itself..probably due to the fact that it's right in the middle of a built up residential area, or something.

I took a few. Not very good ones, though.
