A bit like a certain other bands set list then? Obviously the way to go :wink:
Very true but unlike the Stranglers, Killing Joke don't have a "chart history" which means they can be a bit more 'off the wall' in their set selection!
I am sure you and others will have a great time!

Oh I don't know?? Love Like Blood, Kings & Queens and Eighties were a charty!!!

Not that it'd stop them not playing them :wink:

They seem to be playing a different set, no Requiem and Wardance which have been done to death.............

Looking forward to the new album. They;re on a roll at the moment and Geordie is keen to do an album a year. They are finally making a few quid!

No set list spoilers except to say great mixture of newbies and some old favs!

First night roughness evident at times though seeing as due to Jaz's laryngitis the gig nearly didn't happen, he recovered well to give his usual animated performance.

Thoroughly enjoyable evening grappling with the barrier in a very tight and compact venue!

Next stop Bristol!

Cheers Rodders, was the new stuff any good?

Looking forward to the Roundhouse. 8)
