Re: French Tour Set Opener....

It's gonna be yet another Greatest Hits tour. Has to be really when it's already been stated as a tribute. Aside from the hits I reckon we'll have some classics like "The Raven" and we have to have 1 or 2 from DM purely to nod thanks to Baz and Jim. Jim Well i think your take on how the t...

Re: Dark Matters - Second Thoughts

I’ve listened to the album in its entirety several times now at home,whilst out walking,driving to and from work and I still cannot get enthusiastic about it the best I can say is that it’s ok in some parts embarrassing in others cheesy occasionally and surely not the best they can since giants I w...

Re: French Tour Set Opener....

I think it will be Water. It kind of sets the Dark matters tone. The band are well behind the new album and have said they are looking forward to playing the whole album, I expect about half will get played but I would not expect violent changes gig to gig as there is a new band member.

That's what they should do with it now. On the Ruby Tour it was the Second Song. Sent from my SM-G960F u...
