Sounds good, I think One Step Beyond should be nearer the end though - unless they always do it first??

Thanks.

Surprised there is so little from the new album.

Great setlist nonetheless!

Looks cool, isn't Personal Jesus a Johnny Cash song originally?

I was there - what a gig!  We got there about 2 hours early so were right at the front, it was possibly by favourite festy band I've ever seen.  And the fact it was basically a greatest hits set made it even better.  

I was slightly worried about the new album coming out, thinking that they would do too many new songs, but that setlist looks good to me.  And ending with Night Boat to Cairo is just about as good as it can get.  Well looking forward to a rudeboy skank!  :(

Nope, I'm very wrong and uncool. Cash covered DM. Sorry, feel free to hurl abuse.

Think they're getting 15-20 minutes longer at Glastonbury than at Pinkpop, so expect a few more oldies such as Lovestruck, Wings Of A Dove, Grey Day and Cardiac Arrest.

its pretty decent for a band thats been writing for 30 years. hope they play we are london.

i have the extended version of the album. i think the shorter version would be better!

They always start with One step Beyond so reckon I'm going to have to bail out of the end of the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs set.

If you enjoyed them at LV, they are much better in front of a big crowd in the open air (I saw them at Bestival).

If they've got  longer set, I remember them doing Iron Shirt both times I saw them and they did Bed and Breakfast man at LV too (one of my faves!).

:)

He covered it as part of his American Recordings albums, he also did Hurt by NIN and One by U2 as well as others.
