ive got a feeling there gunna play a setlist heavily drawing from their 1st and 2nd albums. they know they need to smash it, and they know that their first 2 albums are the more popular. expect them to drag out mardy bum, when the sun goes down, teddy picker etc i know these havent been in recent setlists but i reckon they will be pulled out.

I think its 50/50 on their mood, I'd like to see them ...but i know for certain I'm going have a good time at Chic as opposed to a rather large chance of being bored by the Arctic's for a good portion of their set. (It's a shame I'd really love to be more into them, I quite like the albums and b-sides apart from Humbug.)

First gig of the European festivals tonight, will be very interesting to see how it goes setlist wise. If anyone missed the other thread, they've shot/edited a new video apparently, my guess is there will be a single released to promo the Glastonbury slot, not definite it will be Do I Wanna Know though.

Just heard Mad Sounds (rough recording from crowd) – definitely not a single, it's a ballad. Will be much better on record than any fan recordings we will here.

On the subject of setlists, I genuinely don't think any setlists prior to Glasto mean anything. Glasto is the big one, the one they'll care about the most. All guns blazing type-job. It'll definitely be different to the others.

Having said this, I'm still a little concerned about them leaving out STYH/Circus recently. :(

There'll be a few changes no doubt, but core track will probably stay the same, meaning new additions like Fake Tales are almost definitely there to stay

And I'm kind of happy with the state of the setlist. Was never a massive fan of STYH and Circus anyway - it's nice they're mixing it up. I think their cuts from Nightmare and WPSIATWIN are better than they have been, Fake Tales is something I'm especially looking forward to.

It's only the Humbug choices that are annoying me, also glad they cut down the SIAS tracks for festivals. Other than the Don't Sit Down and Library Pictures they don't really go with the ruckus of the rest. The 3 they chose do fine

Hoping to see Jewellers Hands, Dance Little Liar (obviously), Mardy Bum, A Certain Romance and Piledriver Waltz in the final glasto set on top of the bulk of what's there now. Hopefully we'll get a couple!
