RhysP Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 [quote name='toneknob' timestamp='1435140904' post='2805805'] Did anyone else hear an Oom-pah** version of La Villa Strangiato in the interval? ** as in German brass band, not Oompah Loompahs. At how many other gigs does one need to make this distinction? [/quote] Sounds like the one from one of the Rush tour videos a few years back.

gary mac Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 [quote name='Meddle' timestamp='1435180943' post='2806374'] Must have been a really good performance.

Bradwell Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Saw them in Manchester yesterday, enjoyed most of it as the sound quality at the Manchester Apollo was decent and there was a lot of familiar tunes from right across their career, great to hear American life, My name is Mud etc. Wasn't so keen on the chocolate factory part of the set, mostly it was too whimsical and bizarre for my tastes. Although there was some cracking xylophone & cello solos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 I agree with you . I also think they should've played the set In the reverse order. Crowd faves first . Somebody in here thought that is what woukd happen iirc. Primus are notoriously patchy , and as i haven't got the new album I was lost . That guy in xylophone was awesome tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] They did that at Manchester last night - a comprehensive romp through all of the albums (only exception was Antipop) as a trio, then the Wonka set. Encores with the cellist and percussionist were brilliant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wonka set was bonkers, had a laugh when the umpalumpas had the 2 footy strips on in the club shops, didn't know which one to boo the most, nice touch though. The 2 half hour drive home was a killer but worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigBurks Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) I went to see them in Manchester yesterday, ran in to Les in Piccadilly station in the afternoon. Got a fist-bump and a "see you at the gig man" from him when I said hi. Not asking him for photo may haunt me to the grave though...
