Me too... I'm trying to think of any possible way that I could get there and back. Birmingham isn't the easiest to get back to London from because it's too far to get back in time to use public transport and I can't afford to stay up there :thinking: I'm going to try anyway :P

And you'd have to get from Birmingham to Wolverhampton itself! I'm gonna try and get a ticket today anyway. If I can't go I can sell it on.

Am going to the Wolves gig in May. Just got to buy a spare ticket off someone on another forum. Yay! Can't wait! :D

Roll on Thursday! :D Sounds like the German gig to kick off this mini-tour went well so can't wait til I see them next week in Wolves!

Wolves gig tonight and they played Solitude Sometimes Is at Llandudno last night so here's hoping! :D

Have put my orders in for National Treasures and am pondering whether to attempt the gig in December at the London O2!

Haven't been here for a while but those videos are fantastic :D I checked the setlist and you got one hell of a set! So many epic rares and I thought that the Brixton gigs had good setlists! :P I'm especially jealous of Of Walking Abortion, they don't play that very often :o... I got my tickets to the O2 but I'm going on my own because I bought a standing ticket thinking that it would take weeks to sell out. Can't believe it could be the last time they'll ever play :(

So who's going to the gig in december? ;) I'll be there.

btw, I doubt this is the last time they'll play actually.

Glad you liked the videos Pikamuse! :D I'm not doing the London gig. Would love to but too far for me. :( Might try for a signing on Oct 31st. The news is now out on the main non-official Manics fan forum so congratulations to Mr & Mrs Bradfield on the baby news! I await it's arrival excitedly! :D

Forgot to post my acoustic EMG vid up from same gig as above so here it is! :D
