Yep, got tickets for Brixton and the Ally. Will be 12 and 13th time seeing him - still the best, even if he's his own worst enemy sometimes. Noticed you're a big fan from your Twitter! What do you make of the new album?

Some great tracks on the album, I really like 'Who will protect us from the police? But I'm looking forward to hearing his older stuff. Speedway, Jack the Ripper etc.

Like that too - think STDIB and HIAQM also great. And the opener has a real 'you're gonna need someone on your Side' feel to it too! Looking forward to speedway too. Was great in Manchester couple of years ago. His setlist could do with a bit of a shake up though I think, though I like the fact he slips b sides in. Would love to hear never played symphonies.

True, love HIAQM. I tweeted earlier the setlist for his three shows so far.

One of the best gigs I've ever been to. Small venue, about an hour after the place should have closed, ubteenth encore (not that they bothered going off and on again), guest musicians and members of the audience on stage, absolutely wild jamming, place was still bouncing. Staggered out exhausted but very happy afterwards.

As long as it doesn't stray into tedious self-indulgence (a.k.a. endless widdly widdly stuff), I don't mind seeing new music created/improvised on stage by skilled musicians.

If I went to see a band and they didn't do 90 minutes (or near enough), I would feel short-changed and want my money back.
Especially a legacy act. If you go to see McCartney or Springsteen then you would expect a two and a half hour gig. When I last saw Springsteen he did 3 hours.

I've seen him about eight times I think and he's always been excellent (never had a no show and always played a decent length set). Sadly this tour I didn't get tickets as we're short of babysitting options and skint due to baby number two on the way (the price of parenthood!)

I've seen the Levellers a couple of times in the last couple of years, as well as the likes of Level 42, Billy Ocean (both through my brother's line of work) and they were all on for 90 minutes plus and seemed to be enjoying it as much as the audience - the Levellers especially were brilliant.

McCartney - please! I couldn't put up with more than a couple of songs of him croaking. Frog Chorus, anyone? Without disrespecting his past achievements, someone should quietly have a word & suggest that he doesn't sing in public again.

I always find that people who throw the Frog Chorus at Macca are trying a little too hard. It was a children's song written for a children's movie. No more, no less. It was't supposed to be a song to stand up against others ion his body of work like Hey Jude or Penny Lane. And I don't think something along the lines of Helter Skelter would have been appropriate as the title track for a film about Rupert the Bear.
Is he croaking? Well the bloke is getting closer to his 80th birthday so I wouldn't expect his voice to be the same as when he belted out I'm Down or Long Tall Sally but he can still rock with the best even at his late stage of life
And his back catalogue contains some of the finest British pop/rock songs ever written and still does them justice in concert today.
