Interesting, when I saw the setlist from the Germany gig I thought "Awesome, looks like they're improvising the setlist again", but it seems this is now THE setlist for this tour as the Roundhouse one is indentical. Also, not a single track from Barking on there. (not that I mind too much, though they should play You Do Scribble again sometimes, that was awesome :)).
Still, looks like a good setlist and looking forward to seeing them in Amsterdam next week!

Not to my ears it didn't (London Friday show), the latter was very sunshine-y major key, this was still quite dark, but more sparse.

The merch was fairly standard stuff, black tee with white diamond formation of UWBBWFASF, and a white version with black lettering, a black tee with random looking lines / lyrics, a tote, cd's and boxed sets (so they are finished !)

Dirty Club was a more up tempo / dance version of Dirty Epic, not heard this version totally like this before, was excellent.

Did anyone else think that the vocals after the 'intermission' we're not on point, as though Karl's effects were busted ? KoS #2 (first track back) was off, the next track, Faxed Invitation, the vocoder voice was well off and they seemed to cut that track short.

Still a great gig, wonder what made the alarm go off ? Seemed like they were pushing the envelope on the sound system, when they came back, they were testing how loud it would go too.

My 2p - Having seen UW many times over the last 21(!) years - this was definitely an excellent and very memorable gig. Maybe it was just that they haven't toured for a while (except the DubNo tour, which was great but an entirely different feel), but everything really came together.

New songs sounded excellent alongside the older material - I'm a big fan of the new album anyway, and the older tracks sounded fresh.

Great to hear Juanita/Kiteless, Rowla, 8 ball, and the new mix of Dirty. Everyone went totally nuts to KoS, especially after the evacuation when they restarted everyone just seemed to go completely nuts.
The set lasted for around 2h 10m, so plenty of time to play some less well known tracks which really made the set flow - it wasn't just a greatest hits set with some new material.

Would definitely love to hear a SB recording of one of the sets from this tour. They seems to be playing the same setlist for each gig, but that's in no way a bad thing.

Hopefully the Belgian radio broadcast will provide this, although the set may be shortened slightly as it's a two hour slot vs the 2h10 we seem to have been getting thus far...

I could be wrong, wouldn't be the first time!

Dirty Club is simply Dirty with Dirty Epic lyrics.

How long did they play?

AH bugger. The crowd seemed a bit lost at point, for example, going from curious (Ova Nova/Nylon Strung) to crazy (TMO) to inactive (8 Ball) in 10 minutes seemed little ... weird. Given that PG and Scribble were only played a few weeks ago, it does make sense to rotate those in, I know it's a bit AC/DC but crowd pleasers are fun.

Normally 2 hrs 10 minutes, but Camden #1 had a 30 minute Fire Break, so 8.50-11.30
