Glam Bucket @ UK shows

[swannman]

Would anyone happen to know whether the performances of Glam Bucket at Birmingham, Glasgow, or Manchester were similar to Karl's rendition in Denver?

In Denver, his guitar improv stood out in a way that resembled some of the live performances of Twist... in last night's show it was much less prominent. Since I can't get a recording of the Denver show, I'm looking for a close match from the UK

For folks that didn't make it to Denver:

the version they played in glasgow doesnt have the guitar featuring prominantly at all.

Truly one of the best parts of the evening. I saw two AHDO-era live shows here in the U.S. and both had the ripping geetar on "Twist." Always felt the studio version paled in comparison to the live version. I would have to say the same for "Glam Bucket." Amazing song live; however, a lil' disappointed in the studio version. Just don't like how the song fades out just as the guitar is starting to really get going. :/

Thank you for the report! Did anyone else attend the Birmingham or Manchester shows?

Agreed re: Twist live versus on the album... I just heard the live show a couple of months ago, and it was eye-opening.

i agree on the twist bit, the disparity is not nearly as pronounced with glam bucket. i think the studio version is sublime.

Glam bucket = A Forest by The Cure.

That's what i think.

Hey swannman -- I got word from Flywaver that the Birmingham CD has Karl rocking out on guitar.

So I guess you're with me and you'll be ordering this gig as well?

(Thanks Flywaver!!!)
