Fantastic gig! Saw them in Glasgow back in August and this set was completely different! Some songs I wished they'd played back then they played tonight, and vice versa. Can't please everyone all of the time, not with so many great songs anyway!
Loved the 'overindulgent' last 20 mins. Pumpkins have always done this sort of thing, so it's nothing new. Guess there was no encore because they should have been off stage by 10:30 (local regs). And hence the 08:30 start. Pumpkins always cram more songs into their sets than most bands as there is usually very little gaps between the songs.
Was sitting in the side stand and the crowd was a little subdued, but it didn't stop me enjoying the gig. Wish I'd gone moshing down the front instead now - next time!! And soon please!!!
