I know I'm late... but it took me a few days to recover. This is my second show, as I was at the opener in Spain, (will be attending a 3rd show in London in August). Okay, here is my opinion, although this show was much cleaner, you couldn't beat the adrenaline and surprises of the 1st show in Barcelona. I liked the setlist this time around, maybe it had to do with the practice they had. Unknown Caller is definitely the standout on the new album and as the tour continues it is going to get LOUDER and LOUDER. If there is a song on the new album that is a MUST listen, Unknown Caller is the track. Although Crazy tonite isn't my favorite track on the album, it definitely resonates live, as does NO Line on the horizon. They should stop opening with Breathe and start with Magnificent... that song was meant to be an opener... the pulsing intro creates a dynamic atmosphere. Stuck in a moment was fabulous and really liked the stand by me snippet... Walk On was awesome but I felt it was under appreciated. The major disappointment for me, is the lack of change. I feel like they are ahead of there time with the aesthetics but don't realize that the fans want to be in for a surprise here and there. I understand the difficulty in doing so, with all the makeup and jetstreaming of the audio/video, but come on lads change it up a bit. Even if they switch the songs around in way of order, I'd be satisfied. I have a feeling that LONDON is going to be there best show yet... at least I hope!!!
