Fantasy Lockdown Setlist April 2020

Spent a lot of time thinking about this, and it's still a right old dog's breakfast, but here we go, off the hip and from the heart:

1 Peeled Apples - banger to start, not appreciated enough
2 Tristesse Durera - for some reason makes me cry live
3 Yes - lots of lyrics for James
4 There By the Grace of God - a personal fave, bit of introspection, great belt it out chorus
5 1985 - got to have a bit of Lifeblood
6 Intravenous Agnostic - always wanted to hear this one
7 The Girl Who Wanted to Be God - adore this one, bawl out the lyrics, feel a bit dizzy
8 Ready for Drowning - calm it down, take it to church
9 Prologue to History - bounce
10 Me and Stephen Hawking - a highly literate racket
11 Stay Beautiful - why don't you just ...

Sean f*cks off for a coke; Nicky f*cks off for a costume and eyeliner change

Acoustic section:
12 This Joke Sport Severed - beautiful
13 Still a Long Way to Go (yes, I cheated, what are you going to do, arrest me?)
14 Raindrops (singalong, all weep)

Sean and Nicky reappear, Nicky eating a packet of salt and vinegar, launch into
15 Mr Carbohydrate - you know you've always wanted it
16 Motorcycle Emptiness - all go wild
17 Futurology - I just like the rallying cry feel and lyric
18 No Surface All Feeling - weeping a bit again now
19 People Give In - we're all getting old
20 Faster - but not so old that we don't pogo wildly
21 Found That Soul - we certainly have
22 Tolerate - ah ah ah ah ah ah, ah ah ahhhhhhhh
23 You Love Us - yes, we do
24 PCP - lots more lyrics for James, nearly there
25 A Design for Life - confetti, almost fall over trying to catch it

'We have been the manic street preachers, may your gods go with you, goodnight ... '

Scream

Bar - chips - bed.

Til next time ...
