I think I read somewhere that Jarvis hinted at the Manchester gig that this was going to be their last run of large gigs.
You could be right. End of the Road. They announce it is their last ever gig? Would that be an ‘unusual performance’ though? Expect the unexpected?
I still think the most likely scenario is they play the new album in full, like they did at Southbank. Simon has probably convinced them it is forward thinking festival and the EoTR audience wouldn’t want them to just play the hits…
I think if it was a More-only show it would have been advertised as such especially given they’ve already done one. It’s interesting that nothing has been said about the nature of the set since that first teaser in November, though.
