Saw nick cave when he toured abbatoir/lyre. Pretty sure the main set was only material from those albums, he didn’t do everything mind, probably did an hour of it. Cracking gig. ‘Hiding All The Way’ was monstrous and Nick spent all of ‘Babe, you turn me on’ looking for a lighter. Did the obligatory ‘best of’ encore afterwards.
Los Camp! doing Romance is Boring with full orchestral backing.

True it’s technically possible though
I mean, technically, sure, but almost certainly not
That felix album is really out of place there!
I’m just full of contradictions.
I hate the format but if I had to vote I’d vote for Mellon Collie since it would be the first time the criminally underrated Tales of a Scorched Earth would be played live.
One of my all time favourite albums. They don’t seem to play anything from it now.
Genuinely can’t believe they’ve never played that live. It’s a monster choon
Oasis’ comeback could be running through Definitely Maybe. With Bonehead and Guigsy. Maybe not the drummer.
