I know yesterday (13th March) was the first time a new PSB track had been played in ages, but (as per the long standing forum rules) in future all public requests for copies of any new track, PSB or otherwise, will be deleted and/or threads containing requests closed. We will officially...
For those wondering if the PSBs will be making a stop in Europe around the time of the new UK dates, Neil told the packed house in Berlin tonight that they'll be back in the German capital in December.
That would suggest further European dates before Christmas (and before the British dates)....

Hi Danger - yes I'm sure every one of the eight or so Aussies on this forum will make every effort to attend such an event - but its the rest of the population that need convincing of the Boys' genius :lol:
Their BP perforamnces in Germany like UK are been always well followed and sometimes even...
I think I'm going to go to O2 for the Electronic reunion with a mate or two -- are all tickets created equal or are there VIP/Backstage tickets like there were here in the US?
Willing to $$. IF I'm going to fly over, I want it to be worth it!

No trace of special package for the O2 gig like in last spring.

to carry all the stuff so we got just a t-shirt... one...
no program! :grumble:
Can someone buy me a copy of the tour program
and I will PayPal the costs?
(I ask this as the program was not offered at the shop)
Thanks :angel:
Finally we have it!
PSB will have 2 gigs in Italy next year, 30 and 31 February 2010.
Locations TBA.

I don't think it's just a problem of poor Yes sales. Fundamental didn't set our charts on fire either, did it?
The problem with concerts in our country is that they're turning increasingly either into exclusive and rather expensive events (think of Neil Young playing last year in Milan's...
San Francisco, Warfield Theater
September 22 – 23, 2009
I flew in from Denver, on an afternoon flight that arrives at SFO at 3.20. Lucky me since the Meet & Greet line starts at 5.30 and supposedly the M&G it self starts at 6.30.
NOT so lucky me, when the supposedly heat-waved San Francisco’s...

I am going to be in Vegas for a car show with my boyfriend that weekend and have decided I want to go to the concert - since the one at the Hammerstein in NYC was so awesome (although the Hammerstein as a venue SUUUCKS) The thing is - I don't have anyone to go with! Is anyone out there going? Does...

alp3 And of course a little unknown fact about Chris's sibling! Very nice!
share the gossip please!!
yes and what about culver city, i used to wokr in the area.
Overall a great concert. There were a few times where I felt they missed the chance to 'big-up' new songs, but generally a fun 'mash-up' style with nice flourishes, and great to hear a lot of 'Actually' period tracks.
Several things were very annoying though !
1. The open DJ - DJ Kid Dickhead or...

Well, I'm glad this is cleared up. I know that VLV was on the setlist but somehow the new arrangement & combining it with Domino dancing completely befuddled me. And I was completely sober!
As for the visuals -- LOVED 'EM! And I am unanimous in that .....
Hi everyone,
well I was looking at the PSB twitter page, and it says,

He should have just gone to the dj booth and picked up a copy of two of their cd's and pointed at the covers.
Well, it's 1:42 a.m. and I just got back from the show. It sucked.
NOT!!!!!!!! Seriously, it was the best show I have ever seen. Hands down.
The PSB sounded awesome-really loud!!! No real deviations in the set list, so
if you saw previous set lists it was pretty much the same, but still wicked....

Andy was sooooooooooo serious as he counted us in groups and herded us in. He acted as if he could bite your head off if you were to give a slight protest.
Being very dumb, I was wondering- where does everyone buy these M&G packages? Just curious for next time. Is it a fan club thing? Didn't seem any option on Ticketmaster. And I'm sure there's some obvious answer..
How does one but a ticket to a M&G? Thanks in advance..

I have a feeling Nanook may have been to one of these it may be worth you getting in touch with him and see what his plans are for that evening.
Hello, Nightlife!
Thanks for recommending me! And I DO like to be androgenous, BUT... in reality Nanook is a girl! :wink:
Hi
I was at this show last night but forgot my camera. Could someone who was at the show, who took photos, please send me a few of them. The show was amazing and I would love some pictures of it.
Thank you,

How was the Minneapolis show? any technical delays? and what was the closing statement Neil made at the end of the show?

Great show - no techincal delays and I believe he dedicated the whole show to you!
Just finished looking over all my travel arrangements! I'm going to the Manchester, London, Amsterdam, Koln/Cologne, Berlin and Leipzig shows! I'm going to be totally broke and this is not the best time to spend money during this ridiculous recession but in the larger scheme of things, it just...
Just got back from the Milwaukee show. Wow! I waited through many months of not watching clips from the shows and it really paid off (though I did know the set list). I thought this was better than Fundamental and Release shows, and possibly better than the nightlife tour. I skipped Chicago and...

This was the fourth tour I've seen from them (starting with Nightlife) and this was definitely the best show. I really wasn't impressed by the set for Nightlife, and the two dancers for Fundamental we just annoying, and, frankly, they played all the songs I tend to skip when listening to them. I...
I just noticed in my ticket for the Atlantic City concert this Sunday that it says no cameras are allowed. The web page of the House of Blues says There are no cameras recording devices permitted. Has anybody been to this concert hall and if so is that rule enforced? I'd like to take a camera to...

I think that with cell phones it's becoming increasingly difficult to enforce rules against photography and video. It's funny that as soon as a concert starts you see a wave of hands go up with cell phones recording.

I wonder what the band really think of the M&G's? You can usually tell by looking for the unconscious signs such as breathing rate and blink rate. If they are relaxed, these will be slow... if they are more nervous or irritated, these are often quicker. I don't suppose you noticed? It would be...
Not sure if the pre-show music is the same at all the shows...anyone know what version of Shannon's Let the Music Play was played before the Atlanta gig?

I work for PRO MOTION who are representing PSB in the USA wanted to share this review of the show and professional photos! also on the site is an interview I did with Chris!
I was checking out the set list for the North American tour and I noticed that , 'RENT' is not listed..If I am not mistaken (or insane) I could have sworn they did the song here in Montreal. I remember thinking when Neil was singing the song, that Liza Minnelli did the song on her RESULTS...
Oh so no one's put up a review!? :roll: :) Allow me then. I didn't do the VIP M&G mostly for financial reasons(Why do PSB & DM always seem to release albums and then tour the same year? :lol: They need to work something out and somehow alternate for us fans who want to see multiple shows of each!)....

OK OK enough from the Sylvia pundits! I know no one on this forum likes her but you'll never win me over to your view.
I like her. She` s always done a god job for PSB. Her too strong voice is a good addition to Neil`s, bringing drama and spectacular to the songs. I strongly doubt that she ever...

Tucky, you thought Hammerstein was a rubbish venue? Don't know what other sorts of sightlines would be better, but ok. Agree it is a sort of intimate space, compared to 02, say.

Thanks!

Not cap for me in this tour, I have the onew from the last tour still in perfect condition. Maybe in Berlin a tshirt with the gigs on its back and the mug could be mine.
Who's going to Miami? Any pre-concert or after-concert events scheduled?
If there's enough interest maybe we could plan something before the concert at one of the nearby clubs or restaurants?
Anyone here going to that? And if so, have you gotten info on how that's going to work? I'm going to the one in Atlanta in a couple of weeks so I was wondering how it was going to go down since they won't tell us until a week before the show.
Last time I saw the Pets in D.C. -- same venue, DAR Constitution Hall -- I bought cheapo tickets for the nosebleeds and really regretted it. Since I only see them once every three or four years, and since tix aren't cheap anyone, why not actually buy some goods?
So this time I did: I paid the $200...

Hello everyone, I a huge PSB fan from Vancouver BC and I am so chuffed that the boys are heading this way in 18 days.

I would like to ask some questions the fans who have already been to a show during this tour.
