Did he debut any new songs?

No unfortunately

Technically no encore - Moz stayed on stage after Jack the Ripper and the band went straight into Hooligan. No successful stage invasions, or even handshakes I think (massive gap between barrier and stage). Signed t-shirt tossed at the end.

let me guess, same setlist as every night?

Took the Hogwarts Express from London Kings Cross to sunny Leeds and was worth every minute of the journey…absolutely fantastic!

just back to my hotel room. early train home in morning. Big crowd , I'm sure most folks are fine but there was a lot of arseholes too . just wading thru people to get to the front , the 2 older blokes I recognise from Leeds arena in 2020 but one of them got chucked out to cheers
a load piled in during first few songs but not too bad and it settled down until near the end when loads just waded in like a wave of wankers... total prices!!
lottery winners were brilliant , totally had the crowd on their side . slow readers were proficient, sound was good but zero personality and a bit samey n boring .
Moz was in fine fettle , no surprises in setlist other than no "hurling days" . Carmen had some tec issues during "stop me" so it sounded awful but other than that I thought they sounded very good . I've got a few videos that I will post if my WiFi is good enough ...off for a glass of vino now tho

Moz opened the show with an acapella bit of Little Man What Now:

"Too old to be a child star, too young to take...Leeds!"

 

[Young And Alive]

Nigel Farage is also a presenter. A quick internet search would tell you all you need to know about that channel Gordy.

Being on the right doesn't make him like the Nazis, anymore than being on the left makes someone the same as Stalin.

Setlist was identical to Portsmouth, just with 'Stop Me' replacing 'Hurling.'

 

[Young And Alive]

It would appear that way.

He has a wonderful back catalogue and yet still plods along with the same old setlist every time.

I mean how many times do we need to hear How Soon is Now? If he wants to swap it for another Smiths number, what about Well I Wonder or Back to the Old House?

All those albums, all those songs, where are they now?

Thanks for reports; augurs well for Dublin next. Weather fairly smiled on the outdoor crowd

They weren’t in Nottingham.

They weren’t in Nottingham.

The show that never was. The gig that must not be talked about.

 

[Intheknow]

Is there a video of the cartwheel?

 

[Robert Lee]

Is there a video of the cartwheel?

He's getting fitter

It's a crowd pleaser for the casual fans, but frankly I'm sick to death of it. Same with 'Everyday is Like Quando.'
