Manics@TheAstoria
Fucking awesome experience to see the Manics last night.
The greatest band ever.
Third time I've seen them and they are still fucking great.
They did a long set and songs from almost all of their albums.
They looked well and in fine fettle and it was as ever like watching a fire work display of amazing music.
They did a couple of my favourites: Stay Beautiful and Motown Junk.
Love all the songs anyway.
James also did "Let Robeson Sing" :

"Liberty lost still buried today
Beneath the lie of the USA"

Probably the most important lyric in the history of pop music.

I have seen the Manics three times Brixton '93, Reading Festival '97 and this one above.
