Nice. The award they're picking-up at the NME thing is named after this aswell isn't it? I have a 14 year-old cousin fighting a losing battle with leukemia. Absoloutely heartbreaking to see it happen.
Great to see the group support this.
I wonder will it be part of a series of UK dates around that time before they go off to America. Probably unlikely given it's towards the end of Feb now.

I assume it's just by knowing about it, i.e. seeing that tweet. The link goes to a www2 address which is presumably not generally visible on the normal seeticket site.

Sad about the Russell situation too, but what's the normal situation with TCT gigs? Does one tend to get new songs, or is it very much a Hits arrangement...?

It's all the hits usually, since it attracts the kinda audience you get on festivals. but who knows...
Or maybe I'm wrong (but only just!). This is the number of times each Pulp song (over 10,000 listens) has been played by last.fm users over the last 6 months.

"Pulps original line up - Nick Banks, Jarvis Cocker, Candida Doyle, Steve Mackey and Mark Webber - will perform their greatest hits." is on the TCT website. Dont expect Manon acoustic.
Suede's setlist from when they played a couple of years back:
She Trash Filmstar Animal Nitrate Heroine Pantomime Horse The Drowners Killing of a Flashboy Can't Get Enough Everything Will Flow He's Gone The Next Life The Asphalt World So Young Metal Mickey The Wild Ones New Generation Beautiful Ones
Encore: The Living Dead The 2 of Us Saturday Night
I was thinking of the Suede gig, aye. It was, however, their first 'comeback' gig, wasn't it? Well, apart from the Manchester warm-up anyway. Hence hearing The Hits was every bit as good as hearing the 'rarities'!
