PS Pulp have gone mental, haven't they? All these weird songs...

The UK tour is going to throw up some really odd things, I think...

Course there will be. Yeah it seems anything goes, which is excellent news. Probably a combination of Jarvis having to listen to the old Fire albums and them all getting bored with the same old stuff. We should have known really when we knew all the stuff they'd rehearsed that they might air all the obscure stuff at some point

It's interesting, Jarvis has often expressed a strong antipathy to and sense of embarrassment about the old albums, but is that more to the quality of the recordings and the general memory of that period with the strained relationship with Fire and not gettiing anywhere, miserable mid-80s and so on, rather than the songs themselves?

I always took it as being in regard to the recordings and the production. It's clear that, despite him often slagging off Freaks, he has genuine affection for stuff like 'I Want You', which was unleashed several times in 2002, for example.

including the third Encore... Seems like the SF / LA shows combined, played all those songs w/ the exception of HELP THE AGED and Little Girl w/ blue eyes if I recall correctly.

I think Mexico City has a lot of amazing music fans (clearly with excellent taste), but they're kind of starved for bands since they don't get that many that are willing to tour out there, what with all the horror stories. 

Some lovely photos here (confirming that Mark still has all of his fingers).

I think there was some kind of review here, but the site crashed before I had a chance to run it through a translator. (fixed the link)

Just reading some of the fan reaction of the gig on last.fm
While having to guess at some of the Mexican Spanish phrases, I think it's fair to say they went down pretty well.
I wonder if the young Mexican girl I met at Primavera was there, or indeed all those Mexicans who got a shout-out by Jarvis at Brixton for following the band all last summer. They must have wept with joy and for their bank balance or lack thereof when they heard Pulp were going to play somewhere a wee bit closer to home.

Edit: Just read the blog review you linked to, Twiggy. Some nice observations, how (some) Mexicans are even more British than the Brits (Hi Paola!) and that for a band that were never huge in that territory, and that seeing as any native in attendance would need a TOEFL qualification to watch the show, a crowd of 20,000 is quite impressive. (Would Pulp have made more money from that gig than the US ones combined?). The best concert of his life, he said. Radiohead and Metallica play the same venue over the summer.

Seems like Pulp are finally living up to the promise of playing music from all periods of their career. Really hoping for a UK tour now!

Stephen, is there a recording out there of I Want You 2002?

setlist.fm also has a third encore with Live Bed Show and Monday Morning being played.

Amazing selection of rarities.....but on the other hand is that the first time they've played all of Different Class in one concert?

Shotoki - thanks for the nod. I've not heard of a Forest gig in circulation that includes 'I Want You', but it would be odd if one didn't.

I was reading about the Palacio de Deportes concert. Apparently Pulp were playing to 18000 - yes - eighteen THOUSAND people on Monday. I didn't believe that until I read that the wikied the venue and found it had a maximum capacity of 20000.

Is this the single largest indoor capacity crowd Pulp have played to? Or were the Arena tours in 96 larger?

This guy Egrendono seems to have most of the set up. Will look for another LGWBE, but fair play, the sound quality is not bad.

Thanks Sarah (and Egrendono)! Sounds like a great crowd too.

so Jean Cook must still be out with them...wonder if she'll stay out with them for the European shows...

 You'd think one person out of 18,000 would record it and stick it online.

Stephen, is there a copy of Dalby Forest circulating? They played it there and I'd love to hear it as I was front row!

My girlfriend was there too, so would also love to hear this. Sadly, nothing seems to have shown up yet. The forest gigs are surprisingly poorly represented in the world of bootlegs, actually...

I would be interested in a full copy of Eden too, I only have the TV recordings also.

I can upload Sherwood later if it's not done by the time I get home from work.

You're not missing out. It's not a great photo, but one of the few from this year where I am sans beard. Although I like my beard, it seldom photographs well, so I chose this one.

The Baritalia I look at on my 'phone has no pictures...

Probably just different 'phones. My 'phone is very old and doesn't like the Internet having pictures.
