It's my least favourite on DC. They have yet to play that, Pencil Skirt, Monday Morning and Bar Italia yet this summer but I'd take all of them ahead of LBS.

 I love Bar Italia, quite like Pencil Skirt then LBS, least a fan of Monday Morning.

Live Bed Show is my favourite track on DC. My least favourite is Mis-shapes; must have had the whole bottle of brandy by the time he wrote that

You'll take Mis-Shapes out of my cold, dead hands.

I would say Live Bed Show is easily and by far the weakest song on Different Class. It's not bad but it's a dirge in the middle of an otherwise dirge-free album. It just slows things down a bit.

Drink!

Having done Finsbury Park a couple of previous times, I just brought a small bottle of water.  No queuing for bars nor toilets. Also I refuse to pay £7 plus for a pint!  

Also there were complaints about how quiet the gig was.  My advice would be to have got near the front.  I thought the sound was pretty good.

Nick Banks has criticised Finsbury Park gig organisers after fans were forced to queue more than an hour for a drink.

Absolutely terrific write-up from the Evening Standard, of all people:

I think Beaumont used to be a writer (or editor?) for the NME, who, for all their ick, have been consistent Pulp champions - even moreso in their post-print, .com days.

Yeah, sod the lighting, give us some different tracks! Not everyone can make it to Sheffield or Hammersmith, so concentrating all their setlist changes there isn't really fair.

I agree as I had hoped that this tour would be a little more Hardcore as it was 25 years ago, especially at Finsbury Park.  That written, Saturday night was only disappointing in that it ended so soon.  I was up for another hour or three.

Lots of moaning and groaning from residents on BBC London news about using Finsbury Park as a venue for Wireless. No one ever moans about Victoria Park
