I think this is the one that'll break the Pulp concert decibel levels (record currently jointly held by Glasto'95, Mexico'12 and, erm, HallamshireHotel'84...). I know two people going, it seems the country is gripped. Their leaders are awful, but they love their music (and futbol). Imagine if Messi had decent taste in music and tagged along to this?

Ooh... so Joyriders and Bad Cover Version.

Maybe they've been listening. Are they songs that are easily switched in I wonder? Joyriders was used intermittently in 2012 in a slot of the setlist I seem to recall.

I strongly suspect that the 2024 tour... which feels kinda separate to this tour in terms of the time lag... could have a completely new setlist, but who knows, they are are still playing countries not played for many years.

One song I would love is Lipgloss... If (when) they do Glastonbury, I hope they bring it out .

I was considering going to S. America to see them, as it's a country I want to visit, but in all honesty now that the setlist is largely the same I'm glad I held those plans off.

A British view from what looks like seats at the back:


Ok so I'm not gonna lie, it was fucking awesome!! Said hi to jarv and co for you.

Key observations:
It took a while for them to get the crowd going, but I guess it was an arena with lots of people seated.
Jarvis throwing in some comments in Spanish in a northern accent was hilarious! Got the new song (I liked), and a couple I don't think were played at the other gig - Bad cover version?
Danced loads with folks around me, but the big singalongs just didn't happen, it was weird! I'm assuming because it's all in English and more difficult.
Not one, not two, but three encores! Ending on Mis-shapes. I was sad there wasn't any Argentina specific merch. I wish I'd got the white t-shirt from the gig we went to. All in all a wonderful experience, but I don't think matches the energy/intensity of in the UK (fans, not the band).

Hmm...judging from the reaction and clips on social media, my friend's experience/vantage point may have been atypical!

Jarvis' vocals sounding great on Joyriders there. Also, band sounding excellent. Really good rendition
