Indeedy the presence of much Holy Bible material ("Yes" is always great live) was welcome (and did they play anything from "Know your Enemy" - don't think so). All in all, quite a good gig. Possibly the funniest part was the crowd waiting for an encore while we made our way down the cloakroom. They've never, ever played an encore. Ever!

WRT to an encore, if you had a seat, you'd have had somewhere to hang your coat during the gig so there's no harm in waiting around just in case. We, however, faced a pretty big queue if we waited and so were quite relieved that we knew about their reluctance to encore. PS: Funny how the "h" looks a lot like "b" in this font. PPS: I'd really love to go to next week's concert but I don't want to consent to being filmed so I can't!
