Take with pinch of salt, there is a cretin afoot.
FWD.

I was about to reply to myself this exact thing

 

[Doctor Tinkle]

You’ve lost 10 years there

Don’t worry I do it all the time

Ha! Maths was never my strong point...

 

[Light Housework]

Coma

 

[Malc]

Frankly Mr Shankly

 

[Famous when dead]

Anyone recognise this pre-show track?
I know it from somewhere, but no hits via my usual search routines...

FWD.

 

[teib02]

Did they really play frankly mr shankly?

 

[Doctor Tinkle]

Did they really play frankly mr shankly?

Yes, he said "this isn't about anyone you know, if that helps!?"

He’s played it before solo right?

 

[Deleted member 29227]

Just wondering if Smiths_85 ever made it to the gig...or is he still at Wetherspoon's, in the bar, with his head on the bar?

 

[DubbalinGirl]

My partner in crime is at Liverpool and says Setlist.fm is correct. The encore, which is about to begin, will be #18

 

[Doctor Tinkle]

I will roar from the stalls if he plays Hurling and Jack....

1 out of 2 ain't bad. Got Hurling, but I'll take a Speedway over Jack this time. What a song!! Great drums. Remember the Liverpool Royal Court in 1999. Took my mum to see him and she loved that song.

 

[DubbalinGirl]

Speedway after Please Please

 

[DubbalinGirl]

Irish Blood encore

 

[Young And Alive]

I wish he’d pull a rabbit out of the hat one of these days. Take everyone by surprise.

Reel Around the Fountain, Back to the Old House, My Love Life, Wide to Receive.

Something like that.

 

[Light Housework]

EDILS

 

[sweetnuthin]

I wish he’d pull a rabbit out of the hat one of these days. Take everyone by surprise.

Reel Around the Fountain, Back to the Old House, My Love Life, Wide to Receive.

Something like that.

I'm dreaming of a time when 'Hand in Glove' is played. Has he done it in the last few years - or at all since the Smiths split?

 

[TheSmiths_1985]

Please play Sweet and Tender Hooligan… please, please, please,
“Irish blood, Eng…” I’m out of there.
