For what it's worth...or not....I love the Uptown version of Emma.

Still not convinced that it is not improvised as he starts singing pretty late in the song....but again....I LOVE IT!!!! :twisted:

1) For it all to actually take place...

2) Decent long-sleeve T-shirts..

and

3) The sound in the Astoria to be OK.. last gig I went to in there was fricking crap as the sound engineer had no idea what he was doing... *squelch.. squelch.. squelch... etc etc..*

Definitely decent tour shirts - maybe even something tasteful for a change!
The '97 shirt is still the best by miles...

A new hoodie would be handy too - mine is small and grey now :(

… this is one of my favourite songs so this would be my pick for sure.
I’d love to finally hear it live instead of on a dodgy Bootleg.
Marian is an awesome song but I can understand the reaction of most people here. If it isn’t played as the original its just not the same song anymore.

In ascending order of priority:

Mellow bouncers who don't find my MP3 recorder
Venue which allows smoking on and off stage
Good bar that doesn't charge $20 for a beer
A shortage of rugrats
Good crowd
Dance on Glass
Jolene
Stop Dragging My Heart Around without the boos and catcalls from the audience
1959 (never heard it live)
Announcement of a new album

I'm starting a book on how likely any of these are to come to pass - offering 50-1 on the new album - anyone want some of this action?
All of these things have to happen at the NYC gig for bets to get paid off ;D

Bliss. :notworthy:
:notworthy:
the last time i saw them at rock city (2001 -which was also the first time i had seen them since reading '91) they opened with that -i nearly creamed my self. definitely the best opener.
Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

the played the opening few bars of this at the NEC 27.6.92 before Von announcing we were all ten years too early and then they played 1969 :notworthy:

absolutely stonking.
The only thing I want announced is a new release 12" / DVD or album!! :lol:

All highly unlikely, about as much chance as our lottery syndicate winning something :lol: I think this is a farewell tour.

We'll know soon enough, depending on whether Von says 'Goodnight' or 'Goodbye' at the end of each gig.

damn, I just realized I stopped smoking a month ago (well not really "realized" THAT obviously) which means I'll have to spend a WHOLE sisters gig without a cigarette in my mouth? :eek:

I'll go crying in that corner over there right now :(

oh, and (finally) for my requests:
-emma for real this time
-a "pulp" cover could be nice, I don't see him doing it though.....but "she's a lady" for example could be ace sung by andy, or "pink glove"....
-a longer sister ray than the previous ab gig
-comfortably numb / SKOS
-adrenochrome
-loads of new songs
shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather....

I think this is a farewell tour.
I don't think so. Would they really end their final tour in Nottingham? :eek:

I am interested in what next though. After such a long tour, either some kind of new product or another couple of years off? Then what, XXX?

This next 12 months has to be the final, final chance to get something released! :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:



It's not going to happen is it? :cry:

I know, for I was there. ;) EvilBastard seemed to be asking for the whole song though, so I didn't think the intro counted.
