Nope. They are all scams. Best thing to do is report them as scams trying to get credit card & email information
Cheers.

Over 50 of them, that's a shame. How can YouTube allow this? They should see to that, without anybody reporting. As it's the same for other bands as well ...

... and not one real vid from the gig ... :( .. I guess they're all hidden on FB ... :( :( :( ...

Yep. Google are pretty re-active rather than pro-active when it comes to taking stuff down.
They'll only do it if asked to or if stuff is reported.
Last year's The Cure tour was a nightmare. There were hundreds of scam streams, some posted weeks ahead of the actual shows.
Cheers.

I attended the first night in Brussels yesterday and I don't know if it's only for this tour but one of the tee-shirts sold was the one with in front the old logo + "utterly bastard groovy", the typo is brown and on the back is written one sentence of the "Burn" song : "And the kissing and the colour come crashing down".

1992 original here : https://tshirtslayer.com/tshirt-or-long ... tile-house

By the way, the "utterly bastard groovy" meaning seems to remain a bit hum... unclear :lol:

Crikey, I haven't been on tshirtslayer for ages.
Utterly Bastard has been a standard at gigs for the last twenty years. Good shirt though.

No Stockholm reviews yet so I decided to search to see when the guy in the bear suit first appeared. I don't see any mention. He's not an new addition, is he?

2nd night I thought it was Possession was on the setlist but not played; they did Walk Away again instead, and after that Walk Away stayed (seems obvious in hindsight that Possession was the backup option if Walk Away hadn't worked out; woulda been nice to have had both of course).
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Likely I would expect; they've not had a year without touring since 2013 so a break might be in order.

Ghost will be on the road again, lets see how extensive. Also they release a live set, finally including the young men on a likely nice release.
Great music disguised in a religious porn puppet show. Lets hope this ventures are not spoiling the young men.
