Marion in Manchester. Quite bloomin' good, to say the least.










Actually, saying nothing at all would've been literally 'to say the least', but that wouldn't get my post count up.

Oh groovy. I didn't know they were still going.

The Cult in Manchester tonight. VERY disappointing.

Crap sound (some bass would've been helpful), crap crowd and Astbury saying even more stupid things than ever (eg, with no irony whatsoever: 'This is show business'....Desperately pleading 'Please, please clap, c'mon, PLEASE!')

Great Tap moment when he spent half a minute trying to get his mic stand to undo before giving up and kicking it over. He was also wearing a purple tracksuit top/hoodie thing and jogging on the spot like feckin mad lizzie.

I could go on.

This is balanced against a sparkling 'Spiritwalker' and 'Sanctuary' and the odd moment when it all came together fairly tightly, but overall I was left wondering what the hell it was all about.

Hope you lot have a better time in Leeds and London.
