That's what I thought of the XOYO too, Martin.

Really enjoyed the 2 Gigs at XoYo.
Probably my favourite setlist for a long time.

Really liked the lighting and textures work that was going on in particular across John's face throughout...

The sound was great from was I was standing righthand side front on 25th and lefthandside front on 27th.

I've put up some of my clips from the 25th and will put up the rest of those and the clips from the 27th on monday soon as I get a chance...

I know there's been a few live albums already over the years but I hope one comes out of this tour, especially as the inclusion of Hannah's violin on some of the Metamatic tracks works so well that I'd really like to get an official release quality cd of them. Also He's A Liquid never sounded better, it's now so menacing! The track Interplay is a current personal favourite so was great to here it loud and through air rather than on my headphones for a change. The bass guitar is also a great inclusion to the line up.

Best support act for me over the 2 gigs was Tara , her vocals really come across well live.

The dj set being played before the acts went on I noticed the volume coming from the speakers was really high (too high) where I was standing and did see someone with their fingers over their ears during that set. Luckily by the time John Foxx came on the sound volume was perfect.

Can't wait for the Roundhouse dvd to be released now....

Just uploaded Running Man from Bristol as well as previous Leamington version.

Compare & Contrast the venue sound between Leamington & Bristol (Full equipment)

Hannah is playing more effects & you can hear them clearly.

Sound @ Bristol is boxier.

Leamington is more expansive being a hall.
