Hey guys!

Amazing gig! Wondering if anyone knows why they cut the sound in the middle of Star Guitar?

Was Tom smoking on stage?

How did you get to see this?



My life is a boat, being blown by you. With nothing ahead, just the deepest blue... To me you're like a setting sun. You rise then you're gone.

Hey Mojo, according to Gildeon Coe when they were trying to transfer the performance last night for a direct feed it sounds as though some one pulled a fire alarm or something.....I sure you might have heard that though. It could have been a power short though. I've been to a few gigs when that has happened.

I'd actually like to see this if any footage is available. Just kind of a lurid curiosity, I guess.

The same thing happened with the power cuting out in Denver, didn't it? During Star Guitar, too I believe.

Gillenium - not much to see - it was just as the track is starting to slow down towards the end of the first part of the set, and suddenly it just completely cut out. People were just stunned for a while - Ed left the stage almost immediately; Tom fiddled with stuff for a bit and then left.


A girl who was near us nipped to the toilet and said there'd been an announcement in there that "due to unforseen circumstances, the event had finished early, could everyone leave" - to which we all laughed. There was a bit of chanting then maybe five minutes later, a big cheer when the boys came back on, fiddled for a bit and then kicked into Surface to Air.


Look at the transcript thing here:

I'm not suprised. I've been preaching this for years on here. Star Guitar is too powerful to be contained. :P

Indeed. No doubt the supreme awesomeness of Star Guitar overloaded the circuits and sent the whole production into a tailspin.
