yeah the secret machines bored the hell out of me.



i only just got home (stayed overnight in manchester), it was easily the best live show i've ever been to. setlist was the same as in the paris thread, the crowd were mental all night



loads of the people there went on to see the Plump DJ's at a nearby club aswell, it was a nice continuation of the night

Wow my first ever chems gig and it was the best experience ever!!



Ian taylor (sp?) was a decent warm up



Suicide machines were not my thing although in a strange way you could say that they complemented the chems style?



First things first they hit off with a classic hey boy hey girl tune which everybody went mad for. Cant really remember much as it was my first chemical experience that night and loved it!



Ed and tom on many occasions seemed to over awed by the whole atmosphere and just stopped and hugged each other.

The crowd were awesome and one of the nicest friendliest atmospheres you could be in



The visualisations were fantastic. going through castles travelling around london, spinnin red robots etc fuckin fantastic



heres some pics off my phone



If anyone could provide me with the set list? that would be mega



Ive got some short videos but I dont know where to host them?

Thanks Fing, it sounds like you had a great time. It's good to read about such a great crowd, that vibe really makes the show. Also good to read that the Chems took a breather every so often and hugged each other - very cute. And thanks for the pics. Hold Tight Manchester! I love it!!
