I must have been unlucky then because i didn't get it at my Milan gig.

Not necessarily among the very best, but those 2015 gigs with all the Psycho tour rotations bleeding into the sets was such a good era. They sounded ace live too.

Agreed. They were sounding so tight during that period.

Not necessarily the best performance, but the first two falsettos of this The Handler performance are pretty great:

Just giving you a taster of what the Drones World Tour Movie will be like ^^

Yay Drones songs, just what this thread, er, needs...

This is the best live version of The Handler apart from Download (where he got the lyrics wrong), right?
(Still not a patch on the studio version)

Also this should have gone on the Psycho DVD, not the Exeter version (even though I was at Exeter) for that outro:

blubb0r · 09-06-2018, 02:19 PM

the gloria gig was all in all very good

it had a brilliant version of supremacy as well... but it seems, that they've taken it down - it was on youtube.
and yeah, there've been fury and assassin

Clunge · 09-06-2018, 11:43 PM

Fucking hell, this was a great gig.

Perfect mix of old and new, little to no faff between songs, Matt on srsly good form. The sound is pretty superb too, drums perhaps just a little high in the mix but everything else is sweet. They even manage to get Chris's harmonies about spot on too.

I challenge anyone to watch that followed by the 2017/18 performances and not find it superior in every respect. I'm going to do everything I can to catch them early on the next tour. Was so glad to see them at Download 2015.

Yeah they were absolutely on form during that festival run in 2015. Dom and Chris in particular were so tight and Matt didn't constantly sound laboured 45 minutes into sets.

Mayan gig had some pretty good performances too, especially of Bliss.

TheSmallPrint02 · 10-06-2018, 03:11 PM

I think 2015 was definitely one of the highlight years for many songs, Bliss especially. The performance of it at Brighton Dome reminds me a lot of classic Origin-era Matt. Especially at the end of the final chorus where he drops the final line and has fun with the hullabaloons instead. Throws me back to Hullabaloo itself.

Jobby · 10-06-2018, 03:46 PM

^ weirdly similar experience

Had the exact same thought at the end of the Manchester performance when Matt ended up laughing through the last lines and eventually stopped to point and shout about something flying through the crowd over the mic (sumat like “What the fuck is that?? Looks like a fucking ____”). With the mad crowd and balloons, it felt like I’d stepped into through a 2001 wormhole for a minute. If only they’d dare close with it </3

Yes 2015 was a v good time guys, stop reminding me ‘cos I miss it. Though I do think we should appreciate 2017/18 for the By Request gigs, TAB, Stockholm and Showbiz’s comeback alone.

heyjackk · 19-06-2018, 10:46 AM

Not at all the best version of the song in any way shape or form but I didn't know where to put this lol. Was always wondering why Madness got omitted from the Mayan YT video.. now I know
