Maybe I'm wrong, but I always think the best performances come from the musicians connecting with the music, a quality that has to come from inside of the musicians themselves, it's not just about playing notes, which is why I don't think it's quite as straightforward as them just playing requests.

THANKS JOANA FOR WRITING! when did you do that? When we arrived at Mariana's house? Anyway I crashed in my bed as soon as we arrived 'home'...

MY TURN:

OK, Tom Kirk promised to us on Wednesday that he would come to barriers for us, and he did! We love you Tom! He was really stressed out, of course. He got a flag with stuff written on it and Joana's flag with muse! I forgot to give him something I scribbled but yeah

So we were moaning a lot because muse were late.... now we know why: FIREWORKS!

We see Chris entering the stage, alone, with a smirk on his face, smoking pipe and in a white suite! he totally looked like a wolstenbeast! EPIC! then fireworks above him and Mk ultra! God that was fucking amazing.
Also, you're always saying you've never seen Chris so happy and smiling a lot during a gig like in HAARP? Well, he smiled and laughed even more in this gig.... wow. WOW. All of them were SO happy! (yey Dom wasn't tired/sleepy anymore!) Chris even laughed/smiled while head banging! What a beast!
Everything was SO SO incredible! So many epic riffs during songs! And Stockholm Syndrome........ the intro, the outro, everything.... BACK TO 2004! Oh, he smashed the Glitterati into Dom's drumkit after it, I freaked out, but when I saw the guitar was ok I said to myself "epic".

Why hello there Morgan, your movements during cabasa play in SMBH were sexy! And Matt's sexy play during it ahahah! We raised Joana's sign and screamed MORGAN a lot of times and Chris and Matt looked at each others and cracked up laughing! Morgan was with a "wtf?" face!
Sound was so powerful! NSC was actually really cool live! We had a cheesy choreography to do, but we were so tight that it was impossible to do it.. I did some parts of it though!

Encore...Dom had Joana's flag!!! whooop! And as soon as I saw Matt picking the 7 string manson..I cried. What we saw during the day was indeed that manson.....
OLLY, NIALL -CE was EPIC! Amazing! So shut up. The piano outro so amazing....
UD laser were beautiful! When the chorus started, there were some colorful lasers RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, and with the smoke effect, looked like they were 3D and you could touch them! Magical!

Right before MWAH we started calling for Morgan again, then Dom Anderson come to us to take a picture to the sign! Whooop! Morgan love!

Everything was.... there are no words. Sure, setlist could have been a little longer, there was no US, Bliss, New Born... but I dont care. It was...amazing. Best gig of my live! I basically have no voice.

God.. you have no idea... how..amazing it was.

ps: After it we tried to ask the crew staff to call Anderson again, they didn't do it, but there was a really nice crew memebr that told uis he and kirk weren't there no more but I GAVE HIM the scribble for Muse/Kirk! He put in his pocket while smiling such a nice lad!

I want the tinsel chicken get-up back (why isn't there a decent shot of it or a video, from some Scandinavian gig?)

If Matt wants glitter he may be ready for that ulitmate glitter fest again. He did win NME worst dressed and he should live up to his award. Adorably of course.

[Yellow Regret]

Are there any more (than one) Citizen Erased videos?

Unfortunately he didn't actually. He was nominated but Gaga won (as well as winning best-dressed). He definitely deserved it though

[Quinha]

Last night's concert was amazing!! I had so much fun. =D Loved Citizen Erased!! I'm so happy they played it! The whole concert was great and I think they loved it too.

Kinda looks like the people suit left out in the rain.

Would someone kindly confirm the re-broadcasts available to watch later today?

I found two links from justin.tv that say at 23:00 local time there will be some broadcasts, but I suppose just 7 songs?

http://www.livesoccerpt.org/MEGA-FM-h55.htm
http://www.livesoccerpt.org/RFM-h57.htm

Are there video webcasts for the WHOLE show which will be awesome?

And any Snow Patrol rebroadcasts I wonder (sorry off topic)?

Some pics I've took:

[JoanaBliss]

i have just been told that we probably won't get interviews. we didn't when they came to Portugal in November and it seems like we won't get some this time around too.
a source told me that, but i can't be 100% sure.

[blitzy blab]

Oh my god. Fuck me sideways. I think I liked this show better than when I saw them in November.

First off, I swear I tried to be the closest to the stage I could, but when I arrived, which was right when the doors opened, 1st road was already taken so... When the first and the second band played I was like 4th or 5th row, but unfortunately I´m a little girl you see, and I didn´t really manage some assholes pushing us on purpose against the side barriers...so after some serious bruising and lack of air (at some point there was not even space for my boobs which are not that big ) we had to move a bit to the side. So I ended up sidestage but still quite close, and because the ground at RiR is not flat and could see really really well from where I was standing.

So yeah, Snow Patrol was really cool...I swear those guys had never seen such a big crowd in their lives because the singer was in awe! He´s so funny even though he, in his words, "fucked it up twice!"

Then....fireworks...and bam! MK Ultra....oh dear, glitzy Matt, white Chris smoking the pipe and Dom rocking as usual.
I really enjoyed the setlist. The opening songs were NSC sounded waaaaaay better live and even though no one knew the lyrics I found people to be enjoying it quite a lot!
Dom´s drums sounded so fat and perfect...it could´ve been because I was right there near the sound columns... but I can still hear those drums in my head And at some time he came on stage with a portuguese flag! weee
Matt was on fire. He played a bit of Stocholm Syndrome at double tempo. That man is unbelievable.
Citizen Erased... damn it was emotional, at least for me I mean, at that point I could see the whole stage clearly, so seeing those three guys playing it and rocking was At the end I swear I had tears in my eyes. Really.

I don´t have many or decent pictures, too far way for that... but my humble camera actually has some really cool videos that I might upload later.

Sorry, for the long post I´m still a bit hyper.... and sore...
