Doves did Jetstream last night?

Couldn't be the NO song, as they would most certianly named it correctly as Jizzstream if it were
I'm trying to imagine what it would sound like if Doves played it.
I'm not getting very far.
Amazingly, and this really is amazing, I was wearing a Doves t-Shirt last night. As my colleague pointed out, it says SOME CITIES on the front and it's got the names of some cities on the back.
4-5 new tracks it looks like. Doves are my favorite band. I would have loved to have been there. Eagerly awaiting the new record....

Can you wait?
No.
I'm off down the South Bank now to hang out with all the screaming girlies by the backstage door.

I'm back now. It was shit. No screaming birds or nuffink.

Winter Hill as a title is far too near to Coldplay - Violet Hill for my liking
"Jetstream" is probably not J-E-T
Some lyrics posted on Doves from the gig would suggest it's a new song (3rd line down is reference to Jets)
Although one reviewer says it is a bit NO
2nd new one had Jez singing. Totaly dancey beat that reminded me of Stephen Morris, then got all syncopated at the end. Loads of keys in this one too - ickle Rebelski reminded me of Gillian in the New Order Perfect Kiss video turning swtiches for some reason during this. My favourite of the night - think Jez had a lyric sheet which must either mean it's really new, or he's loosing his mind
Although it was a nice surprise to hear Jonnie Walker play Krafty on his Radio 2 show this morning.I'm not a fan of Walker.He was sitting in for Terry Wogan.

for the rest of the world outside of the north west, winter hill (on the outskirts of Bolton) has the antenna that transmits TV to the north west, which makes it quite well known in the area, paradoxically, if you live on it, TV reception is shite

T'other side - Horwich/Rivington
Saw them tonight and no, it's not the New Order song.
It's better
Leggy D told me so it must be true.

That is really not a major achievement, or a musical yardstick.

Exactly the same setlist as Johnny posted though.
I've just got in. It's been a long night!
But, at least I got to meet this girl from Nathan Barley...
...who I was desperately trying to work out where we knew each other from ...
.. until her more famous friend turned up and gave her a cheeky squeeze...
.. at which point I went "You're from Nathan Barley!" and she went, "Yeah, I am, but he isn't!"
Ac-tors!

Nah. They're alright, but just alright. Place was mobbed but there just wasn't the intensity that I think New Order have had in recent years - well, maybe not New Order, but at least New Order fans. I 'borrowed' Ally's ticket near the end to meet a mate then walk him back in on Ally's ticket right the way to the front with no grief. Even at the worst New Order gig in recent year you couldn't make your way through the crowd!
Doves are technically better than New Order, but I still just don't geddit.
More interesting prospect was the Manics. Wasn't busy but they had a right 'ardcore down the front of 17 year old girlies all wearing leopard skin and/or feather boas. Now, that's what I call a firm!!!

Shit venue though. I thought it was the RFH?
Isnt it tough for any band or its fans to be intense in that place?

i'd agree with manics live now on anything.saw them at glaso around 1999 and they were ok (ish),saw them glaso last year,much improved,no,they were fucking great actually.but ive always found doves very consistant over the many years ive seen them.i think i know what you mean though,none of them or many other groups have a footy type excited crowd like the order had

Ah yes i remember her from Nathan Barley.Always wished they'd have done a second series of that.Just a second wouldn't have been too much to ask would it? Ok, maybe not 3 because that may have killed it but 2 would have been good.
As for the lad, didn't he appear in I'm Alan Partridge? he worked at the Travelodge?

Doves fans.not sure about them 
.Saw Doves at Birmingham Academy in 2002 and the audience was all young early 20s just chatting and choppsing about crap all through the gig - not really moshing or moving at all really!!.Then when i saw them at Manc v Cancer 2006 the girl in front was moaning about people pushing her,erm, in the moshpit.So i've not formed a great opinion of Doves fans.

hmm, well whenever i finished taking pics at new order gigs in the press pit at new order gigs, ie after the 3rd song, i had to make my way in & always managed to get to the front okay
