Especially as (outside of the MIF thing) they seem to simply play the same core set every night, swapping in and out the same 2-3 tracks. I get that it pays the bills better than releasing new albums but it can't continue to be that much fun for them can it?

When you look at how The Cure put their shows together (similar number of albums and even longer since their last studio album) - they seem to pride themselves on playing longer so that the deeper cuts get an airing. No reason why NO shouldn't be doing the same thing - other than laziness

I mean, in their defense most of the members are in their 60s and playing an hour plus set probably takes a lot of them. I don't want to ask too much from them because they're not the spring chickens they used to be. Although, maybe an intermission could be possible?

But I do feel like the setlist should be upgraded. Give us back Regret, Krafty, AoC, and maybe a new addition. The MC album cycle has been over for 3 years now so maybe just give us Plastic and Singularity or Tutti Frutti. As well as 2 JD songs: Decades and LWTUA.

I'm seeing them in Miami for 2 nights and I'm gonna be so disappointed if they end up playing the same set every night.

Monkhouse reveals himself to actually be Morley lurking on NOOL under a pseudonym... Suspected it for years. Been meaning to ask you about those ZTT sleeve ramblings...

What-s the difference between Paul Morley and a hysterectomy? A hysterectomy is not a TOTAL twat.
