Revival Tour - Nottingham Rock City

Did any one manage to work out what the extra bridge/ verse in Great Expectations was. It was good whatever it was. Im not sure if it was a new thing from Brian or a cover or part of another song.

I'm 99% sure Boxer wasn't played, because I was waiting for that and Goodnight Irene in particular!

I thought it wasn't, Old White Lincoln was instead, which I was happy with anyway

I wrote a little bit on my blog from the gig, you can find it here.http://ktpland.blogspot.com/2011/10/revival-tour-get-ticket-now-before-its.html not got the greatest of pics cos we hung back to enjoy the music. i also took videos of all the HC & TGA songs but the sound ain't great (2 of them are on my blog).
if you're bored pop along & have a read, if not no worries!

was really nice to catch up with Alexander again but didn't see anyone else off the forum, i'm rubbish at recognising anyone!

I think you're talking about the Alkaline Trio verse?
I wasn't there, but I saw this...





I can't go on... these limbs have grown to heavy.
I need that song... those trusty chords to pull me through.
And early on... they saw the warning signs and symptoms all day long.
Wonder how far from here we'll fall


Unless he was changing it up at different shows?

Anyways, I gotta admit I was fangirling a little when I watched that, fantastic little addition.

*edit* Oh sorry, and the song is Warbrain, for anyone interested - great tune.
Haha... and back again to edit - I saw this was posted in another tread. User fail! Sorry!

I want Brian's t-shirt!

i seriously hated that jesus got cancelled because of them idiots.

An awesome show. I felt embarrassed by the loud mouth idiots chatting and shouting through Brians set and loved how he put them down. They even had the cheek to argue with him after the show.

So they actually stayed after the show to meet Brian and argue with him? That is pathetic! I was so happy when Brian shot the down what did Brian have to say to them after the show when they were arguing with him?

First I came out and the guys who were chatting were justifying themselves to Ian and Brian backed up Ians point when he came out that theres lots going on in his head and that just pushed him over the edge. Some chirpy girl shouted wanker at him but i dont htink he heard and she then went over and began argueing too. Brian didnt apologise but I think he made friends with a couple and agreed to disagree with another couple.

I was embarrassed. they ruined Cherry Blossoms (the quietest song) the guy deserves respect and they were just kids not ready to hear what Brian had to offer.

That was my last show on tour unfortunately but its been awesome!

Brian did come out again at the end and I think he apologised and said "I was a dick, sorry" He lost his temper at them, and put them down pretty harsh when they were talking about how this is the best day ever. One of them requested a song Brian had played before and he said "Don't be a fucking idiot" apparently.
They argued after the show and Brian walked away. But he did come back and smooth things over with t-shirts/guestlist etc.

That's what I've heard from the people involved.

I'm pretty sure Boxer wasn't played at Nottingham.
Hopefully they'll play it at the London show.
I managed to get a good deal on 2 ebay tickets yesterday for the London show after having such an awesome time at the Notts show. Can't wait.

Steady Now, saw you on the night but of course you wouldn't have known who I was

Hahaha, you probably knew that was from Nottingham last November. Was awesome.

I was also about two/three people away from you at the Merchandise bit on Revival in Nottingham. I love haunting people like this...

Hey guys similarly to the Manchester show. Ive just written up what I remember from my own experience of the Nottingham Revival Tour show. Its been a couple weeks me getting round to this so its not as detailed as the first post but it may still interest some of you. A few of my pics are included...
