    Well you might be dissapointed if you see them live this november as they will no doubt be promoting the new album.

    only 4 songs off whatever people say i am, that's disappointing if it's true. i hope ur not just judging the set list at the reading and leeds festival alone, bands do tend to have different set lists for festivals compared to regular concerts.

    I have been looking forward to see them since malahide in 07, they were so brillant. one of the best gigs i ever went to. humbug deserves more respect than it is getting at the moment, a smooth and mature sounding record. Crying Lightning is gonna be great live! i hope their set list is different from reading/leeds, where they didn't play Mardy Bum:mad:

    I saw these guys in NYC twice about a month ago. Once was as part of a big festival, which to be honest wasnt great. Two days later I saw them in a small club venue, and it was fantastic. Really one of the best gigs i've ever been to. Maybe i could have done with a couple more songs from the 1st/2nd albums, but it was still great. The 3rd album had only just leaked, so i didnt really know the songs.

    Anyway, i'd imagine this will be a great gig.

    Has the support been announced yet?

    the setlist looks poor to be fair. they are one of my favourite bands but to only play 3 songs of the first album. thats ridiculous

    no mardy bum is a joke. they got booed in Reading in August for not playing enuf 1st/2nd album material

    im not mad about the new album, a half good album, i think they sold out so they would have a more american sound and so to speak break the american market. cornerstone is their best song yet i have to admit though

    Humbug, an american sound?? Cannot hear that for the life of me to be honest. Its just different from the 2nd, like the 2nd was different from the 1st.

    I think its a great album, if people want to hear more songs like the 1st album, go listen to the 1st album. Theyre maturing, they cant be singing about girls texting or drinking in bars forever.
