    Fingers crossed we get the 18-20 song setlists they were doing in the UK. Hoping they play Ghosts Will Haunt My Bones and Game Over from the new album. They've also start playing Now I Lay Thee Down again. Fingers crossed we get those tomorrow!

    Looking at recent set-lists, it's odd seeing Davidian in the middle of the set, instead of being the last song of the night.

    I think it's the last song before the first encore I think...

    It was the 13th song in the set when they played Rock City, Nottingham 2 nights ago.

    It seems Machine Head maybe on earlier than expected tonight, from Mael Mordha's Facebook page
    Unfortunately due to Machine Heads expanded show we have been cancelled tonight.

    I got to actual gig missing opening song due to them startin earlier.... Still saw more Machine Head than most that night.

    That they were gonna play a set in Fibbers rumour was going around about an hour after I went in there didn't believe it till I heard it from Dave Mc himself! Well
    3/4 MH dunno if Phil Demmel went there but he didnt take part.

    They played War Pigs,Iron Man,Blood Sweat the tears,Hallowed be Thy Name,Number Of the Beast,Creeping Death, Walk,Territory,The Trooper

    Last about 3 songs were a bit messy as they had crowd members up to try sing them! Twas mighty good.

    Really enjoyed last night. Perfect set for me of new and old.
    Band seem really tight. I think the new bass player has brought some
    much needed energy to the band.
    Have seen them many times but that was the most enjoyable for me.:D

    Band were on top form last night but I'm not really impressed by the material off the last two albums. They all follow the same kind of sound as the blackening but not as good.

    Found myself getting bored during those songs.

    Other than that I couldn't fault there performance and energy.

    Used to love this band. Met them in 2011 and interviewed them, wasn't massively impressed by their conduct .

    What happened?

    Really looking forward to this gig, saw them before when they opened for Slipknot in London and they were class!

    Didn't know about the new track, something else to look forward to now as well :)

    I'm a bit apprehensive about the gig based on it been in the Olympia.

    I was at Clutch there last year and it's an awful venue for a metal show imo, particularly for a band like Machine Head.

    Yeah I'm doing Glasgow also even though I have a ticket for Dublin (unsure if I can make it anyway),

    Was at me fair share of gigs in the Olympia including said Clutch gig and last time MH played there and share the same feelings tripe venue.

    Its a poor venue for a metal gig, aye. They made the most of it last time seeing them there, would reckon they'll do it again. Shame it has to be on the same night as Sabaton and Alestorm, would have been a good weekend for gigs but sure MH never fail to provide, and I'll be there once again.

    He was told not to sing for something like 4 days or something like that, there's a video apology on the Machine Head Facebook, so some of their French run will be rescheduled by the looks of it.
