Nope, not a sausage - this bloke arrived in a car and delivered the tickets (asking me to sign a bit of paper)...

do you always sign things when asked by random people

Sorry memly, only just seen this. Gaz got the Brixton tkts - not sure if he has them yet... MCR tkts came by private delivery I tink...

Tickets arrived yesterday

Got mine also.

w00t.

Jesus, it feels like the night before Christmas!!

What the f**k was up with screens? No video? Very poor! Gig was great but seriously missing the visual elements, especially for the newbies.

They obviously had a problem with them - hence the ladder before the gig started...

how good was Manchester Academy last night?

first time i've seen them since 2001. its nice to get re-acquainted with a good old friend.

last night was my 5th Orbital concert, but the first time i've seen them do `Out there somewhere`.

Fucking brilliant.

Been to all the tours since 1994 and this was the best gig (Saturday night) I have been to in a very long time. Took my brother in law with me who doesn't really do dance music but I could tell he was impressed and never stopped dancing all night. Roll on next year for a new album and tour.
PS the section of tracks after 'out there somewhere' was absolutely amazing !!!!

PPS if you are reading Loopz, I forgot to get the USB stick of the gig afterwards, any idea if these will be available to buy by post, I am kicking myself now for not getting one !!!

Problem wasn't at ladder end.

Been watching Phil & Paul now for years. First Gig I seen was after the first green album, even though it looks more yellow!! Infact I have seen them over 10 times now and I must admit that they just keep getting better and better. They don't need to release any new stuff, they have such a good following and they rework the old stuff soo well, but then again, It would be good to hear something new from them. Lets hope this is the start of a newly reformed Orbital!!! Well done lads, sooo glad to have you's back !!

P.S. Got one of the wrist bands - Excellent recording quality, had to be straight out of the desk, absolutely brilliant!!!!

Just a question, i have always wondered what there really early tours were like? how much equipment did they take with them? and how much lighting/visuals? can you remember what tracks they did?
