Mac said that's the US release only at one of the other gigs when someone in the audience shouted "Do It Clean" - as we had discussed on a previous thread, we thought that it might have been better to stick those tracks and Broke My Neck as the encore rather than the mini greatest hits. If it goes to the States next year then they will certainly get Read It In Books and Do It Clean. Lucky barstewards.

The Americans will get the same setlist as the UK shows, if they ever decide to tour the shows across the pond............

Furthermore McCulloch has sang "Read It In Books" at his solo acoustic dates in the past......

How do you know that as nothing has been set for the States? There's no precedent to go on either to say that they would or wouldn't. Of course, they might not do Crocs/HUH in the States at all, in which case they won't be playing anything.

They wouldn't dare risk incurring the wrath of bf.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

By the way how are my former homies doing since they joined your posse?

Some great dude is slowly posting a load of vids from last night, not always the full songs. Whole Crocs set. Hope he puts up all of HUH as well. Selection below.

Of course they're gonna bring it over here - all that preparation, at least for the 10 or so stops they can count on. At least that is the story I am telling myself!!!! The reviews and the Youtube clips are very exciting.... Thanks.

Just wait until you see Dear John the original UK series not the US one as well.
