My memories of this concert are honestly very vague. Perhaps because it was so overshadowed by the NEC concert the following night, which was more memorable for entirely the wrong reasons.

What I can remember is being very happy with the concert. Happy with an amazing set list, which included some surprises, and with the band's performances, which were on fire. I know I was convinced this was the best concert I'd ever seen, which is why I was so hyped for the following night's concert—the first time I had ever decided to see a band twice on one tour—and the reason the following night was so ... ah, well, let's write about that in its proper place. I'll leave this review here, and no doubt I'll find a lot more to say about tomorrow.
