Two and a half years ago I saw Marillion on their Brave tour, and this is exactly what they did - play all of the Brave album from beginning to end (it was a "concept" album), have a short break and come back for the older stuff. Boys for Pele seems to me to be more "in order" than Utp and LE - that is, there seems to be a thread running from the beginning to the end of the album. Playing the whole thing live may carry this across. Just my opinion, Richard. ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V1 #166 *************************************
