But that's who he is. Him, Lydon and Liam Gallagher all seem to be the masters of the slag. But I bet Mac couldn't actually name one Comsat Angels song. - --- Henry Biedenkapp wrote: > Last Week I expressed my Morrissey Rant on the > Bunnymen List in response to > the statement about Vegans are "nice" people.

I was just so bust trying to take in the performance that i didn't go for the wild head rockin thing! and then after the last encore i stayed by the stage cos even tho it had been so amazing i still expected more .. but the road crew started packing up & they was peeling off the setlist in front of me & i stuck out my pretty little hand & got the setlist!! HA!! kev says -- what you got another one!! & then walking out the odeon (sorry -apollo - whatever!) someone stops me & i have to hold it up while he fills in the blanks on his bit of paper ....BUT the setlist is a work of fiction I tyell you because i was right & we did not get all that we should have I'm going to write out the setlist & those with better memories & knowledge of Nick Cave than me can make the corrections But he CERTAINLY DID NOT do Baby I'm on Fire!!
