The inaccurate nature of this "review" is quite discouraging.Whilst I can’t remember the exact order of each song on the set list, I can categorically say that the above is not a reflection of what they played. Much to my disappointment there was no plastic bag and yet it is stated on the above list. Genetic Engineering was the penultimate song and The day the world turned day-glo was the final song on the main part of set and also the song they played on the second encore and yet the article somehow completely fails to record this. It also misses out two further songs-Junk food and a song about the war. Strange observations indeed, I can’t help but think the person writing the article was not in attendance!Warrior in Woolworths, I am a cliché and Identity, for me were songs of the night!Warrior in WoolworthsHumble he may seemBehind his servile innocenceHe plots and schemes!The evening was not really that “raucous” but more nostalgic and retrospective. It was a great atmosphere with an eclectic mix of people in the crowd celebrating together one of the most authentic, clever and underrated bands of all time!POLY! POLY! POLY!
