However, the loudest cheer was reserved for their biggest hit single ‘Mr Jones’.

Describing new track ‘Washington Square’, singer Adam Duritz said: “This song is about getting your shit together, which is difficult for me sometimes.”

Rounding off the set, he added: “Thank you so much for all these years. It is such a fucking great place to come. See you at Dublin Point at Christmas.”
