Advantages: Very talented musicians with great songs

Disadvantages: None

I have had the pleasure of seeing the band live twice. The first time was at V festival in 2006. This was part of a small UK tour where they were not just playing the hits but also testing out new material. The setlist was:

01 Airbag
02 2+2=5
03 The National Anthem
04 My Iron Lung
05 Morning Bell
06 Fake Plastic Trees
07 The Bends
08 Videotape
09 Nude
10 The Gloaming
11 Paranoid Android
12 All I Need
13 Pyramid Song
14 Lucky
15 Just
16 Idioteque
17 Street Spirit

Encore 1:
18 You And Whose Army?
19 Karma Police

Encore 2:
20 Everything In Its Right Place
21 Creep

As you can see they rolled out the hits, even including "Creep"! The crowd was on form aswell tonight, which they always seem to be at UK festivals. This is probably one of the best gigs I have ever been to, the band played together so well.

The second time I saw them was at Rock Werchter festival in Belgium, where they played some of the rarer stuff such as "How To Dissapear Completely", "Optimistic" and "Climbing Up The Walls" - This was incredible to see live. However the crowd wasn't as good at this festival and the band were not in a good mood, Thom stated on his blog a few days after that he had been losing it the past few days and that the Rock Werchter show didn't go that great.

The setlist for Rock Werchter was :
01 Arpeggi
02 The National Anthem
03 Lucky
04 All I Need
05 There There
06 Nude
07 Climbing Up The Walls
08 The Gloaming
09 15 Step (Thom not being too strict on the lyrics)
10 Faust Arp (Thom: "Is it true Neil Young played here last night? Should be enough for anyones lifetime to be on the stage as Neil Young"
11 How To Disappear Completely
12 Jigsaw Falling Into Place
13 Optimistic
14 Just
15 Reckoner
16 Idioteque
17 Bodysnatchers

Encore:

18 Videotape
19 You and Whose Army?
20 2+2=5
21 Paranoid Android
22 Everything In Its Right Place

Summary: You must see this band live.
