The trucks had to reverse for a mile.

A fantastic show I think. PG is starting to smile after shows now.

A beautiful setting in the city square. Very old and very Italian. The trucks had to reverse for a mile to get in.

Our catering was a local restaurant, which of course was very good.
The only problem with shows like this is that the office and dressing
rooms are always a way away.

The new set-list is making the show faster and more powerful I think.
It was the same as Rome but with Lovetown and Washing added, and
finishing before encores on Secret World, which tonight made it the
perfect end to the set.

The audience could not have been better. Less mistakes from PG, and the band as a whole. DIY is finally working and not going wrong, Heat and Hands are perfect now...I wish they would all play drums at the end of Heat now .. as when we first tried it. Just need to add a few more hits and then its a great varied set that can change as we go.

Tony is in fine form these gigs' really digging in and working very well with Ged. Mel is so relaxed, she does not wear shoes on stage. David is laughing all the way through, which can only be a good thing. Angie's playing and voice feel like they have always been in the band and Rich ...well he is in his element these shows, and he's also coming up with the best face's, as well as sounding great.

Now on to the big one .. St. Marks Square, Venice.
