Our tickets came for Electric Proms too!
Yep Uni thing in Herts is tonight.

I will do my best (cider permitting) to remember the setlist and post a review!
Maybe we should have a Elbow/Doves drink on December 18!

Enjoy your weekends Smile

Setlist moved around a bit. they started off with Winter Hill, Last Broadcast found its way back in, they did Cedar Room at the end of the main set as well. But no real surprises, the set did feel a bit disjointed and there wasn't as much Kingdom of Rust as we expected. An hour only for the main set. Interesting venue, can't make out whether I liked it or not, stage wasn't high enough, but easy to get served.

Not seen much about the Doves Herts gig ...Editors on the other hand were amazing ...venue capacity 314 (and not full by my reckoning) ..back of a pub ..excellent stuff Laughing

It was a good gig not OH MY GOSH, just ok....I am hoping the Bulgarian Choir might help me lift my Doves spirits....

What an incredible combination, Doves with that particular choir, am listening on the radio live now, sounds great, and will definitely watch the TV coverage later.

LongLegs · Subject: Re: Doves Fri 23 Oct 2009, 09:19

The setlist went something like this, from memory:
Snowden
Winter Hill
Firesuite
10:03
Pounding
Jetstream
The Storm
Black & White Town
Sea Song
Greatest Denier
Kingdom of Rust
Last Broadcast
Catch The Sun
Birds Flew Backwards (with Baluji Shrivastav)
Cedar Room
There goes the Fear

It was great. However, the choir weren't involved as much as I thought they would be.
10:03 was particularly beautiful as was Birds Flew Backwards.
I love the Electric Proms and The Roundhouse, If only I had tickets for Mr Hawley....

Yes, I thought that, when they didn't even feature till 'firesuite' and when jimi was doing the last notes of the last song, If I'm remembering correctly, from the telly I thought they could have harmonised with him.

the TV broadcast wasn't the whole set. Don't know if the red button will be more? I think the radio probably was, thats without checking whats on iplayer now.

the red button was everything except the sea and the choir singing. but they put black and white town at the start for some unknown reason
