really brilliant gig. love it when a band plays a smaller venue - the atmosphere was amazing. i was ready to right off the pumpkins after i saw them in Nottingham but glad i gave them another chance. i'll defo see them if they come back to Brum (which Billy said they would!)

I agree Mike was amazing on drums. Great show. Shame this academy is such an awkward venue.

oh my GOD that was amazing. went to the brixton show and had about a quarter of the atmosphere of this one! Billy clearly loves it when audiences show their appreciation.. Soma and Ruby were so good!! Didn't miss lack of Machina and Adore stuff despite them being my favourite albums. and HOW ACE is Mike?

I can't begin to explain how good that was. Their one if not my favourite band again. Plus it's the only time I fucked up my ankle but was happy about it.. standing was insane, great atmosphere from birmingham!

Bruised all over and aching like hell, but that was fucking awesome. Even if I did tear my 18yr old Siamese Dream tshirt! Loved Geek USA and Soma, encore was ace. And nice to hear a bit of Gish material, definitely wasn't expecting that. A good time was had :P

Spoiler much captain? :P Apparently they dropped another fan favourite single in Brixton last night, maybe he's starting to play a bit more to the section of the crowd that just plain haven't listened to the new stuff. Hope we all have a grand time, I'll be the hairy dude yelling for Machina tracks!!
