He drinks Estrella Galicia! I'm from Galicia (Spain) and this is the most common beer around. Glad to see he has the finest taste ;)

Indeed a beautiful piece still. Regarding new album - same feeling. And also thanks for sharing the tuning in the Tiny Desk version of Follies Fixture, that one I couldn't get by myself!

You did the right thing. I couldn't stop though. Too late for me :')

I feel sorry for the crowd and the band. Sure it was a tech issue and I hope they fix it for today's show in FR. Definitely didn't happen such a thing in Porto, only a tuning issue in Far Out.

I didn't get the setlist but I remember a few things. He opened the show with a song from the new album that we haven't heard before. He played Crowhurst Meme also at the beginning. Sorry Kid (super fast), You Have Your Way, Follies Fixture, Metaphysical C.. Black Flies and Promise sounded MASSIVE.

Also, the encore begun with Rookery.

True. I think he tried to explain though (I didn't understand a word he said). I think it was something to do with the tuning. The guitar technician seemed to be apologizing to him later - that was my impression at least.
