Hi all,
Personally,I love the gong voice in the BYWY and I think it fits the song quite well.I saw once that they used the gong in Portsmouth but didn't see any other where they used it. I wondered if you know any more live performances of BYWY with the gong thing in it. |

I may be wrong but i think they've used it 6 times. Yes, i'm probably wrong. lol The original 5 gigs where they played the whole album 12 months ago and one last October but i can't remember the venue. :) |

Ben
I've just found the video you were talking about. Apparently it was in Astoria and yes it's on October 8th. ;)

My husband plays drums and he said that a gong is super hard to transport as it's surprisingly delicate for being so huge. It can crack very easily.
So my guess as to why it only made appearances on the rehearsal tour is it would very hard to transport all around the world. I guess renting one in every city would also be a pain since you couldn't be sure of the quality you'd be getting and all of that. |

Yes it was there at the Astoria in London back in October. It was amazing seeing Neil giving it a thrashing :-)
I'm assuming it won't be travelling around Germany, France and Spain though. Shame really.... |
