I'm dreadful for remembering song titles so even worse to recall all of a setlist! But I can tell you that since the support act were detained at Gatwick because of a lack of work permits Travis were their own support act! Great for us the audience because we got so much more time with Travis on stage! In the support slot they played a lot of songs from the new album 'Ode to J Smith'....including Broken Mirror, Last Words and Song to Self if memory serves correctly. Don't think the rest of the tour will be quite as lucky for the audience as having the extra hour with Travis!
For the main part of the gig it was all my favourites, their best known hits....including All I want to do is rock, Tied to the 90s, Happy, Side, Closer, Driftwood, Flowers in the Window, Sing and Why does it always rain on me?......obviously more but hopefully someone else will recall the entire setlist.......! Oh and they played a very good B side....could well have been the B side to 'Ode to J Smith'.
There were some rather drunk women near us who talked so loudly throughout the gig that despite the loud music at times they were drowning out what Travis was saying so I missed some titles of songs.....not quite sure why folk go to gigs if they don't want to listen to the music....unless its just to spoil it for others!

Since I forgot my watch and my mobile it'd at best be a guess! All I know is that I arrived at the Ironworks between 7.15/7.30.....they played their first set some time after 8.00/8.30 ish maybe. Had normal length interval and I'd say finished after/around 11pm since it was c11.15pm when I left. So main set including encore between 90 minutes to 2 hours. |

I won't mind if more support bands are detained because of work permits if it means longer slots from Travis ! :-D |
