You are the best band in the world.

Which opening track do you use?

Stand Up For Rock 'N' Roll or Raise The Flag.

Which one would YOU choose?

I like Stand Up as an opener because of the building up, getting faster and faster But it also works really well as the first song of the encore

I agree.

Last night at Pompey they opened with Raise the flag and finished with Stand up. Bloody excellent gig. My ears are still ringing.

You saw them last night? What was it like - cant wait for them to come back to New Zealand!

Hi dirtyrocker1503

The band were awesome from the very first song - Raise the flag - to the very last - Stand up. Everything inbetween was magical and it was a real shame when it came to an end. Here is the setlist:

1.Raise The Flag 2.Hellfire 3.Chewin' The Fat 4.Diamond In The Rough 5.Blonde, Bad And Beautiful 6.Girls In Black 7.What's Eatin' You 8.Born To Kill 9.Cheap Wine & Cheaper Women 10.Back On the Bottle 11.Heartbreaker 12.No Way But The Hard Way 13.Too Much, Too Young, Too Fast Encore: 14.Runnin' Wild 15.Stand Up for Rock 'N' Roll

Epic show last night at Bristol, same setlist I think, ears still ringing.

"health & safety" will have been having kittens when Joel lobbed a Stella up to the balcony :)

Hammersmith tomorrow can't wait!

Stand up is still the best opener tho, it's just got opener written all over it.

I think the setlist is the same most nights, except for that number 10 slot, where they have played Steel Town, It Ain't Over, and a couple others.

@Blackjack: Dou you get a met and greet with the boys?

@dirtyrocker1503:

Steel Town at number 10 will suit me, love that track!

@dirtyrocker1503:

Sadly not. I'm not sure about the other shows though.

After the Pompey gig waited out the back and eventually got to speak with Joel & Ryan who signed our posters. What bloody nice guys. Really down to earth and very friendly.
