One of the best gigs I've ever been to.......and at 46 believe me I've been to a lot. Never felt a floor bounce like that, ginger & the guys seemed to enjoy it soooooo much too. I'll leave others to do setlist stuff as i usually stuff that up

for me thats Oxford, Wolverhampton, Leeds, Sheffield, Manchester, Newcastle, Glasgow, Belfast, Aberdeen & Blackpool done just Mansfield tomorrow night and I've gotta get back to work monday so can't get to last three :( Mind you one of the best fortnights of my life :D

Last night was the best I've seen them. Also saw them at Notts this tour and even tho the crowd went more crazy at Notts, the atmos in last night's gig was astonishing.

I remember at one point one of the roadies stood on ginger's mic, think it was in an instrumental early on, and it bounced and hit ginger on the forehead. He looked a bit nonplussed but he took it in his stride. Surprisingly.

Gotta agree, last night was as good as I've seen 'em.
Problem is, I was stood right in front of the speaker to our left, and I still can't hear anything properly!!!
Sign of a good night :D

yeah last nite woz totally awesome even ginge kept smirking when the crowd were singing the lyrics back to him, only 2 things wud have made the nite complete! 1, more songs off the new album and 2, more banter from the man himself but hey i can understand his reasons 4 not doing more of either. oh and it woz cool to put a face to dave c (sorry if i talked a load of bollox the wife sez i talk it all the time but i blame the alcohol) and it woz cool 2 meet CJ outside after the gig and also the sound man from NEW ZEALAND he seemed a really cool dude. roll on the december tour hopefully it will include BLACKPOOL. and 2 those who never made it i wud seriously consider saving up a few more pennies and getting a b+b and coming down even if it means sacrificing dates a little close to home, it really is an awesome venue, YOU WON`T BE DISSAPOINTED

The Riffs gig in Blackpool was superb, great to meet Nig1012 and Stephen James Buckley.
My son Connor loved it and can't wait to see The Wildhearts again, he said the gig was 'awesome'! He's not wrong!

Well done to Martin for getting the Wildhearts in a tiny venue like Riffs.

Bah! Left it too late to book tickets this time around. Gutted. sounds like it was a blinder.

So, any mention of them coming back? I know they seem to enjoy playing there.
