On a purely selfish level I'd want them to not do a second leg next year, and just go straight into a new fresh European tour next year with a fresh setlist of purely rare and underplayed songs.

There were a few mistakes last night I noticed.
Bruce losing his place in Stranger
Bruce about to introduce Can I Play With Madness instead of Death of the Celts
Bruce and Adrian out of time during the chorus of Wasted Years.
I'm sure there were a few more but it didn't detract from a...
