I'm going to the show at Cardiff Coal Exchange on the 2nd June, really pleased to see Berserker in there as he has never played anything from that album all the times I've seen them (which is at least ten over the years from 1994 / 1995). Personally I'd like to hear Deadliner from the Sacrifice album
I guess spoilers don't matter now... anyway, I'm very impressed with the videos I've seen from these gigs so far. "Warriors" in particular sounds amazing, and I'm so happy to see this:
Re: the above video from the meet and greet... I hope he actually does re-master Sacrifice, the muddy sound is horrid!

I am really hoping I can score one of the dvds when (if) they hit Numan's store. Plus I wish they could release a live show as a two disc set.
EDIT: I wish they could have added Stormtrooper in Drag on to the set list, I really like that one.

New demo.
And new Officers collab "Petals"
I was on ebay a few minutes ago and found this...

I don't get why people sell stuff like that so soon after receiving it. To each their own. It's still gay though.
Exile limited grey vinyl arrived today for my Sacrifice collection (song Absolution is on this) -
Very nice --^
I'll have to post the photos of my copy of Exile. I noticed yours is a gatefold edition, mine sadly isn't. I think I got it two or three years ago.
Yes it's a recent release:

I need to transfer some money over to my checking account so I can get one of these.Originally Posted by Gary Numan Official Facebook
I'ma get one too!
I checked it out on the Numan store, I really was going to get it but I noticed the price tag... I checked the conversion of the dollar amount and it looked like, for me, it would be around $45 plus shipping... So. If they have some left after I get paid this week, then I'll pick it up but if not then I'm out of luck. I could try to pick one up off ebay sometime later on I suppose.
EDIT: It was 27 GBP

Yep, it's £26.83 including shipping to Canada. Still, I bought one!
Whilst at a gig in Wolverhampton the other night, I stumbled across something I never thought I'd see - a themed pub, the theme? Gary Numan. Couldn't believe it!
Here's a link to a few pics I took of the place.

Maybe there's VAT added to that order...?
I think I saw on Gary's Facebook that the dvds were sold out. So now I am looking to buy one later on from someone on ebay. Or if someone here would be kind enough to burn me a copy of the set? Seriously, I'll try to find one sometime soon.
I bought my copy. Got Jagged Live and Jagged Edge too while I was there. They good?
Can't wait for em to arrive. Cost me a fortune but i'm sure I won't regret it.

Only joking, they're pretty good. I enjoyed In A Dark Place and Fold live.
EDIT: Lol, fixed
