Their varied set was a mix of intense moments most notably with recent songs, Wastelands and Life is Golden, which made for an uplifting encore, and earlier crowd-pleasing anthems like Animal Nitrate, the Drowners, So Young, Filmstar and Trash that produced inevitable raucous singalongs. The highlights of the night involved the quiet potency of Brett Anderson’s solo rendition of Pantomime Horse, and the undeniably huge hit Beautiful Ones, which had been introduced with Brett addressing the crowd with, “If you don’t know the words to this, I don’t know why you’re here” before the band played their triumphant finale.
